1 Use a reliable booking system

A booking system is the backbone of your room management and housekeeping operations. It allows you to track reservations, availability, rates, and occupancy. It also helps you communicate with guests, staff, and third-party channels. A reliable booking system should be easy to use, secure, and integrated with other tools and platforms. It should also provide real-time data and reports to help you monitor and analyze your performance and make informed decisions.

2 Assign rooms strategically

Assigning rooms to guests is not a random process. It requires careful planning and consideration of various factors, such as guest preferences, room types, special requests, loyalty programs, and length of stay. You should also take into account the location, layout, and condition of your rooms, as well as the availability of amenities and services. By assigning rooms strategically, you can maximize your occupancy, revenue, and guest satisfaction. You can also avoid overbooking, underbooking, and room changes.

You cannot predict room changes nor will pre blocking long help prevent issues of room moves arising. Too many variables to predict guests that get in and tell you they need to be adjacent to another guest or not liking the room location or type of room. This is missing additional steps involving what to do if you are overbooked. You can preblock those with notes as needed but leaving some unblocked is better so early/late arrivals are not stuck in a room that might be available later. Furthermore, if you are overbooked there are a number of maneuvers to do prior to setting up the house. If you pre block 1 nighters when overbooked you may end up walking a longer stay guest.

3 Schedule housekeeping efficiently

Housekeeping is one of the most important and labor-intensive aspects of your operations. It ensures that your rooms are clean, comfortable, and ready for your guests. However, it can also be challenging to schedule and coordinate, especially when dealing with different shifts, workloads, and priorities. To schedule housekeeping efficiently, you should use a system that allows you to assign tasks, track progress, and update status. You should also consider the frequency, duration, and quality of your housekeeping services, as well as the availability, skills, and feedback of your housekeeping staff.

4 Communicate clearly and effectively

Communication is key to managing room assignments and housekeeping schedules. You need to communicate clearly and effectively with your guests, staff, and partners. You need to inform your guests about your policies, procedures, and expectations, as well as their room details, check-in and check-out times, and housekeeping options. You need to communicate with your staff about their roles, responsibilities, and schedules, as well as any changes, issues, or feedback. You need to communicate with your partners, such as online travel agencies, about your inventory, rates, and availability.

5 Review and adjust regularly

Managing room assignments and housekeeping schedules is not a one-time or static process. It is a dynamic and ongoing process that requires constant review and adjustment. You should regularly evaluate your performance, identify your strengths and weaknesses, and look for opportunities to improve. You should also monitor the market trends, customer demands, and competitive landscape, and adapt accordingly. By reviewing and adjusting your room management and housekeeping processes, you can ensure that you are meeting your goals and exceeding your guests' expectations.
