One of the most important aspects of running a hotel is making sure that the rooms are as clean as possible. This will make your guests have a high opinion of the hotel, and will go a very long ways towards reducing complaints. In addition, many guests notice a spotlessly clean room, and make a note that your hotel is the one that they want to stay at in the future. An excellent way to make sure that your hotel rooms are cleaned is to provide your staff with a hotel housekeeping checklist.
This is a great hotel housekeeping checklist that is free and easy to download. The hotel housekeeping checklist can be formatted so that it perfect for your hotel and it is even possible to format it so that you can have individual lists.
How to Format this Hotel Housekeeping Checklist
- Try formatting the checklist for each different style of room in your hotel. This can include having a different checklist for double rooms, smoking rooms, suites, and rooms with sitting areas.
- Format the hotel housekeeping checklist so that it contains instructions to clean each piece of furniture in the room. This should include things like cleaning the sofas, chairs, beds, and cots.
- Format the checklist so that it details what should be done to clean each piece of furniture. Include easy to forget or had to do tasks like cleaning underneath pieces of furniture, and vacuuming the crevices in couches.
- Included a space where the hotel employee can identify themselves as the person who cleaned the room, when they cleaned the room, and how they would rate the overall quality of the room before they cleaned it. This will help you keep better records of your cleaning operation, and will help you to better coach your employees.
- Include a space where employees can write down if anything has been broken or stolen from the room. This will allow you to quickly bill guests for items that have been damaged. A good way to do this is to have a list of everything that should be in the room, and boxes the employee can check to show that they are there undamaged.
