chopped vegetables, and other components) that a cook will require for the
menu items that are expected to be prepared during a shift.[1] The practice
is also effective in home kitchens

Present Room Service Account

Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1. Apply the process in presenting the room service account to the
guest.

In this Information Sheet, you will learn the procedure of room service
delivery. This will include settling the bill of the guest and asking the time
for the clean up.

1. Verify room Service Documentation prior to presentation to


guests

Introduction
The method of payment is confirmed when order is taken. Room service
deliveries will require room service staff to obtain a signature from the
guest for the items delivered and confirm if it's to be charged to the room
account. In some cases the guest may wish to pay on delivery, and if they
use cash then room service staff will need to issue a receipt.
Account Docket/bill should include:
 Room Number
 Registered Guest Name
 Account type, Paid on delivery by credit card or cash or charged to the
guests room account
 Delivery time /date
 A List of items and the cost of each. Including any surcharges such as
delivery fee
 Total cost.
Before the account is presented to the guest for signing, it is part of a
room service waiter's job to make sure it is accurate. Always check the
details.
Checking is usually done in the kitchen prior to delivering the tray/trolley
and it involves:

 Checking to ensure that only what is delivered is charged for, there
may be a shortage of an item or it may be unavailable
 Always check items that are advertised as being “free of charge” are not
charged for, such as the wine that was part of the weekend package.
Ensure that any special deals that may apply via package deals have
been factored in such as breakfast. Check that correct and current
prices have been used and make sure that all “extras” that can
ethically be charged for, have been included ensuring the accuracy of
all extensions and additions
 It's important to re-check the room number and guest name against
the list of In House guests.

2. Present room service account to guest
When room service staff have delivered an order and
completed explaining and presenting the items, the guest
will be presented with an account, offered a pen and asked
to sign as confirmation of delivery also confirming how the
account is to be settled. Most commonly guests will add
room service charges to their room account, when
presented with the account they will sign and confirm the
room number and charge to room account is confirmed.
In some cases guests will elect to pay for their room
service separately by cash or credit card.
If the Room service account is to be charged to a credit card Room service
staff will need to have the correct documentation, this may also apply if
the guest is using a voucher or gift certificate.
If a guest pays with cash then thank the guest sincerely for their payment
especially if the guest says “Keep the change”. Staff should check that the
amount tendered covers the account total.
The other alternative is that room service is paid for by a third party in the
form of a gift card or third party account. The process is the same as the
guest charging to their room. The payment needs to be recorded and a
receipt issued.

3. Process payment of room service account


The account or bill is checked before leaving the Room service preparation
area but once the order has been delivered adjustments may have to be
made, for example the guest may, having seen the dish, decide they don’t
want it, or the beer you brought up as an alternative to the one they
ordered may not be to their liking so it has to be deducted from the
account. When all is confirmed correct the account
is presented and the guest should be asked to
check the account and then sign in the appropriate
place. Their signature verifies that the food and
beverage was received.
You must not forget to ask the customer for their
signature, as the room service docket is the only
record the cashier has to validate that the charged
amount has been paid.
The docket could be considered invalid if it does not have a signature.
When presenting the account, the customer may like to pay cash. If the
amount given requires change, and you do not carry a cash float, you

should inform the guest that you will return with the change on the next
delivery run. The majority of guests will be happy with this process.
Before leaving the guest’s room, you should advise the guest on where to
leave the used tray for collection. Some establishments prefer guests to
ring room service; some prefer to have the tray/trolley left outside the
room: In some cases room service will return and clear the room the next
day (in cases where there may be a

Settling the bill

After serving the food, you will then need to settle the bill of the
guest. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Ask for the guest’s signature by presenting the bill folder with the
bill and the control sheet. Let the guest sign on the bill to settle
payment whether it is charged to room or through cash payment.
If the guest chooses to pay in cash, give the change to the guest
and accept the payment. Also, let the guest sign the control sheet.
You must provide a pen for the guest to use.

“May I present to you your bill and control sheet Ma’am/Sir, kindly
put your signature on the space provided”.

2. Kindly ask the guest on what time you should come back to clean
the soiled dishes.

“What time do you like me to comeback for the clean up?”

Information Sheet No. 5.5-1
Clear Room Service Area

Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1. Know how to clean the room service equipment’s or area

In this information sheet, you will learn how to clean up on the guest’s
order. You will also get familiarized with a set of procedure known as the
3S: Scrape, Segregate and Stack.

1. Remove room service trays, trolleys and service items from guest
rooms and floors.
Introduction
After room service has been delivered, used trays and trolleys need to be
collected. Room service staff will have to do a floor check to collect trays
and trolleys. This must be done regularly as trolleys and trays that are left
out in the corridors look untidy and present a risk to guests.
Checking for room service trays and trolleys is a task that needs to be
included as standard duties, so that sufficient
time is allocated for it. Usual practice is to check
floor-by-floor: if you are on a floor you may as
well check for and remove all the trays/trolleys
while you’re there.
This clearing can be undertaken at any time –
day or night – but you must remember to be
quiet when clearing, because guests may be
asleep: without sufficient care, clearing can be a
very noisy affair with cutlery, crockery and
glassware knocking into each other.
Where you clear a tray/trolley and all the items
that were delivered are not there when you clear,
the accepted practice is not to knock on the door and make enquiries.
Housekeeping may well locate the item tomorrow when they clean, or the
guest may leave it out later on.
It may also be the case that someone walking past has stolen the item. It
is common practice for housekeeping staff to report when trays and
trolleys are left in rooms or corridors. At other times the clearing of room
service trays and trolleys may be combined with other duties such as
collecting breakfast menus from door knobs, or distributing newspapers.

2. Return room service trays, trolleys and service items to
appropriate location

Once the trays and trolleys have been collected from the rooms and floors,
they need to be returned to the room service area for dismantling,
cleaning and resetting.
Sometimes speed is essential, especially where there is a heavy demand
on limited resources - sometimes this is caused by the weather, or it can
be a special event on television or internet, a sports match or concert that
all the guests seem to want to stay in and watch or simply there are a
number of Guests who prefer to dine in their room.
The general procedure would be to unload all trays from the trolley.
Start by emptying the food rubbish into the appropriate bin or rubbish
receptacle and any recyclable items into their receptacles.
When the trolley is empty check the operational condition and safety of
trolley wipe off visible dirt and clean and sanitise trolley, store the trolley,
or reset for immediate re-use. Some trolleys will fold or concertina for
storage. Clean trolleys may be set with basic settings in preparation for
the next meal period.
Dirty linen is placed in the dirty linen basket or bag to be sent to the
laundry. There may be a document to complete especially if the linen
process requires the return of dirty items for clean.
All supplies such as salt and pepper are refilled and stored in the Room
service dry store. Items such as bud vases or bread baskets may need
separate washing or cleaning before reuse or storage.

3. Undertake ancillary duties in conjunction with clearing of room


service items.

Room Service staff work in coordination with


several other departments.
In conjunction with Housekeeping, or concierge
or guest services room service staff will deliver
special items of food or beverage such as a fruit
basket or a soft drink not found in the Mini bar
such as root beer or blood orange juice. This
can also include complimentary items for VIP or special guests such as
fruit baskets or local produce baskets. When a Guest has identified a food
allergy such as peanuts or dietary requirement such as artificial
sweetener for a diabetic room service may have to remove or change items

internet but still like a morning newspaper delivered with breakfast.

or messages, Guests may receive mail or packages which may be
distributed by room service with a newspaper delivery, Porters and
housekeeping staff may assist in the collection of Breakfast doorknob
Menus and in notifying Room Service when guests have left trays and
trolleys outside their rooms or require them to be collected.
Room service staff will need to cooperate with other departments to meet
guest requests. In some establishments during the summer period room
service may be required to staff a Poolside bar and food service area. Also
serve at special dinner parties or functions with the Functions staff. In
some resorts room service may have to set up and serve a meal in a
remote location on the beach or by a lake. Guests may also request a
picnic basket or packed lunch through room service. With Groups or
tours that are taking day tours room service staff may have to provide
packed meals and travel with the group to serve.

requirements.
