Pros

Nice public areas . Food On duty but that’s where it stops

Cons

Weird company to work in the way it does things & operates ! Doesn’t pay overtime not even on bank holidays You get a “bonus” if it hits all the targets , that’s a big IF One thinks of German efficiency in todays modern economy but not with this one sadly ! A lot of things still done on paper & then put computer , why ? Do any other hotels in the U.K. still use registration cards ? Motel one does , bizarre Most beds are continental twins , this is the U.K. No hot food at breakfast No enough staff on duty Too much management , that old saying too many chiefs etc My hotel was clicky , staff relationships etc It’s like the old saying all fur coat & no knickers Would not recommend this company . While the hotel is a good design doesn’t make it a good employer

Dear former colleague, Thank you for your review and the time you've invested in writing it. I'm sorry to hear we didn't leave a good impression with you. At Motel One overtime is noted in the duty roster and can be reduced later by taking days off. In addition, Motel One pays night and holiday bonuses, depending on the collective agreement. Due to the current situation and the prevailing shortage of skilled workers in the hotel industry, it can unfortunately happen that departments are temporarily understaffed. This is of course not our intention. I wish you all the best. Kind regards, Fabian Frey

Pros

Flexible time, depending on who you work with you will have a friendly atmosphere; you don’t need to speak french or dutch, they are ok with English

Cons

Management can be bad and ignore what its employees need; late shift; hectic shifts specially when colleagues are sick and they can’t find replacement on time
