The Hostess welcomes guests, manages restaurant reservations and seating, answers enquiries, and helps create a smooth dining experience. Applicants should have strong communication and customer-service skills, a polished and friendly manner, good organisation, and the ability to remain calm during busy service periods. Previous experience in a restaurant, hotel, or guest-facing role is preferred. Candidates should be professionally presented, attentive to detail, comfortable using reservation systems, and able to work flexible shifts, including evenings, weekends, and public holidays. English communication is generally required; additional languages and knowledge of luxury hospitality are advantageous.
The Abu Dhabi EDITION is a luxury lifestyle hotel located in the Al Bateen Marina area of Abu Dhabi. It is part of EDITION Hotels, Marriott International’s boutique luxury brand, which combines the service standards of a global hotel company with individual design, local character, and a strong food, beverage, and nightlife focus. The property includes stylish guest rooms and suites, restaurants, bars, event spaces, wellness facilities, and marina access. The hotel attracts leisure travellers, business guests, and residents seeking distinctive dining and entertainment. Employees are expected to deliver personalised, discreet, and highly polished service while working collaboratively in a multicultural environment. Benefits and employment terms vary by position and may include accommodation, meals, transport, insurance, and annual leave.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but Abu Dhabi is an excellent base for hospitality careers, with opportunities in hotels, restaurants, events, tourism, aviation, and retail. The culture is multicultural and welcoming, while Islamic traditions influence dress, public behaviour, and holiday periods. Abu Dhabi offers a modern, safe lifestyle, beaches, shopping, desert activities, and reliable public transport, although summer temperatures are extremely high and living costs can be significant. Most overseas employees require an employer-sponsored residence visa and work permit; the employer normally arranges medical checks, Emirates ID processing, and related paperwork. Confirm whether accommodation, transport, insurance, flights, and gratuity are included before accepting an offer. Bring attested qualifications where requested, budget for initial expenses, and check contract terms carefully. Respect local laws, customs, and workplace policies during relocation.
