We are seeking an energetic and hospitality minded housekeeping couple for this season. The hotel is nestled at the base of the Eastern Sierra Nevada in California - the perfect location for outdoor enthusiasts. Our hotel is undergoing renovation/restoration this season and this is a great opportunity to be a part of the process. 

Our Historic Hotel is seeking an energetic and hospitality minded housekeeper or housekeeping couple for this season. The hotel is nestled at the base of the Eastern Sierra Nevada in California - the perfect location for outdoor enthusiasts. The Hotel is undergoing a repositioning/restoration this season and this is a great opportunity to be a part of the process. 

Duties will include housekeeping within guest rooms including rotated deep cleaning, common and public areas, laundry, outside cleaning (minimal), and as we move into repositioning the hotel, cleanup of areas that may undergo renovation. Due to the nature of the role, the person(s) must be physically fit and able to lift, bend, stoop, walk up and down stairs easily and have strong manual dexterity. 

Pay is hourly, plus a hotel room with bath, within the hotel, a shared kitchenette (no open flame cooking in the kitchenette), free laundry, free Wi-Fi and continental breakfast on days assigned to work. Work is typically assigned for 6 days a week with 1 to 2 days off in a 7-day period but this is variable. Days off may not necessarily be back-to-back. If a couple, they will not have the same days off. We do not guarantee a minimum number of hours as it is dependent on our guest load. The work is generally, but not always,  in the morning hours giving most afternoons off to explore the area. There may be an opportunity to earn additional income after unpaid training in areas such as Front of House and Front Desk activities and assisting with the hotel’s special projects. 

We are within easy driving to Death Valley, Mt. Whitney, Mammoth Lakes, Mono Lake, Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas and so much more. Whether you love to hike, camp, fish, stargaze, or just spend time in the great outdoors, we are the perfect location to do all these activities and more. 

We are a completely smoke free property and unfortunately children and pets cannot be accommodated. If you are a camper van or RV individual or couple, we can provide a “dry” space and reimburse for dumping fees. A reliable car is a must as we are a rural community. 

We encourage folks of all ages to apply including semi-retired or retired people. If applying as a couple it can be any two people such as friends, but please note the room provided is a queen bedroom with only one bed in it. 

There may be an opportunity for the role to change into a permanent role with different terms which can be discussed after the season. 

Start date will be no later than August 1st but we prefer as early a start date as possible.
