Introduction

The services provided to tourists by accommodation facilities are the main services in tourism activities, both when organizing individual and group travel.

Standard international classification accommodation facilities involves two types: collective accommodation facilities and individual means placement. In turn, collective accommodation facilities are divided into hotels and similar accommodation facilities; specialized accommodation facilities and other collective accommodation facilities. Hotels and similar accommodation facilities have the following characteristics:

Consist of numbers, the number of which exceeds a certain minimum, have a single management;

Provide a variety of hotel services, the list of which is not limited to daily making of beds, cleaning of rooms and bathrooms;

Grouped into classes (classified) and may have service quality categories (certified) according to the services provided, equipment available, building architecture and personnel qualifications.

The minimum occupancy of hotels and similar accommodation varies depending on national and regional conditions and current standards and is usually 7-10 numbers.

Specialized accommodation facilities provide a minimum of services and do not necessarily consist of rooms. These establishments, in addition to providing accommodation services, provide specialized services such as treatment and rehabilitation, social services, organization of meetings and conferences, etc. The specificity of the services provided determines the classes of these accommodation facilities: sanatoriums, resorts, congress centers, various types of labor and recreation camps.

Other collective accommodation facilities are accommodation facilities of any type, including non-profit ones, providing a minimum amount of services and not necessarily consisting of rooms. These may include campsites, accommodation facilities social nature(dormitories, holiday homes).

The authors of the domestic, so-called state system of classification of hotels and other accommodation facilities claim that a single government system classification of hotels, as in other countries of the world, in particular in France.

The purpose of this course work– study and analyze the history of the emergence of accommodation enterprises, their types, development prospects, as well as the state and problems of accommodation enterprises in Russia.

The topic of development of accommodation facilities in Russia was not chosen by chance, because... I consider it relevant, because intensive development of the tourism industry is beginning in Russia, because the country has all the necessary prerequisites, namely: recreational resources, qualified labor resources, a large number of cultural and architectural monuments of World Heritage – for example: the city Saint Petersburg. international tourism plays an increasingly prominent role in the global economy. Accommodation is the most important element of the tourism industry. A tourist is considered a visitor who has received a hotel room with a bed. Since the state is currently pursuing a policy to improve the quality of tourism services, this is expressed in the reconstruction of hotels built in the 50-60s, new ones are being built, a network of educational institutions is developing that prepare qualified labor resources for the tourism industry, and work is underway on advertising.

1 Characteristics of accommodation facilities

1.1 History of the development of accommodation facilities in Russia

Development of tourism in 1970-1990 occurred in accordance with plans, the implementation of which was mandatory. They were developed for long periods (5-10 years) and approved higher authorities on tourism. Standard indicators plans that were taken as a basis for the development tourism industry and services were subject to strict control.

Tourism was used as a means of educational influence on the younger generation. Thus, in the 1970s, all-Union hikes and expeditions of schoolchildren and youth were carried out. The goals of such massive tourism enterprises consisted of instilling patriotism, excursion and local history work, sports training and hardening.

Since that time, new forms of recreation began to be introduced: some tourist centers began to accept parents with children. The range of tourism services in tourism enterprises has increased.

The Central Council for Tourism and Excursions (as it began to be called in 1969) opened the Central Tourist Advanced Training Courses for tourist and excursion workers and the Central Advertising and Information Bureau "Tourist", which issued methodological literature on tourism and excursion business. Great attention was paid to the improvement of existing tourist hotels, bases, and campsites.

The tourism and excursion business has turned into large industry services to the population has become firmly established in the life of Soviet people. Routes for parents with children were developed, transport trips were organized: motor ships (river and sea), railway and air.

In October 1980, in the resolution of the Central Committee of the CPSU, the Council of Ministers of the USSR and the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions “On the further development and improvement of the tourist and excursion business in the country” the following tasks were defined:

Creation of comfortable year-round tourist institutions;

Expanding the volume of tourism services to citizens, since their growing needs were not fully satisfied;

Creation of a tourism industry, improving the quality of service;

Improving the types and forms of services provided.

IN long-term plans during construction, preference was given to large tourist complexes, including hotels, tourist centers, campsites, shelters, and enterprises Catering, shops selling souvenirs, resort and sporting goods.

An important area of ​​activity of tourist organizations in the early 1980s was the research and study of tourist and excursion opportunities of territories, regions, republics and the development of promising schemes for the development of tourism in individual regions.

In the period 1980-1992 the material and technical base of medical and health tourism gradually grew, new hotel complexes appeared in major cities countries (“Izmailovo” and “Salyut” in Moscow, “Tourist” in Pskov, “Velingrad” in Kislovodsk, etc.), new types of services have become widespread - family vacations and course treatment. During the course of treatment, vacationers lived in apartments and houses in the private sector, and received a course of treatment and recovery in a sanatorium. Recreational services were well developed on the basis of sanatoriums and holiday homes.

This is a popular direction for both education and development of the country. Many people think about what kind of education to get to successfully work in this field. Understanding this issue is not as difficult as it seems. In fact, it is enough to know just a few features of training. But choosing a place to receive an appropriate education is more difficult. There are a lot of different institutions that allow graduates to work in the hotel and restaurant business. And an ignorant person may simply get confused in the choice.

What is the work

So, the first step is to understand what a citizen who has decided to work in a direction called “hotel and restaurant business” will have to do. It is not entirely clear what will need to be done in this or that case.

The point is that upon graduation from one or another institution a person will become a restaurateur. Or, as he is also called, a hotel and restaurant business manager. The tasks of such an employee are varied.

Among the main activities are:

Universities

A more serious approach is to study at universities in the country. Modern universities offer several options for mastering the specialty of a restaurateur. You can study at a university on the basis of secondary vocational education or get a higher education. In the first case, education will be obtained. He is not very valued by employers.

Depending on the type of study chosen, you will have to spend either 2 years, or 3, or 4 as a student. In the first two cases we're talking about about average special education based on 9th or 11th grade, respectively. Higher education takes 4 years.

It is believed that working in the hospitality industry is a great opportunity to see the world, meet interesting people and at the same time earn good money.

That's right‚ but first of all it's work! This is where you need to find mutual language With different people- capricious and flexible, stubborn and accommodating, rude and polite. Specialists in this industry need to have certain qualities and, first of all, feel the line that cannot be crossed. So, the willingness to help should not become an obsession, but develop into familiarity. Nevertheless, thousands of people love their job and would not change it for any other, because it has many advantages.

Tourism manager

Profile training can be completed at MSLU, Moscow State Institute of Tourism Industry named after. Yu. A. Senkevich and others.

Travel agent

In operating companies, as if in production, they put together all the components of the tour, set a price, and then send the finished product to the “store” - tourist agency. This is where people come who want to go on vacation! The specialist’s task is to suggest where it is better to go with children, what newlyweds will like, and where older people can get treatment.

The agent answers clients' calls, looks for suitable options for them, concludes an agreement and draws up other Required documents. Communication with customers takes up 70% of his working time, so introverted people are better off looking for something else to do! You need to be a sociable and charming person, have an excellent memory, and not miss a single detail. First of all, you need to understand what the client wants, and then be able to describe the resort in such a way that the buyer immediately starts packing his bags. In this case, the information must be truthful, otherwise the dispute between the parties will subsequently have to be resolved in court.

A travel agent needs to have iron self-control and a balanced character: he resolves all problems that arise, it is he who clients call with any questions (delayed flight, don’t like food or room, etc.).

Administrator

At the hotel, vacationers are greeted by a universal receptionist. He is responsible for registration and check-in of guests, can tell guests where shops or bus stops are located, and what services the hotel offers. His responsibilities also include monitoring the fulfillment of customer requests, informing other hotel services about arrivals and departures. In small hostels, he acts as a cashier, takes phone calls and makes room reservations. In large complexes, several administrators may work simultaneously at the reception desk. By the way, in chain hotels they have the most difficult time: there are a lot of corporate requirements - these include guest rules, mandatory uniforms, etc.

Only a stress-resistant person with an impeccable knowledge of etiquette, psychology, and service principles can work successfully in the hotel business. In no case should you treat the client with indifference or ignore his requests - after objectively assessing the situation, the specialist needs to be able to take the necessary measures as quickly as possible. Moreover, the administrator must have a degree of healthy cynicism so that if complaints are made, he does not take them personally: the guests’ dissatisfaction is usually not directed at an individual employee; they are not satisfied with the service as a whole.

Both people with secondary vocational education can become a hotel administrator. The main thing is work experience and knowledge of a foreign language. In some cases, there may be age restrictions or requirements for appearance and gender.

All hotels operate 24 hours a day; in small hotels, the receptionist can replace the receptionist at night. If the first one is engaged in " external activities"(registration of visitors)‚ then the second is responsible for the coordinated work of all internal services. He controls the delivery of luggage to guests, the work of messengers, keeps a log of duties, submits reports to the accounting department, coordinates many private issues, for example, the number of guests with the restaurant administration, etc.

This position can be filled by a person with secondary education and basic knowledge. Before starting work, the employee must familiarize himself in detail with regulatory documents regarding service issues and hotel rules.

It should be taken into account that the receptionist will probably have to deal with conflict situations‚which often arise when serving customers. This means that he needs to have good communication skills and strength of character in order to be able to smooth out rough edges and find effective ways to resolve conflicts. Tactfulness, attentiveness, and a good memory will also come in handy. Typically, receptionists work in shifts and earn about 35,000 rubles. plus tip.

This specialist accompanies tourists on hikes, bus tours, cruises, and excursions. Along the route, he tells guests about the sights and traditions of the country, helps them communicate with the local population, for example, in shops when buying souvenirs or in cafes. This work is not easy, because the guide spends most of the time on his feet, bearing responsibility for travelers. So the profession is not suitable for those who love peace - it is for energetic and enterprising people!

A good specialist is sociable, polite, and punctual. He has to work with different clients, so he needs to have patience and endurance. An excellent sense of humor, resourcefulness, a broad outlook are the qualities necessary for a guide, because sometimes tourists ask rather tricky and unexpected questions. In addition, a lot depends on the personal charm and charisma of the specialist, on whether he loves his job. A careless, tongue-tied and indifferent guide can spoil tourists’ impressions of even the most beautiful and unusual monuments.

In addition to the local dialect, the guide must speak at least two. Basic knowledge of psychology and medicine will also help in your work. To be successful, you must have a specialized education, although there are exceptions when emigrants who have lived in the country for a long time and are able to talk about its culture and customs are hired.

Nowadays, more and more young people are interested in the specialty of hotel management, because with such a profession there is every chance to really quickly climb the career ladder and have big income. However, before choosing the hotel business, you need to clearly understand what exactly this profession is, what responsibilities it carries, its nuances and features.
