The first luxury housekeeping courses of their kind
Master luxury housekeeping and specialist interior skills with the top online training courses designed by industry experts
You might be thinking you don’t need to learn how to clean or do laundry
Maybe you think you already know how to do both or you’re expecting to learn on the job. Unfortunately, that’s what most think, but the reality is quite different. From day one your job will include long hours and some pretty unglamorous situations. The job is fast paced, leaving little time to learn and zero room for costly errors.
Expectations within the luxury industry are also incredibly high. This is an industry where cleaning and laundry are a refined and particular skill, and something you will be doing 85% of your time, so you must know what you’re doing and do it right.
