Problem Statement

3

Whilst the breakfast service at the Hilton Watford thrives, the evening service at the

Atelier Restaurant does not.

The Brasserie area is underused and stylistically incompatible with both the bar and restaurant. Furthermore, the current bar area often cannot

meet the demand for seating which drives custom elsewhere.


Objectives

4

Secure an ROI grant to improve profitability

Close the restaurant of an evening; making it an exclusively breakfast space.

Close the Brasserie and redesign into an extension of the bar that is viable as a breakfast overflow/private function space.

Floor plan & Amended floorplan


How this affects the figures...

Amended floorplan seats38 covers – down from 50.

This gives us a projected saving:12 x chairs = £18604 x tables = £652= £2512 saving

- £2512 = £11,151.20

Pre-Arrival Order Hotel Administration

Problem Statement: The Pre-Arrival Request facility is out of date and not reaching its full

potential.

Objective: To correct and increase our range of pre-arrival offerings, ultimately increasing

overall spend on pre-arrival orders.

Revenue Targets: Q1 - £300 Q2 - £500


Personalized Welcome Statement – Our welcome statement has been updated from the 2012 version. Correct Pricings – All of the prices are now up to date with our current bar tariff. Appearance of website - Fixing the overall appearance of the website and adding descriptions to the products to make them look professional and enticing.


Identify Best Sellers – Use last year’s offerings to inform this year’s offerings For example, chocolate strawberries sold the most in 2015. Although Champagne only sold twice, the revenue generated outsells all of the beer revenue combined.


Package Deals – Create package deals to capture more revenue, for example ‘Romance Package’ which combines Prosecco & Chocolate Covered Strawberries or a bucket of beers which encourages higher spend at a discounted price. This combines our two of our best selling items.


Hilton Honors Enrolment – As our Front Office team excelled in their pursuit of Hilton Honors enrolments, we decided to utilize this arena to capture more enrolments. So far in April, we’ve had 7 enrolments as of 16/5/16.Breakfast Upgrades – Another opportunity to upsell our breakfast, generate revenue and improve guest experience.


How are we doing?
