Vacatures housekeeping Leiden

Job Description

About Delola

Delola is a modern capsule hotel located in The Hague. We are not a traditional hotel and we are not a hostel. Our guests stay in comfortable sleeping pods designed to offer privacy, comfort, and convenience.

Each pod contains a bed, fresh linen, duvet, pillow, reading lamp, USB charging port, clothes hook, storage net, and privacy curtain.

We are proud of our international team and believe in honesty and transparency from the beginning.

This position starts with a 3-month trial period on a 0-hour contract. During this period, we work together to determine whether Delola is the right fit for you and whether you can become a long-term member of our team.

If the collaboration is successful, we intend to offer a 1-year contract with a minimum of 24 hours per week. However, we believe in being honest from the start. This is why we are choosing to be transparent about this.

• Reliable and punctual

• Respectful towards guests and colleagues

• Able to work independently

• A strong team player

Our current team speaks English, Dutch, Polish, Lithuanian, French, Haitian Creole, and Norwegian.

Teamwork Is Essential

At Delola, nobody is above helping when needed. During busy periods, everyone works together to ensure guests receive the best experience possible. Even management assists with housekeeping when operationally necessary.

We are looking for team members who share this collaborative mindset.
