inculcate the right kind of skills, knowledge & attitude to make a career as a
successful hotelier. I am also thankful to my College and to Mrs. Anjali
Chatterton & Ms Amritha Ullal for giving me an opportunity to get trained
in such a wonderful property.
Abstract
My whole training period was wonderful learning experience. I got to deal with skilled
and experienced staff members who were very supportive both in getting the work done
and providing information.
Working with experienced staff has helped me a lot in learning how to get the maximum
work done in short period of time. Working with them even made me value manpower
and time.
My whole training period has made me more confident about my communication skills as
I was in constant contact with the guest, seniors and other staff members.
This training has made see the Hotel Industry in its true light. It has made me realize that
Hotel Industry is much more than just fun & pleasure; it’s a lot of hard work.
Once again I would like to thank all the people who gave me an opportunity to feel the
Hotel Industry so closely and even those who helped me through my whole training
period.
FRONT OFFICE
INTRODUCTION
Front Office deals in accommodating guest in the hotel and is a very important
department. It is an essential department because it deals with the allocation of rooms,
which is a major income of hotel. The way in which a receptionist deals with the guest
has a direct impact on the guest. Front Office is one department, which deals with guest
directly. A receptionist, with his salesmanship can induce the guest to stay at the hotel
and in this way it increases the revenue of the hotel.
The person at the reception carries the perpetuation of the hotel with him. They take
down the Check INS of the guests and groups. They hand over the keys to the guest too.
The first thing done by an assistant is to check whether the guest has a reservation or not.
In case he is not shown any reservation and the guest is a walk in then the guest can be
straight away be refused in case he is suspected of any untoward thing. Incase the guest
has a booking then a registration card is given to him to fill up board.
The require details. (The card attached along with the page for every detail). Then the
guest is handed over the key to his room, which the assistant checks on his room, which
the assistant checks on his computer and allots.
The bellboy then leads the guest away to his room. Then the assistant enters the details of
the card into his computer. An identification number is given to the guest who is written
down on the registration card. Then the rate is checked in the computer and after
everything is ascertained then the entry is made in the guest arrival register.
“First Impression is the last impression”. The first department with which guest comes in
contact. Front Office department is just one of the departments, working towards the
satisfaction of the guest.
For a hotel ‘Room Sold Revenue’. Rooms are the major operating revenue producing
department. It covers 80-85% of hotel revenue & does not need investment frequently.
The Front office staff should be polite, tactful and smart enough to tackle the situations
like walk in, scanty baggage etc. they should also be ready to help, alert & market smart.
The goal of the front office department is to provide a guest with efficient service and
fulfill its role. Its role can be dubbed as to reserve, receive, and assign room to guest.
Front Office Department in the hotel is responsible for sale of hotel room’s trough
systematic methods of reservations followed by registration and assigning rooms to
customer.
Goal of the Front Office department is to earn maximum revenue through sales of the
rooms. ‘Sale’ means the use of hotel room at a price. But in turn, it should also satisfy the

to the guest.
