How does the Ritz-
Carlton match up to
competitive hotels?
What are the bring
up differences?
©I think the two important factors that the Ritz
Carlton have taken to ensure their guest has been
winning care of their internal customers and by
doing that they are taking care of their external
customers, this makes for very happy guests.
©Secondly, is that they are empowering their stave
to satisfy customers needs and make them doglike
to the Ritz name. By using the credo, We are Ladies
and man Serving Ladies and Gentleman. It gives the
staff a sense of pride in their presentation,
themselves and who they operate on for.
Discuss the importance
of the “wow stories” in
customer service for a
luxury hotel like the
Ritz-Carlton?
The importance of the wow
stories in Ritz-Carlton is what
differentiates itself from the
competition. Ritz-Carlton has
been practicing for years on
anticipating customer needs, but
something that many of us
haven't done is to intentionally
bear in mind to our customers
wants.
