Bell desk\u00a0is an extended arm of the front desk. There are many activities at the time of arrival, during the stay, and at the time of departure of the guest which cannot be carried out from the front desk but are to be carried out essentially, in order to provide services to the guest. As the name suggests it is a small desk\/counter in the lobby near the main entrance of the hotel. The bell desk should be situated in clear view of the front desk, cashier, and particularly the doorman standing outside the lobby, so that the doorman may signal for a bellboy at the arrival of a guest. Further, it is also important that the bell desk is situated near the luggage center and luggage entrance.<\/span><\/p>

\u200b<\/span>Head Hall Porter\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

The in-charge of uniformed staff is the head hall porter, and he usually wears a uniform of either tails or a frock coat with brass or silver buttons and gold or silver braid or any other uniform as decided by the management. The majority .of hall porters in larger hotels are members of an international society called \u201cSociete des clefs d\u2019 or\u201d and wear a badge of crossed keys on the lapel of their coat.<\/span><\/p>

Functions of Bell Desk<\/span><\/h2>

The senior bell captain is the in-charge of the bell desk and along with his staff performs various duties from here. The various functions performed from here are as follows.<\/span><\/p>

1. Luggage handling\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Luggage handling of the guest is done on various occasions such as arrival, during stay (change of room), and at the time of departure. At the time of arrival when the luggage of the guest is moved from car\/taxi to the lobby and further to the allotted room, the activity is called \u201cup bell activity\u201d. When the luggage of the guest is moved from room to lobby and further to the car\/taxi at the time of departure the activity is called \u201cdown bell activity\u201d. The baggage is collected from the room upon request. A left luggage register is maintained in this case and an entry is made in this book. A baggage ticket (which has two parts) is used. One part is attached to the luggage and the counterfoil is given to the guest. This portion details the hotel\u2019s liability exemption clause. When the guest comes to collect his luggage he has to produce his portion of the baggage ticket. The luggage storeroom must be secure at all times.<\/span><\/p>

2. Paging\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Apart from luggage handling the bell desk is also responsible for paging a guest. The paging is a system of locating the guest in the hotel. Many times the in-house guest expects a phone call or a visitor but decides not to wait in the room, and might decide to go to public areas such as a bar, restaurant. swimming pool, lobby or lounge, etc. of the hotel or may go out of the hotel. In such cases, the hotel requests the guest to tell about his whereabouts through a location form. This proforma may be kept in the stationary folds in the room as well as at the information section of the counter. Usually, it is mm in by the guest but many times it may be filled in by the hotel staff on the instructions of the guest The completed location form is kept in the key and mail racks. This information is sent to the telephone department also (the guest may directly inform or the front desk may do so). The purpose of the form is to earmark the area of paging and save time. In the case of a computer system, the information is recorded on the computer instead of the location forms.<\/span><\/p>

3. Mail and Message Handling<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The bell desk\u2019s function is also to handle and distribute mail and message received by the front desk in the absence of the guests to their respective rooms. Also distribution or newspaper and magazines etc. to various rooms and the areas of the hotel and keeping a record of the same is done by the bell desk.<\/span><\/p>

4. Delivery of Newspapers<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

As per the hotel policy, all hotel guests receive a copy of a local newspaper each morning. The bellboys in the night shift are responsible for delivering the newspapers to all occupied rooms.<\/span>
The bell captain obtains the room verification report (providing information on all rooms presently occupied). The bellboy then marks the room numbers for each newspaper. The bellboy also inserts the daily newsletters in each paper provided by the public relations office the previous evening. The bellboy then distributes the newspapers. The record of numbers of newspapers received on a daily basis is maintained by the night shift bell captain.<\/span><\/p>

5. Collection of Room Keys at Departure<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Another very important function of the bell desk is the collection of room keys from a checkout guest and depositing the same at the information desk.<\/span><\/p>

6. Miscellaneous Jobs<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Miscellaneous jobs such as postage stamps handling, taking care of outgoing mail of the guest, carrying out outside errands for the guest and hotel such as buying of cinema tickets, moving of files and documents, etc. for the guest as well as going to banks, post office and FRRO police station for delivering of \u2018C forms\u2019 etc., confirming of railways\/bus reservation, etc. are done by the bell desk. Bellboy shall do the outside jobs only on the instructions of hell captain. A service call slip will be prepared. Also, an entry in the logbook will be made and an entry in the bell captain\u2019s control sheet, which is meant to control the movement of bellboys will be made. Finally when the bellboy will return an entry will be made in the service call slip and bell captain\u2019s control sheet and will be signed by bell captain. In most hotels these days the bell desk is also responsible for car parking areas and control of revenue generated from the car parking area. At times when there is a room discrepancy, the bell desk staff helps the lobby manager in checking and sorting out of the status of the hotel.<\/span><\/p>

7. Wake Call\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

In some hotels, the wake-up call to groups and crews is coordinated by the bell desk. In such cases, it is the responsibility of the bell captain on duty in the morning shift to prepare the wake call sheets of all the groups and crews in-house.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The procedure for receiving luggage is as such: Before accepting the luggage, it is checked whether the guest has settled his bill or not.<\/span><\/p>

Skippers are those persons who check out of the hotel without settling their bills. The scanty baggage guests also normally go out with their light baggage and the hotel never knows that if this guest is going out with an intention to come back or not.

        Message Handling Procedure <\/strong><\/span><\/p>

        1. Receiving messages for in house guests in their absence, recording them, and communicating them to the guest as soon as possible is an important function of the front desk staff. The efficiency and professionalism of the hotel and the attitude of staff are reflected by the way this function is carried out by the staff.<\/span><\/li>
        2. The need for receiving a message for in house guests is when the guest is not in the room. Usually, when the guest goes out of his room, he would leave his room key at the counter where the information clerk would put in the appropriate room number in pigeon holes. Sometimes the guest may leave his whereabouts at the reception counter through a yellow card also called locator or location form whereabouts in the card.<\/span><\/li>
        3. In case a phone call comes or a visitor comes to the hotel to see the guest, the receptionist will first confirm through the key and mail rack whether the guest is in the room or not. He\/she will look for any location form left by the guest also. Suppose a visitor comes and the in -house guest has left a location form indicating that he will be in the bar, dining hall, etc, then the paging in that particular area will be done for him either by public address system or through traditional page board system.<\/span><\/li>
        4. In case the guest has not left any whereabouts but has left the key at the counter, the visitor will be asked to leave a message for the in[1]house guest. A special performa called the message slip is prepared and is filled in by the visitor. Usually, hotels prepare the slip in triplicate on behalf of the visitor. The top one or the original is kept in key and mail rack in an envelope and is delivered to the guest when he\/she comes to collect the room key.<\/span><\/li>
        5. The first copy of the message is slipped in the room and the second copy remains in the message book as a reference copy.<\/span><\/li>
        6. In case the guest has neither left any location form nor has given the key of the room to the reception counter, the same system is followed for recording but in addition, either an \u201cattention card \u201cor \u201cmail and message advise slip \u201cis put on the knob of the room or message light is activated in those hotels which use electronic systems. The message details may also be fed into the computer and the guest may view it on the screen of the tv in his room.<\/span><\/li>
        7. A similar system is followed in case of a telephone message. The important point to be noted here is that whenever the receptionist receives information about guest\u2019s whereabouts (through location form) he \/she must immediately pass on the same information to the telephone department so that call may be diverted to the message centre without delay.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

          Mail Handling <\/strong><\/span><\/p>

          Mail handling is a very important activity of the front desk and the way mail is handled shows the efficiency and attitude of the hotel staff. Any delay and carelessness shown by the staff may result in great dissatisfaction. The term \u201cmail handling\u201d covers up both incoming and outgoing mail. Incoming mail As per the policy of the hotel, the incoming mail may be received at the bell desk or by the information department. The first step involved in the mail is sorted, arranged alphabetically and put separately ie,<\/span><\/p>

          1. Mail for the guest<\/span><\/li>
          2. Mail for the hotel Next, the mail is date and time-stamped. The incoming guest mail It is sorted into three categories:<\/span><\/li>
          3. Mail for the inhouse guest<\/span><\/li>

            • In case the key of the room of the in-house guest is in keys mail rack, the in-house guest mail is put in key and mail rack and is delivered to him along with room key when he comes to the counter. In case the guest is in the room, he is intimidated about the mail and if he\/she so desires the bellboy takes the mail to the room.<\/span><\/li>
            • Sometimes the guest may go out of his room without leaving the key on the counter. In such cases, a Mail Advice Slip is put on the key knob of the door so that if the guest goes to the room directly, he\/she would know about the mail which the hotel has received in his \/ her absence.<\/span><\/li>
            • These days hotels use message light on the telephone or on the door and computers are used for this purpose in some hotels. Checked out guest The mail of the checked-out guest is checked out with the forwarding instructions and mail is forwarded according to the instructions left out by the check-out guest and appropriate entries are made on the mail forwarding address slip. Awaited arrivals.<\/span><\/li>

            • On the night before the arrival date, the expected arrival mail along with the reservation record is sent to the front desk. When the guest arrives, the mail is handed over to him at the time of registration. The awaited mail is retained for a period of one month only. After the expiry of the date, it is sent back to the sender.<\/span><\/li>
            • At times the hotel may also receive registered, recorded mail such as letters, packages, parcels, etc for the guest. Since there is a record maintained by the hotel of all such staff mails at times of receiving, it is important that it should be delivered urgently to the guest and acknowledgment taken.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>
