<\/strong>My name is Ryan, I’m 19 and I’m from Nice! I’ve been a baggage handler at the West End Hotel for almost 2 years now. My role is to carry luggage and show guests to their rooms. But that’s not all. It’s a multi-faceted job that also involves working at reception, guiding guests and doing concierge work. We currently have a team of 3 baggage handlers and we take turns working different shifts.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>What I enjoy most is meeting the customers, who are usually very friendly! I love the affinity you can create with them. It’s very rewarding!\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/strong>To do this job, it’s very important to have a good command of English, French, Spanish, Italian and a little Russian too. You always have to be courteous and pleasant with customers, even though some may be less friendly than others. You always have to keep a cool head.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>My favourite place in the West End Hotel is the Lobby, because this is where you build friendships with guests. It’s also the room that houses the magnificent piano… and I love the piano! The lobby is a place where people live and meet.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>I have a lot of memories and they are mainly linked to the relationship with the customers. I create bonds… and vice versa, so do the customers.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>To put their suitcases down at the hotel and get the most out of Nice! And to relax too! A must-see in Nice… Old Nice, Place Rossetti and its ice-cream parlours and, of course, Cours Saleya. These are not to be missed!<\/p>\n
