Working in Hotel Kongress in Leoben

Life is a journey – let’s do it together

Hotel Kongress is a fixed component of Leoben’s tourism. Our guests appreciate the central location and the friendly service offered by our members of staff.

Not without reason our motto is: “Contentment is no Coincidence”.

Following this motto without devoted members of staff would not be possible. A hotel is not just a host, but also an employer. Thus, it is our responsibility to create a stable and long-lasting workplace for our employees.

Working in a hotel is a team effort!

The responsibilities in a hotel are versatile. From phone service at the reception, and welcoming guests at the breakfast buffet, to cleaning 65 rooms - a hotel can only run smoothly when everyone works together.

But let’s not beat about the bush. Of course not every work day will be the „best day of your life“.

Because working in a hotel requires:

commitment and discipline
the ability to deal with challenging guests and situations
passion and a friendly personality, even on Sundays and holidays

On the other hand, working in the hotel industry is an interesting and exciting career path. Hotel Kongress is an employer of exceptional staff with outstanding abilities. Thanks to our staff our hotel creates an atmosphere in which guests feel at home despite being far away. This effort and commitment shown by our team is very much appreciated at Hotel Kongress.

Satisfied employees are our priority

The working world is constantly changing, and Hotel Kongress tries to adapt to these changes and challenges as well as possible. We think that satisfied long-term employees are the key to a successful future as a tourist accommodation in Leoben.
