Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark Hotel Gives Housekeeping Carts the Boot
Four-Star Hotel in Charlotte, NC Introduces the Latest in Housekeeping Services
(firmenpresse) - CHARLOTTE, NC -- (Marketwire) -- 02/14/12 -- Guests at the Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark Hotel will never see a housekeeping cart in the guest room hallways again. According to General Manager Kris Horacek, the cartless housekeeping program has been so successful that she doesn't see them ever making a comeback.
"We began to adopt a cartless program a few years back when I took over management of the hotel," notes Ms. Horacek, General Manager of the , "and it has had a number of benefits. Not only does it leave the hallways free of the carts overflowing with dirty linens and trash, but it also enables hotel guests to more easily navigate the hallways with their bags, they don't visibly witness the service of their rooms so it all appears to happen by magic, and perhaps most importantly from a bottom line standpoint, it dramatically improves productivity as the housekeeper/room stylist doesn't need to load and unload carts with linen and product every day."
The housekeeping service at the Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark Hotel operates in a few easy steps:
1. A houseperson goes into each room and collects the linen, strips the bed if need be, and collects the trash. Keycards are coded with red or green to note which rooms need the beds to be stripped.
2. The housekeeper/stylist then goes into each room, taking with them a vacuum as well as a specially designed cart on wheels (pictured above) which holds cleaning products as well as hidden drawers for the luxury hotel's Aveda products and other items which he/she will need to make up the room. There is also a linen closet on each floor where the housekeeper can access clean sheets, towels, etc.
3. The room is then inspected and the toilet tissue is embossed with the signature "R" which signals that the room is now customer ready.
And the Renaissance Charlotte SouthPark, one of the premier is not the only property in the Marriott Hotels & Resorts group which has adopted this program. A number of properties across the brand are also using cartless housekeeping including the Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott in New Jersey.
