What Kind Of Beds Should Be Made in A Five-star Hotel?

The guest room is not only the foundation of the hotel but also one of the most important pillars of the hotel’s profitability. The beauty and comfort of the bed affect the guest’s impression of the guest room and even the hotel’s impression. Although Chinese-style bedmaking seems simple, it is difficult to master it skillfully and make it according to the specifications within the specified time. Mastering the skills of Chinese-style bedmaking can effectively enable employees to complete the operation within the specified time and improve efficiency.

 

As the exclusive sponsor of the “Yalan Cup”, the top event in the hotel linen industry in Western China, Yalan has a standardized theoretical system for guest room linen skills and professional service knowledge. The following provides you with the guest room linen bed-making method in a five-star hotel. I hope this helps your hotel.

 

Prelude preparation:

 

Make the bed and change the number of sheets and pillow bags according to the bed-making standards. First, fold the bedspread and blanket and place them on a chair. Do not place them on the ground. Then remove the sheets. Be careful when removing the sheets. If there are several sheets, do not put them on at the same time. Take them down one by one. At the same time, pay attention to whether there are guest items on the sheets, such as pajamas, wallets, underwear, etc. If there are pajamas, they should be folded and placed on the prepared bed. Remove the pillows. When removing the bag, move gently and check whether there are any guest belongings under the pillow. If it is valuable, notify the office clerk by phone and register it on the work report form. Put the removed bed sheet and pillow bag immediately into the cloth bag of the work vehicle. Inside, bring in clean sheets and pillowcases. Check the sheets and pillowcases to make sure they are clean, stain-free, hair-free, and damaged.

 

 

1. Change dirty sheets.

 

2. Take out the bed towels (folded), pillowcases, quilts, and sheets, check for stains, damage (if there are special stains, knot the towels), and entrained guest supplies, put the dirty towels into the cloth bag of the work vehicle, and take them back clean Towels are strictly prohibited on the floor. Clean napkins according to a standard, checking for stains and tears.

 

 

The process and steps of making the bed:

1. Open the sheets:

Pull out the mattress about 60 cm with both hands, pay attention to turning the mattress over, and label it. (Replace it head to tail once a week, and flip it up and down once a month) to make the mattress evenly stressed, and arrange the protective pad (face up, with four buckle covers tightly covering the four corners of the mattress).

 

 

2. Spreading the sheets:

Put the folded sheet face up and place it at the end of the bed. Use your thumb, index finger, and middle finger to tighten the sheet and open it. Use the buoyancy of the air to keep the center line of the sheet consistent with the center line of the mattress. The four sides hang down to the same length; when wrapping the corners, pay attention to the same direction; the bed corners are required to be full; the corners are straight; and the bed's surface is flat and not loose.

 

 

3. Quilt cover:

Place the folded quilt cover at the end of the bed, quickly open the mouth of the quilt cover with both hands, put the four corners of the quilt core into the quilt cover, grab the two corners, and shake it hard so that the quilt core is fully unfolded, the four corners of the quilt cover are full, the bed surface is smooth and beautiful, and the quilt corners Droop naturally, the edges of the quilt hang down evenly, and the center line of the quilt cover overlaps the center line of the bedsheets. Fold the bedside part of the quilt about 40 cm. Make the bed surface smooth, crisp, and beautiful.

 

 

4. Pillowcase:

Open the pillowcase and put the pillow inside, making sure the corners match up. The seal is neat, and the pillow core does not leak. Place two pillows side by side against the headboard of the bed, with the front pillow leaning against the back pillow at a 45-degree angle to the headboard.

 

 

5. Push the bed:

Push the bed forward to fit the headboard.

 

 

6. Cushions and pillows:

According to the size of the bed, I equipped it with two appropriate cushion cores and one pillow core. Put the cushion core and pillow core into the cushion cover and pillowcase to make the cushion and pillow look as full as possible; place the cushion in the middle of a single pillow or in the middle of two pillows; and place the pillow in the middle of the entire bed.

 

 

7. Hotel bed runner:

Place the bedside towel 10 cm away from the end of the bed. The length of the bedside towel should be close to the width of the quilt.

 

 

8. Check the overall effect

Step 1: Lift: Bend over and squat down, raising the mattress slightly with both hands.

Step 2: Pull: Slowly pull the mattress approximately 30cm away from the headboard.

Step 3: Organize: Arrange the protective pad and pay attention to cleaning the hair on the protective pad.

Step 4: Make the bed, center the fold line, and make sure both sides are even. Make sure that the fitted sheet and quilt cover are free of stains and damage. The center line matches the center line of the bed. We evenly covered the quilt on the quilt cover. We position the four corners accurately, and the quilt surface is flat; the left and right sides are The foot of the bed hangs down naturally and is laid flat and neat, and we angled the quilt without dragging the floor.

 

 

Step 5: Push: Bend over and slowly push the mattress under the headboard.

Step 6: Cover: Put the pillowcase on, fluff the pillow core, and lay it flat on the bed. Hold the first two ends of the pillow core and stuff them into the pillowcase. Grab the mouth of the bag with both hands and make the pillow core completely enter the pillowcase.

Step 7: Pat—tuck all the pillow cores into both sides of the pillow bag, arrange the mouth of the bag, and pat it loose to make it smooth and crisp.

Step 8: Set: Place the two pillows in the middle of the headboard of the bed, with the three lines aligned; the openings face each other, and the four corners are full.

Step 9: Check: Comprehensive arrangement The bed's surface is crisp and beautiful.

 

 

Precautions:

1. The operation must be fast, skillful, and accurate.

2. The wrapping angle should be 90 degrees on the outside and 45 degrees on the inside.

3. When making the bed, shake the linen to prevent linen and leftover items from being mixed in.

4. The quilt cover must have full corners and the tail opening should be tied with a belt. The pillowcase must have full corners and a firm pillow shape.
