WHO YOU ARE
The Ambassador role is not a front desk receptionist hiding behind a desk, generating paperwork, and swiping credit cards. At Hotel Heron, the Ambassador owns the guest experience, ensuring that no need goes unmet and no opportunity to make a guest’s visit special is missed. The ambassadors are exquisite hosts, just as comfortable arranging the details of a surprise proposal, as they are giving a hotel tour to a curious neighbor or maneuvering a bell cart. The Ambassador knows the ins and outs of both the hotel and the surrounding community, and with a gracious demeanor and warm presence makes every guest entering the lobby feel at ease, knowing that they have selected the right place. This position turns details and tidbits about guests into recognition and actions that make a stay at Hotel Heron a personal, one-of-a-kind experience.
