Job Description

You'll turn rooms around at a game lodge in Pinetown so every guest walks into a room that feels new. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

Location: Pinetown, KwaZulu-Natal. Applicants who already live in the area get looked at first. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

What you'll actually do

  • Load, wash, dry and press linen in the hotel laundry
  • Strip and make beds to the hotel's standard, hospital corners included
  • Log lost property with the guest's room number and date
  • Report maintenance faults like dripping taps or broken lights
  • Clean bathrooms, replace towels and restock guest toiletries

What you need

  • Physically able to push trolleys and turn mattresses
  • Quick and thorough, with a target of about 14 to 16 rooms a shift
  • Honest, since you work in guests' rooms alone
  • Well groomed

Nice if you have

  • Previous hotel or guesthouse housekeeping experience
  • A hospitality short course or NQF Level 2 accommodation services certificate
  • Speaking a foreign language for tourist guests

On offer

  • Meals on duty from the staff kitchen
  • Share of the service charge or guest tips
  • Uniform supplied and laundered

Applying, step by step

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): any hospitality training certificates, ID copy with a recent certification stamp plus CV listing hotels or guesthouses with dates.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 10 working days, usually by phone.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

  • Mention seasonal availability for December and Easter. Coastal and lodge properties hire heavily before those peaks.
  • If you worked in a star-graded hotel, say which grading. It tells them the standard you already know.
