Working at The Ramble Hotel is going to be different than your last hospitality job. Our focus in on our team first and the guest second. The hospitality industry is well known for creating impassioned guest experiences but, behind the scenes, associates work in a fairly un-hospitable environment. We are small by design so that we can focus on creating a highly rewarding and empowering workplace environment and are passionate about creating a property that is as equally fulfilling for our associates as it is for our guests.
Talk is great, but we also wanted to share a couple tangible reasons why we’re different:
*One-hour paid lunch per week - we encourage you to get off property and meet some friends for lunch.
*Tips - When you go above & beyond with a positive attitude, you will be directly compensated above & beyond in our luxury/boutique hotel environment. You won't be on shift with anyone else, so all tips on every shift are all yours!
We also believe that this hotel doesn’t exist in Denver, which is why we set out to create it. Please carefully read through the following pages to determine if this job is the right fit for you. If it's not the right fit for you, that's perfectly okay, just please don't apply and then not show up for an interview.
