Protea Hotel Reviews

 

Capable of working under pressure

It's a usual thing that I get to work freshly minded to prepare our menu for the day, am an open person with good character to the coworkers. I have learnt that a person is treated as I want to be treated. I enjoy being at the kitchen because kitchen feels like a home to me, with all the elders and age mates around the most challenging aspects of the workplace are people with bad attitude and behavior around coworkers and guests.

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Long working hours

Excellent learning

my relationship with coworkers is professional; and i enjoy doing my work and making sure its done in time. the most challenging thing is dealing with guests who do not understand my language or English this is the most difficult thing as we cannot communicate. during the day the hotel gets busy that there are more guest coming in it makes my job very hard. i have learnt that more work requires more energy and good strategy to finish the work.

Pros: great opportunity to get the job
Cons: medium working hours

Excellent experienced gained from working here.

During my two years of working for Protea Hotels I have learned so much about the hospitality industry that I never even thought I would learn. Working with the front desk team helped me to step out of my comfort zone and learn guest service delivery at its best.

Pros: Good working environment
Cons: Working hours was bad as well as the salary

I’m one individual that loves exceeding Guest or Clients expectations

Our hotel is one very busy hotel, one has to adapt with the work load and pressure I work with amazing people, staff is verry friendly at all times yes at times thing around the hotel it not always happy go lucky but one thing I’ve learned is that a person should always see a way out to solve a problem and lean from what has happened. I must I’ve learned so much around the hotel as a whole from all departments. I really enjoy working in a enthusiastic eniromemt where I will always learn new things, interacting with Guest it Clients I what I love at most.

Pros: You become more independent due to the work load and pressure and able to handle different situation one encounters
Cons: Working hours are reasonable and does accommodate oneself
