So far I have enjoyed working at my internship at the
Gresham Belson Hotel and I have had the chance to learn a lot of things about
how a hotel operates. My main tasks so far have been creating charts that
correlate with the budget or rates of the hotel. I have gotten to speak with
the general manager a few times during meetings to learn about how plans of
action are made. Because the hotel tries to have the lowest rates in the area
on any given day there is a constant need to check the rates of other
surrounding hotels. I’ve learned that by looking at close competitors and
determining times of the year that are exceptionally busy they are able to
create a schedule of rates to both meet their budget and give them a competitive
advantage. I look forward to the many other things that I will be able to learn
while I’m here. My supervisor has told me that I will get to see the different
departments of the hotel and how they operate too.
