The Senior Hostess welcomes guests, manages table allocations, coordinates seating, maintains waiting lists and supports smooth restaurant operations. Requirements typically include previous experience as a hostess or guest-service professional in an upscale hotel or restaurant, strong English communication skills, a polished presentation and confidence using reservations or point-of-sale systems. Arabic or additional language skills are advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to deliver warm, attentive service, handle guest requests and complaints professionally, coordinate closely with servers and kitchen teams, and maintain Marriott and Le Royal Méridien service standards. Flexibility for shifts, weekends and public holidays is essential, together with a calm, organized and team-focused approach.
Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort & Spa is a luxury beachfront resort in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, operating under the Marriott International portfolio. Located in the Jumeirah Beach area, the resort is known for its private beach, landscaped grounds, swimming pools, restaurants, bars, spa facilities and extensive leisure services. It caters to international leisure travelers, families, business guests and events, creating a multicultural and fast-paced hospitality environment. As part of Marriott, the property generally follows structured service standards, training programs and employee benefit policies. Team members work across guest-facing and operational departments, with opportunities to develop careers in food and beverage, rooms, events, wellness and hotel management.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but it offers a highly international lifestyle across cities such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with beaches, desert landscapes, shopping, dining and year-round events. Hospitality provides many opportunities in hotels, restaurants, resorts, airlines and tourism, particularly for candidates with strong English and customer-service experience. The culture combines Emirati traditions with a large expatriate community; respectful dress and behavior are important, especially during Ramadan and at religious sites. Most workers live in shared or private accommodation, use taxis or public transport and enjoy modern amenities, though summer heat can be intense. For overseas hires, the employer normally sponsors an employment residence visa, arranges medical testing and assists with Emirates ID procedures. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transport, insurance, probation terms and flight benefits before relocating. UAE employment visas are generally tied to the sponsoring company.
