Marriott Executive Apartments Manama and Residence Inn by Marriott Manama Juffair recently hosted the global celebration of Housekeepers Appreciation Week 2014, marking the completion of a seven-day commemoration of recognising and appreciating housekeepers in the hospitality industry.

More than 4,000 Marriott properties around the world used the week as another opportunity to honour its housekeeping team and thank associates for the critical role they play in making the business successful.

In Bahrain, the event was filled with various fun activities, such as an opening ceremony breakfast, gifts, a ladies scarf workshop, a bed-making challenge, public exhibition and closing ceremony on the property’s rooftop.

The public exhibition highlighting both Marriott Executive Apartments and Residence Inn by Marriott included a ‘how to clean a guest room’ video, so in-house guests could come visit and leave comments.

Michel Sursock, general manager of Marriott Executive Apartments Manama, said that housekeeping department was ‘the backbone’ and vital organ in the hospitality industry, carrying out essential roles in achieving and maintaining guest satisfaction.

“Understanding this crucial function, we constantly recognise our housekeeping professionals with the highest appreciation. This week was dedicated to our housekeeping, cleaning and laundry associates - thanks to them for their great job to ensure our guests and residents experience a wonderful stay.”
