Can you imagine waking up every day knowing that you work in a luxurious, multicultural environment where excellence is the standard and every detail counts? The five-star hotels are not just places to sleep: they are real experiences. And behind every perfect experience is a highly qualified, passionate and well-trained team.

If you dream of a career in this type of establishment, read on: here's what we explain how to get started, what skills you need and what training will open doors to the premium hospitality industry.

Why work in five-star hotels?

Working in the hospitality industry is not only about professionalism, it is also about personal development, travel, international opportunities and a valuable network of contacts. Here are some reasons to go down this path:

• Multicultural environments

• Possibilities for rapid promotion

• Job rotation and international mobility

• Continuous training within the chains

• Unique experiences and VIP customer treatment

What training do you need?

Although some people start at the bottom and work their way up, the reality is that luxury hotels are looking for profiles with specialised training and global vision.. For this reason, Master's degrees in Hotel Management are increasingly in demand. Of course, if you have studied a degree in Tourism or if you have a diploma in Tourism and want to do an adaptation course, this will always be a plus.

A official master's degree in Hotel Management allows you to:

• Understand the complete operations of a hotel: reception, catering, housekeeping, revenue, events...

• Learning to lead multicultural teams

• Develop tourism marketing and customer experience strategies.

• Access to internships or employment in 4 and 5-star hotels

• Open doors for you nationally and internationally

Skills that 5-star hotels are looking for 

In addition to training, these skills make a difference:

• Detail and customer orientation

• Languages (English is compulsory, but French, German, Arabic, Russian, etc. would also be an asset).

• Conflict resolution with grace

• Time management and multitasking

• Leadership and teamwork

And above all: passion for hospitality. Because working in a five-star hotel means taking care of every aspect so that guests have an unforgettable experience.

Where can you work?

Graduates of master's degrees in hotel management can access positions such as:

• Front Office Manager

• Guest Experience Manager

• Event or banquet manager

• Revenue Manager

• Hotel Manager

• Concierge in luxury hotels

• Consultant in tourism or hotel expansion

In addition, many international hotel chains (Marriott, Meliá, Accor, Hyatt, Four Seasons...) are also active. recruit directly from specialised university centres such as The Open Faculty, which has been training leaders in the sector for more than half a century.
