The Hotel Colorado is hiring for a part time bell person. We are looking for applicants who are friendly and able to lift heavy luggage. No experience necessary! We will train you. Your pay rate at this position will be $15.00/hr. plus tips and porterage. What is porterage? Our hotel has tour groups that stay here. Their luggage usually arrives separate from the guests and needs to be taken up to the guests' rooms before they arrive. Their luggage needs to be brought down when they are leaving and loaded up. The porterage tip is money paid per bag to our employees who help with this. Some of the great perks of this job are accrued sick time, a free employee meal with each shift and an employee rate at our sister property. Our company has an Employee Assistance Program available to all employees and immediate family members.
