Spring Cleaning Tips For Your Hotel

4/19/2023 (Permalink)

We’re fully in the midst of spring, and with spring comes new beginnings, awakenings, and fresh starts. And what better way to incorporate a fresh start into your life than to do some much-needed spring cleaning around your hotel? As a business owner, we understand that serving your customers is a top priority. And one of the best ways to do that is to maintain your Bellevue commercial property in a way that makes it appealing to all who will enter it. They say not to judge a book by its cover, but research has shown time and time again that it only takes about seven seconds for someone’s mind to be made up about someone or something. When that’s the case, it makes sense to do some seasonal maintenance, especially if your commercial property has been affected by a spring storm. 

What Are The Best Seasonal Maintenance Ideas For Your Hotel?

• Start by checking and updating your guest bathrooms! Bathrooms are a place that can quickly get dirty and prolonged avoidance of care in that area of the hotel only does more harm than good. Replacing old shower heads and cabinetry and changing old shower curtains is a good start before you deep clean toilets, tubs, and bathroom floors. 
• If you see old drapes that have gathered dust and grime during the winter, spring is the best time to clear away the old and hang new drapes. This not only cleans up old spaces but fresh, clean drapes also allow for natural light to shine through. 
• Out of sight doesn’t always mean out of mind, especially when it has to do with lighting fixtures. Guests may not always see these fixtures, but if these items are gathering dust/cobwebs and aren’t properly situated, a time may come when this aspect of your hotel won’t be so inconspicuous. Take your aesthetic chandeliers down and have them carefully cleaned by an expert. You should do the same in your hotel’s bathrooms. 

How Can You Storm-Proof Your Bellevue Hotel This Spring?

• Create a tornado plan with your leadership team to discuss how to go about everything should business operations be interrupted by a tornado. This plan should also include any data that needs to be backed up should your business lose it. 
• Ensure that all outdoor fixtures, such as satellites and signs, are secure, as tornadoes will work from the outside in. Winds are usually an issue when spring storms are in the picture, so have your construction crew use materials with a high wind tolerance. 
• This may be a minor housekeeping tip, but it’s critical all the same: close all windows and doors to keep debris from flying inside! Do a once-over of all openings in your hotel to ensure that every window and door is closed all the way. 

We hope the tips above gave you insight and the know-how to prevent clutter from taking over your business this spring!
