Night Audit in Hamburg

Why the reception night service in Hamburg has to be storm-proof

Hafengeburtstag, Cruise Days, Hamburger DOM, musicals and world-leading trade fairs such as SMM or WindEnergy: Hamburg’s hotel industry never stands still at night. At the reception desk of the Elbe metropolis, far more than routine end-of-day closings is required. Our night auditors combine Hanseatic hospitality with a cool head, assertiveness and absolute reliability.

01.

Lively nights and a reliable presence at the front desk

Whether after a musical, the Hamburger DOM or a night out on the Reeperbahn: guests often return to the hotel late and with high expectations. Our night auditors treat every guest with tact and respect, maintain safety in the house and keep everything running smoothly until the handover to the morning shift.

02.

CRUISES, TRADE FAIRS & LATE ARRIVALS

When cruise ships bring thousands of passengers ashore or trade fairs such as WindEnergy fill the houses, check-ins run late into the night. We handle the late arrivals, perform the precise system closing in your PMS and reliably take the pressure off your core team.

Staffing guarantee — right when it is worth the most.

« When Cruise Days, DOM and world-leading fairs coincide, Hamburg is running at full tilt. We still keep your reception desk covered — seamlessly and reliably. »

The question we always get

What happens if someone calls in sick in Hamburg tonight?

Hamburg is one of our most important locations in Northern Germany. We maintain a staff pool here that allows us to cover even short-notice absences. Should it not be possible to staff the night shift from the Hamburg pool during particularly busy periods, we bring qualified staff to Hamburg from other locations.

The tasks we take on

Night Audit, night porter and front office for Hamburg hotels

Night auditors are far more than night porters. They are hosts, responsible for the cash and end-of-day closing, and safety officers all in one — the professional face of your hotel at night. Our night auditors are specifically trained for the hotel industry and your property management system. They work independently, solution-oriented and always in your interest.

Range of duties

Frequently asked questions

Night Audit provider in Hamburg — frequently asked questions

We plan the big Hamburg event weekends such as Hafengeburtstag, Cruise Days and DOM well in advance and have a precise overview of the additional requirements that arise regularly. Staff are committed early and can, if needed, be brought to Hamburg from other locations.

Yes. Our service area covers the entire city of Hamburg as well as the surrounding region up to Norderstedt, Ahrensburg, Wedel and Seevetal — including the properties in the HafenCity, at the exhibition halls and around Hamburg Airport.

Hamburg hotels in particular face challenging night-shift situations, for example on the weekends around the Kiez and the Hafengeburtstag. All our processes are designed to safeguard your property and your guests. Our staff is systematically prepared for critical situations. The use of mobile lone-worker alarm systems with a direct connection to a 24/7 emergency call center provides additional safety, especially in sensitive inner-city locations.

Our night auditors work with all common systems: Opera PMS / Opera Cloud, Protel, Sihot, ASA Hotel, Suite8, SAP and many more. Training on your specific system is part of our onboarding.

This is covered by our staffing guarantee. In Hamburg, too, we maintain a pool of qualified night auditors and organize a replacement — without you having to take care of anything. Should it not be possible to staff the night shift from the Hamburg pool during particularly busy periods, we bring qualified staff to Hamburg from other locations.

No. wilkon provides Night Audit as an independent service on the basis of a service contract — not as temporary agency work. Our Hamburg night auditors are permanently employed by wilkon. Duty and vacation planning, training and the right to issue instructions rest exclusively with wilkon. The tasks we take on are clearly defined and documented together with you when we take over your operation. This clear separation of responsibilities is the basis for legal certainty for your hotel operation in Hamburg.
