How do hotels welcome guests?

Begin by greeting guests with a smile, and by name (if known). Hold eye contact with the guest and be attentive throughout the interaction. Hotel staff must have a good knowledge of your hotel, rooms, amenities, and products. This will ensure that your guests are as informed as possible and will help your staff upsell.
