QUALITY AND SAFETY IN HOTELS, MOTELS, AND RESORTS
One of the primary challenges tourists face when planning a trip is choosing suitable accommodations. Hotels are the most common option, and ISO 22483:2020 provides a universal and achievable standard for quality service in hotels. This standard was developed with various types of hotels worldwide in mind, taking into account different categorization systems, business models, sizes, service offerings, and current global trends and guest expectations.
ISO 22483 serves as a tool to ensure a positive visitor experience, enhance direct and indirect guest loyalty, and establish a robust framework for providing the minimum level of service expected by international travelers.
Overview of Main Requirements of the ISO 22483 Standard:
1. Staff Requirements: Covering general requirements, organizational structure, defined responsibilities, training programs, guest services, staff facilities, and management of subcontracted services and concessionaires.
2. Service Requirements: Addressing information and communication, front desk services, reservation and check-in/check-out services, luggage handling, VIP services, accommodation services, room maintenance, food and beverage services, buffet standards, culinary offerings, hotel kitchen facilities, and ancillary services such as pools, saunas, spas, events, and entertainment options.
3. Safety and Security: Focused on risk and accident prevention, food safety, personal hygiene, safe food product reception and storage, waste treatment, health safety, asset security, building safety, fire protection, and emergency management protocols.
4. Maintenance Requirements: Covering the upkeep of buildings, outdoor areas, and equipment to ensure a well-maintained and safe environment for guests.
5. Cleanliness Requirements: Emphasizing a thorough cleaning plan for common areas, guest rooms (both occupied and post-check-out), deep cleaning programs, and linen and laundry services.
6. Supply Management and Guest Satisfaction: Establishing effective supply management, feedback collection, and guest satisfaction assessment to continuously improve the quality of service.
