What I would highlight: My experience here has been brilliant! Although at first it was kind of hard since I used to work in another place, their staff made me feel comfortable because they were always available in case I need it. The first time I used the Opera system was difficult but as I started practicing it became natural. My teacher, Ramin, is a good person; he was there any time I needed him. He taught us how to deal with a formal interview which was useful for me. Now I’m part of Staybridge Suites' staff in Vauxhall and to finally become a professional in this industry, thank you Reception Academy!

What I would highlight: Former students told me this was an excellent academy and they weren’t wrong. I can assure you everyone here is always willing to help. Ramin, the teacher, what can I say about him? He’s amazing! He loves his job so he keeps you motivated. The lessons with him were engaging and practical since he gave us examples of how to behave in the front desk. The content is interesting too because you learn how to answer calls, how to prepare a CV or handle an interview. Totally recommend this experience!

What I would highlight: Hello there, I'm more than elated to authenticate my cognitive content with Reception Academy. I had a generalization that all the team is superior, skilled and consenting. The course that I accompanied, Opera Pms, is unquestionably grotesque, I did relish very much and from the first day I had generalized that it was so intriguing. They help me when I had grimness in every possible way and till present day, on the Graduation day, I'm very contented and I'm affected more and more with this Academy which made me sincere and reasoned. Now, I have the outlook to start the career in hospitality and this is my obligation to them. I will recommend this course to everyone who likes hospitality and want to hunt for a job in this sector as they give you a great possibility and is the best that you can find in and hospitality. A special obligation to Daniel and Ramin, my tutors.

History

Reception Academy was founded in 2008 as a result of a severe shortage of skilled and fully trained hotel receptionists in London. The founding team worked in hotels themselves at that time and decided to create a concept that would help young people to obtain the skills at an affordable price. The finished concept was presented to multinational hotel chains and it soon became clear that graduates from Reception Academy would have a great deal of knowledge which is relevant to hotels, giving graduates from Reception Academy a clear advantage over other applicants. The product has been improved ever since and Reception Academy is currently working on further training courses such as Online Training, Reception Supervisor, Reservations Agent, Hotel Accountant etc. Same concept, same great training, same job opportunity at an affordable price. Hotels today greatly benefit from Reception Academy students as they simply log on to our website and select the students they like. Simple!
