Running a successful hotel isn’t just about stylish decor - it’s also about keeping everything spick-and-span. In Hotel Architect, maintaining a clean and well-kept hotel is crucial for guest & critic satisfaction, or maybe you have other ideas if you’re feeling the chaotic gremlin vibes! For those that want to please those critics with a clean and friendly hotel, here’s how you can keep it spotless and running smoothly. [h3]1. Hire a Housekeeper! [/h3] One of the first things you do when building your hotel is build a laundrette which requires a housekeeper, but they also clean other areas of your hotel too. Each area of your hotel, from the lobby to guest rooms, requires regular attention. Housekeeping staff will clean rooms daily, ensuring that every guest enjoys a fresh and welcoming space. Don’t forget the common areas too - keeping them tidy is key to making a great first impression! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40373120/cc7213cdb45e9968597716f0c711fbbc6e4596da.png[/img] [h3]2. Keep an Eye on Maintenance [/h3] No one likes a leaky faucet or a broken elevator. In Hotel Architect, regular maintenance work done by a janitor will help you keep on top of issues before they become major problems! If you have a big hotel, you may need an entire team to regularly inspect appliances and other facilities. We also recommend building a workshop for your janitors, this way they will have all the tools they need for the job!

[/h3] If your bins are full and there is no way to leave the rubbish in the bin outside, your guests (and staff) will start to leave trash on the floor! This is your reminder to regularly order a waste pickup! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40373120/a5fd3e5712f0f8d88093c90a30c4e452baefe174.png[/img] [h3]4. Listen to Guest & Critic Feedback [/h3] Guests and Critics are quick to notice when something isn’t quite right, whether it’s a dirty carpet or a malfunctioning air conditioner. Pay attention to their reviews and comments, and use this feedback to improve your hotel! Addressing these concerns quickly not only boosts guest satisfaction but also helps maintain your hotel’s reputation.

[/h3] Staff need somewhere to take their breaks, and certainly won’t work effectively if there isn’t a staff room zone to replenish their energy levels in, no matter their skill level! The last thing you want is for your receptionist to fall asleep at the lobby desk or a janitor to slack off and not repair the items!
