Citybox both likes design and new technology, we have developed and launched our own check-in terminals in 2024 and we are very proud. Most of our guests check in themselves and as a Host it is their mission to welcome our guests and be at hand throughout their stay, without getting stuck behind the screen.
As a Host Manager at Citybox Brussels the overall task, along with the Hotel Manager, is to work for the highest possible occupancy and the highest possible earnings for the hotel. The Host Manager is the important link between the employees and the administration and therefore has shared personnel responsibility for her/his department and continuous responsibility for staffing.
Citybox implemented the MEWS property management system this year, so your experience with this system is an advantage, but not a prerequisite.
