Due to maternity leave, we are looking for a new colleague. City Hotel Rembrandt is a small, charming city hotel in Leiden. We are looking for a hospitable and professional Front Office Associate who welcomes our guests with a smile and feels comfortable working independently.

  • Welcoming guests and providing a warm, professional reception
  • Front desk duties (including check-ins/check-outs, administration, and general reception tasks)

  • Preparing and assisting with breakfast, ensuring the breakfast area is tidy and well presented
  • Noticing special requests/issues and coordinating with colleagues when needed (e.g., housekeeping/management)
  • Keeping the reception/work area neat and organised throughout your shift


Who are you?

You recognise yourself in the following:

  • You are hospitable, professional, and enjoy being the first point of contact
  • You can work independently and maintain an overview
  • You are punctual, flexible, and perform well under pressure
  • You are solution-oriented and think in possibilities
  • You have a good command of Dutch and English (spoken and written)
  • Experience in reception/hospitality is a plus, but not required — we value the right attitude and sense of responsibility


What do we offer?

  • A temporary position within a small organisation with short lines of communication
  • Varied tasks: breakfast service, front desk duties, and guest contact
  • A role with a lot of independence and responsibility
  • Working at a pleasant location in Leiden
