Jai adoré travailler au Best Western premier. Les gens sont très généreux et formelle.
Boss is patient and very friendly to all, tries to work with everyones time and needs, respectful, caring, and fun. Usually lots to do if you like to keep busy, there’s always stuff to do and find. Customers are appreciative if you go above and beyond and it shows. Most people are polite and friendly, especially with good service. Every job will have there battles on what you’ll need to work on more, but other than that it’s been a great experience so far! And very appreciative for everyone’s time and patients.
Points positifs
Meet new people from all around, and get to learn new things.
Points négatifs
Hour’s vary
I worked here for a year and it was nothing but being overworked, treated poorly by management and any little thing you did wrong almost counted as a write up. Standards are unbelievable and the staff is not nice to be around. Management picks favourites and the hotel owners are not considerate at all. They will fire you over simple things or things that was their fault but then blamed on you. I do not recommend working here. They would also advertise the job as a higher wage to new employees and on job boards while keeping their current employees at a lower previous wage and then would not speak about it until an employee brought it up. They would then hand out raises and say “it’s not because someone spoke up”. I was once told not to clean a room because of a case of lice in a room, and that it needed to be professionally cleaned, but then 4 hours into my shift I was told it was fine to clean. Managers constantly tell you how bad your work is every morning before your shift and belittle you. The hours are difficult to get around because you never know when you’ll really be finished your shift. Your quota could be 5:30pm and you may leave by 7pm if your supervisor finds more things for you to do. Please save your breath with this job and move on.

Working late when people leave without notice ie, from 8am to 10pm. Higher wage but you get part time hours even though it’s advertised as full time, and you work 5 days a week.
Great place to start and move up. Lots of training opportunities. Management willing to teach and develop those who want to learn the hospitality or restaurant business. Great team, fair managers, family environment. Benefits & perks. Great customers.
Points positifs
Discounts on rooms & food. Staff swimming & fitness room. Positive environment
Points négatifs
Dealing with public can be stressful at times especially during pandemic
Wonderful work environment with a great team of people.Can be a very busy, fast paced during big check-in/check-out days or busy banquet days (or both)! Makes your days go by quickly. Can also be slow, so must be able to adapt to each day!Working at the hotel offers great opportunity to meet new people, of all different walks of life. It is a great place to get into the Hospitality industry to learn the ways.
Points positifs
Great onsite restaurant if you have forgotten your lunch! Offers employee discounts!

Pro: Great onsite restaurant for when you forget your lunch!
Started working with Best western as housekeeper 2015 and itès been hard work ....And now, looking forward to stepping into my new position as inspector this summer .
Points positifs
flexible shifts, great co workers, free cleaning rags to take home
Points négatifs
hard labor
Working in a environment that is union, makes me feel that I am not sure what to do, because the interference with my colleagues is hard to think the same way, everyone has an attitude towards union. Loved working for Best Western Kings Inn, specially the family owners.
Points positifs

Points négatifs
Commute
I’ve worked for many brands and best western itself is a good brand but as a franchise it opens the door for a lot of owners/management groups that can be cruel or unfair. You just gotta find a BW with a good managing group and pay.
Points négatifs
Salary
Great place to work, but not great pay, as expected for the industry itself. The scenery is wonderful, that staff are exceptional, and the hours are seasonal as to be expected.
Points positifs
Great culture

everything
Worked here twice (Best Western Gatineau)Once as a housekeeper and years later as a housekeeping manager. I would not return to work here or refer anyone to work here. It is bed bug infested and not well maintained at all! Worst place I ever worked.
Points positifs
None
Points négatifs
Long hours, weekends. Not having staff or supplies to do the work.
the job was fine, used to the fast paced, hectic atmosphere at busy time. did not enjoy being called off bc of seniority, was not fair , i depended on a pay check, 15 20 hrs a week not ok. other than the cattiness of a few other co workers and their endless drama, the job was good. b w went thru way too many managers, you never knew who you were going to be answering to. other than that, made a couple of friends in co workers, enjoyed the customers, and being able to swim at pool when i wanted.
Points positifs
sometimes free meals after buffet
Points négatifs
too much slow time not enough hours
Well I started as a cook and I ended up chef cook work there for about 8 years but I worked at the Carlton place one too it was a good experience I learned a lot you learn every day no
I loved working here due to covid I lost myJob otherwise I’d still be there. Friendly staff great place to work. No complaints good training great management
The work is very physically demanding and you are often required to do way more than is possible for your shift; the pay is insulting for the amount of work you do. Very little training and the hotel manager was really awful; a very arrogant man who tried to intimidate people. The way employees were treated by management was unacceptable at times.I was fired after I had a panic attack and had to leave early; they claimed it was that my quality of work wasn't good enough, but I had never heard that until the incident with having to leave early for a legitimate mental health crisis.
Points positifs
Get out early if you start early
Points négatifs
Everything else
This family run hotel is a great spot to work. The management team is amazing, trustworthy and fair. During the busy season there is a good vibe and tons of people to meet. Also, if your past job experiences allow, you can help out in different departments of the hotel.
Points positifs
A pool!
They don’t follow any rules for your safety and will get involved in things they shouldn’t. They simply don’t care about anyone but themselves and I highly recommend if you get the job that you watch your back
Points positifs
None
Points négatifs
Management lies, dirty work place, small work space for what they’re asking from you
I have learned the role of Front Office Manager and have enjoyed it for the past 10 years. The GM of this Best Western has been my mentor for the past 10 years as well as the Guest Services Manager.
Points positifs
Great people to work with.
Points négatifs
Sometimes have to deal with rude people that come to stay.
Promised raises many times and never got it. Managers watched the cameras 24/7 if you sat for a few moments for a break or talked to someone youd get in trouble. Day shift put against night shift. Boss had no back bone either and didnt discipline people who are late everyday and goes out for smoke breaks every hour on the hour.
Points positifs
None other than leaving
Points négatifs
Everything
I have always felt cared and respected at the Best Western. At times communication is poor. Been there 10 years and I am not going anywhere. Fun, friendly. Coworkers like family.
Points positifs
Free food
Points négatifs
Poor communication at times
