REFURBISHMENT Aims and objectives In this lesson students will: listen to an expert in hotel refurbishment explaining why hotels often need refurbishing study vocabulary relating to refurbishment, furniture and fittings read about the Savoy Hotel s recent refurbishment FACT FILE The Savoy Hotel is situated on the Thames Embankment, built in the nineteenth century to reclaim marshland on either side of the river. As a result, the river is narrower and deeper than in medieval times. The hotel takes its name from the medieval Savoy Palace, which was destroyed by fire in Listening TRENDS IN HOTEL REFURBISHMENT Exercise 1, page 78 Refer students to the photo, eliciting what it shows (the exterior of the Savoy Hotel in London), and ask them to discuss in pairs why hotels may need to be refurbished on a regular basis. Elicit ideas before playing the first of the interviews and asking students to check their ideas. Round up by eliciting the points made. Check vocabulary, e.g. install, remodel, innovation. If your students are thinking of taking the LCCI Level 1 Certificate in Spoken English for Tourism, remind them that they must be familiar with the specialized language of the tourism industry, e.g. language relating to hotel refurbishment, furniture and fittings. 1 Hotels need to stay competitive. 2 Hotels want to increase room rates or the number of guest rooms. 3 Customers expectations, e.g. (younger) customers demand stylish design and/or better services. Audio script Track 9.2, Exercise 1, page 126 I = Interviewer, D = Davis Langdon I Today I m talking to Davis Langdon, expert in hotel refurbishment. Mr Langdon, why is refurbishment important? D Hotels need to refurbish regularly to maintain customer loyalty, or room rates, and stay competitive. There are basically two types of refurbishment, depending on the work done: refreshment and complete remodelling. I How often do hotels usually refresh rooms? And why? HOTEL OPERATIONS 87
4 D Hoteliers typically refresh every five to seven years. Perhaps they need to add new fittings, or make changes to rooms to make sure the hotel stays competitive. This can mean replacing furniture like beds, chairs and bedside tables, fittings in bathrooms like taps or shower screens, or installing new lighting. But it can simply be changing door sizes, making doors bigger to accommodate larger trolleys. I I see, and what about more major work for a hotel? D Well, when a hotel wants to upgrade or increase room rates, or the number of guests, it will change complete guest floors. I You mean, replace bathrooms, or extend the hotel and build new guest rooms? D That s right. Hoteliers sometimes want to add air conditioning, or introduce modern facilities, for example, IT services and in-room entertainment, like flat screen TVs. I And what about customer expectations? What changes have we seen? D Well, we ve seen a lot of innovations in the business and luxury sectors. Boutique hotels have set new standards in interior decoration, especially for younger guests. Customers today are attracted to stylish design or services, such as pools and spas and conference facilities for corporate guests. Exercise 2, page 78 Tell students they are going to listen to the refurbishment expert again. Allow them to read the notes before playing the recording. After listening, students compare answers with a partner before checking them as a class. 1 refreshment 2 remodelling 3 five 4 seven 5 fittings 6 competitive 7 upgrade 8 guest floors 9 design 10 services Vocabulary REFURBISHMENT, FURNITURE AND FITTINGS Exercise 3, page 78 Briefly discuss the difference between furniture and fittings, eliciting a few examples as useful. Alternatively, use this as an opportunity to revise related vocabulary if beneficial. Refer students to the words given and discuss the nouns as a class. addition (thing) building (thing), builder (person) design (thing), designer (person) extension (thing) innovation (thing), innovator (person) upgrade (thing) Students discuss in pairs how many syllables there are and which syllable is stressed for the words given as answers to Exercise 3. addition ooo building & builder Oo design oo designer ooo extension ooo innovation oooo innovator Oooo upgrade Oo Exercise 4, page 78 Remind students to consider the types of word, e.g. noun needed for each gap. With a weaker group, this could be done as a class before students complete the sentences. Allow time for students to compare answers in pairs before going through them with the class. 1 refurbish 2 innovation 3 furniture 4 upgrading 5 extending 6 refurbishment 7 fittings What are the verbs for these nouns beginning with re-? Ask students to use a good dictionary to help them find out. In feedback, point out the shift in stress in restoration restore. 1 refreshment 2 refurbishment 3 remodelling 4 reopening 5 replacement 6 restoration Answers 1 refresh 2 refurbish 3 remodel 4 reopen 5 replace 6 restore Exercise 5, page 79 Ask students why the Savoy Hotel is famous. Students then read the first paragraph of the text to check. Elicit the answer from the class. The Savoy is famous because it underwent one of the most ambitious restorations in British history. Exercise 6, page 79 Focus students attention on the questions and ask them to read the whole text before answering the questions with the words given. Allow time for students to discuss answers with a partner before class feedback. Check vocabulary, e.g. impresario, ascending, structural. HOTEL OPERATIONS 88

8 CASE STUDY CHOOSE A CONTRACTOR CASE STUDY MENU Refer students to the lesson aims and objectives before focusing on the map and photos and eliciting what they show (sun loungers looking over a terrace; aerial view of a New England town). Ask what they know about this area of the USA and find out if anyone has ever been there. Refurbishment clean-up Exercise 1, page 82 Ask students to read the text and answer the questions. Elicit ideas from the class. Check vocabulary, e.g. contractor, outsourced, go over budget. The hotel has recently refurbished its luxury rooms and now needs a major clean-up. The hotel manager is looking for a specialist cleaning contractor but the hotel owners want an agency that is fast and cheap they have already spent $600,000 on refurbishment. The Devonshire reopens at the end of March. Exercise 2, page 82 Students read two different cleaning contractors adverts and answer the questions, comparing ideas with a partner before class feedback. Check vocabulary, e.g. custom, registered, professional. Suggested answers 1 Clean & Sheen sound more professional because they have been in business since They are a registered firm and refer to the quality standard: ISO They also mention specific cleaning methods and services in the advert, e.g. pressure washing, carpet care. 2 Clean & Sheen could be more expensive because it s a bigger company that offers services across the New England states. 3 Cleaning on Wheels don t mention specialized products or equipment in their advert. 4 Cleaning on Wheels could be faster because they guarantee effective and fast cleaners. Interviewing the contractors Exercise 3, page 83 Explain that the new hotel manager Emilio is going to call both contractors before referring students to his notes. Ask students, either alone or in pairs, to decide what questions he needs to ask them. Round up by eliciting ideas from the class and writing them on the board. Suggested answers Have you cleaned hotels after refurbishment before?/what kind of experience do you have in cleaning hotels? What type of cleaning products and equipment do you use?/do you use any chemical agents? How much will it cost?/can you give me a quotation? How long will it/the clean-up take? When can you come/visit? Exercise 4, page 83 Students listen to both phone calls to the contractors and complete the table, making notes as needed. Allow time for them to compare answers with a partner before checking them as a class. Clean & Sheen 1 have cleaned many large hotels for reopening 2 products that don t harm the environment, e.g. window cleaning with purified water and modern methods, e.g. pressure washing 3 approximately $15.00 per hour Cleaning on Wheels have done jobs like this before. Tracy s brother Evan is the front desk clerk. use well-known brands, not too much bleach 4 one week three days $12.00 per hour; $ for an eighthour shift with four cleaners 5 9 a.m. tomorrow 4 p.m. today Audio script Track 9.5, Exercise 4, page 127 C1 = Contractor 1, E = Emilio C1 Clean and Sheen. How can I help you? E Hi, We re interested in contracting you for a big post-refurbishment cleaning job. Would you be able to give us a quotation? C1 Yes, we re experienced in post-refurbishment cleaning. I need to ask some questions first. How big is the hotel? E We have 52 suites and 24 apartments. C1 Have they all been refurbished? E No, just the 52 suites. C1 And what about the public areas? E There s the restaurant, bar, pool and new spa, and the hotel lobby of course. HOTEL OPERATIONS 92
9 C1 Spa and lobby, I see. E Can I ask what type of products do you use? Do you use any chemical agents? C1 No, we make sure that all our products are environmentally friendly, for example, for window cleaning we use purified water. And we always use the latest equipment and modern methods like pressure washing. E Sounds good. Can you give me a quotation? C1 Well, our standard rate is about $15 per hour. E And how long will the clean-up take? C1 Ah, that depends on the number of floors, if there are many stairs, and the size of the areas. How much time have you allocated for cleaning? E About three days. C1 I see. We usually recommend one week for a big clean up operation. And when is this for? E It s for next week. C1 Would you like us to send someone over tomorrow morning for a consultation? E Great. C1 What about 9 a.m.? E Nine in the morning? Yes, that s fine. Audio script Track 9.6, Unit 9, Exercise 4, page 127 C2 = Contractor 2, E = Emilio C2 Cleaning on Wheels. E Hi, it s Emilio Méndez here calling from the Devonshire Hotel. I d like to ask you a few questions about the clean-up job we exchanged s about. C2 Yes, of course. E First, have Cleaning on Wheels ever done a job like this before? You re a small company. C2 Yes, of course, lots of times. We re the best in New Hampshire! Didn t my brother Evan tell you? E Evan, our new front desk clerk? Yes, he recommended you. But I have a few more questions for you, Ms....? C2 Tracy, Just call me Tracy. E So, Tracy, what type of cleaning products do you use? Do you use chemical agents? C2 Well, we use all the well known brands of course. But we try not to use too much bleach or anything too strong. E And how much will it cost for a clean up? Can you give me a quotation? C2 Well, we charge by the hour and the rate is $12 an hour. But if it s a big job, I m sure we can come to an agreement. E That sounds reasonable. And how long do you think you would take? C2 It depends, Emilio. If you have four cleaners working eight hours a day, that ll cost you 384 for an eight-hour day. But I could organize two teams with two shifts a day that ll be faster. E I see. Well, we ve allocated three days before reopening. C2 Three days? No problem. Evan tells me this is for next week, right? E Yes, as soon as possible. C2 Listen, why don t I come by at 4 p.m. and check out the surfaces and windows. E Today? Yes, that s fine. See you at four then. Exercise 5, page 83 Explain that Emilio has interviewed both contactors and tell students they are now going to roleplay the interviews, taking turns to be Emilio. Put students into pairs and allot roles A and B. Allow time for students to read their information and prepare their interview questions before starting the activity. With a weaker class, As and Bs could prepare in pairs before returning to their original partners. Alternatively, discuss what questions to ask as a class. Monitor the activity, noting good language use and other points to mention during feedback. See Pairwork files. TASK Exercise 6, page 83 Students decide which contractor they would choose and why, comparing their decision in pairs. Bring the class together to discuss students choices and find out which contractor was the most popular. Round up by discussing how the interviews went and any language issues that arose. POSSIBLE OUTCOME Clean & Sheen seem more professional because they use the latest products and equipment. However, they charge $15 per hour and they recommend one week for a clean-up, so they would be more expensive than Cleaning On Wheels. Clean & Sheen don t give an exact cost but they say a consultant will come tomorrow morning. The hotel has a budget of US $2,500 so it could pay for four cleaners to work for five days doing eight-hour working days, which would cost approx. US $2,400. But the hotel manager, Emilio, wants the job done in 3 4 days. Cleaning On Wheels are recommended by Evan the front desk clerk (receptionist) but this kind of personal recommendation isn t necessarily a good one, particularly because Evan is a new member of staff. Cleaning On Wheels would possibly be faster because Tracy says they could organize two eighthour shifts per day. They are cheaper, at $12.00 per hour, so the hotel could save some money if it chooses this contractor. If two teams of four cleaners do eight-hour shifts for three days, the total cost will be $2,304. HOTEL OPERATIONS 93
10 Exercise 7, page 83 Tell students they are now going write an to their chosen contractor. Go through the instructions with the class, checking they understand what to do. Refer them to page 99 of the Writing bank and go through the model. With a weaker class, students could work in pairs. If time is limited, ask them to finish their letters for homework. Writing model Dear Clean & Sheen, Thank you for your consultation this morning and for sending references and testimonials for your company. We have decided to contract your services for our clean-up operation next week at the Devonshire Sands Hotel. As agreed, the cleaning work will take three days, with two teams of four cleaners doing eight-hour shifts. Please send your employees to the hotel for Monday 25 March at 8 a.m. We also agreed on the following details: Use of the pressure washing method for the hotel windows. The presidential suite has antique furniture, so please do not use chemical agents for cleaning this suite. Please take special care of the new stainless steel surfaces in the restaurant and bar. Clean & Sheen cleaners will take ten-minute breaks after every two hours. The total cost of the operation will be $2,400 plus $100 for cleaning materials. I will supervise the cleaning myself and inspect the work on Wednesday 27 March at 5 p.m. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. We look forward to meeting your cleaning staff next Monday. Regards, Emilio Méndez Hotel Manager Devonshire Hotel UNIT 9: KEY WORDS Highlight the key words box and elicit definitions for a selection of the words as well as parts of speech. Check on syllable stress, parts of speech and pronunciation as needed. Suggest students use the DVD-ROM Mini-dictionary for further self-study. Homework suggestions Students write up a set of interview questions to ask the contractors, using ideas from Exercise 5. In a subsequent lesson, students could work in pairs taking turns to ask and answer their questions (using their own ideas). Students write sentences (15 in total) of their own using the key words presented in the unit. Encourage them to use a variety of structures. HOTEL OPERATIONS 94
