The accommodation problem

Guests form a view of a property in the walk from the kerb to the lift. Fingerprints on the entry glass, a dusty ledge by the concierge desk or a worn track of grime down a corridor tell them how the rest of the stay will go, and they say so in reviews.

The hard part is that a hotel never really closes. People check in at midnight, cross the lobby at dawn for flights and fill the breakfast room at once. Cleaning has to fit around that flow, and it has to look the same whether it's done by the morning, evening or weekend shift. That's usually where it falls apart.

When it does, your front office team ends up wiping counters between guests and housekeeping gets pulled away from rooms to cover public areas. Neither is what you're paying them for.

What's included

Regular cleaning

  • Entrances, drop-off glass, lobbies and reception desks
  • Lift cars, landings, stairwells and guest corridors
  • Public toilets and lobby amenities cleaned and restocked
  • In-house bars, lounges and breakfast rooms
  • Guest gyms, pool decks and business centres
  • Back-of-house corridors, staff change rooms, canteens and offices
  • Guest rooms and apartments, where they're part of the scope

Periodic and specialist cleaning

  • Conference, ballroom and meeting room turnarounds
  • Corridor, lobby and function room carpet steam cleaning
  • Hard-floor scrubbing and polishing in entries and foyers
  • High dusting of chandeliers, pendants, vents and architraves
  • Mirrors, balustrades and internal glass
  • Deep cleans before peak seasons, audits or refurbishment handovers

How we work around your property

  • Quiet hours for the heavy work.

    Floor machines, carpet work and high dusting happen overnight or early, so nobody wheels a suitcase around a wet-floor sign at check-in.

  • One checklist, every shift.

    The scope is written by area and by shift, so day, evening and weekend teams are working to the same standard.

  • People who know the building.

    A regular team learns the service lifts, the busy times and how your front desk likes things done.

  • Inspected without being asked.

    Your account manager walks the property on a set schedule and follows up on anything that falls short.

Melbourne accommodation: what we plan for

Melbourne's hotels and serviced apartments cluster in the CBD, Southbank, Docklands and along St Kilda Road, with more around the airport at Tullamarine and down the Mornington Peninsula. Demand moves with the event calendar. The tennis in January, the Grand Prix in March, footy finals in September and the spring racing carnival in October and November fill rooms and function spaces, and big conferences at the exhibition centre in South Wharf bring waves of guests through lobbies at the same moment. Weather matters as well. Four seasons in a day sends wet umbrellas and muddy shoes across lobby floors, so we put extra attention on entries, mats and lift landings on wet days.

FAQs

It's priced on your property. The main drivers are the floor area of public spaces, the number of levels and lifts, how many shifts you need covered, how often function rooms turn over, and whether rooms or apartments are included. We quote from a walk-through and a written scope. Call (03) 9021 1206 to arrange one.

Where it's part of the scope, yes. Many properties use us for public areas, function spaces and back of house, and keep room servicing with their own housekeeping team. We'll work out the split with you at the walk-through.

Yes. Scopes can run across the full week, including overnight, so lobbies and corridors are looked after while guests are still arriving and leaving.

That depends on the room size and the setup, and we plan it with your events team. Turnarounds are built into the scope so the next booking isn't kept waiting.

Tell us the dates early. We can add hours, extra cleans or another crew for busy periods, then return to your normal roster afterwards.

Yes. Each property has its own scope, and you have one account manager and one NEXUS login for the whole group. Nationally, New Era looks after 450+ sites across Australia and NZ.
