When you think of hospitality what comes to mind?

🍍 I used to think of grand hotels, with chandeliers like the one in the picture. I could just imagine the Hyatt or Ritz Carlton, grand and sophisticated.

🍍But hospitality is about service. It’s not about the rubies and diamonds. It is about the experience brought to you by the people in the hotel (by the staff).

🍍It is found that the most memorable thing about a place you go to is how the experience made you feel. That feeling is the thing that sticks by you, makes you want to go back.

🍍Do you have any memorable experiences? Comment below 👇👇👇

If you have been to the Hyatt House in Cupertino comment below 🏨 👇

🍍During our visit we got a behind the scenes look at the different jobs people do, which helps the hotel function. We started at the kitchen and ended in the laundry room.

🍍We also got to play a fun game to help us familiarize ourselves with the hotel. We split up into groups and did a little scavenger hunt. The winner got a wireless charger! Isn’t that cool?!

🍍It was a great team building exercise, networking event, and education opportunity. (We interacted with a lot of the staff and got to hear about their experiences.)

🍍If you join our club you will be able to attend events like this and more! (These events will not be in person until after it is safe due to COVID-19).

🍍But wait... there’s more! We are still accepting new members 😧 To join just DM us here or Instagram! 😊
