Mountain Park Lodges

It took me 3 months to get 40 hours a week because they were over staffed.  They kept bouncing me between 3 of their hotels. The problem was there wasn't consistent policies between the hotels.eg each hotel had different policies regard deposits for guests when checking in, some took deposits others didn't.

They took out a $200 security deposit, rent, uniform charge and internet and left me with my first pay cheque of $83.00 to last me 1/2 a month. Housed me in a small apartment with no tv or living space. The apartment had no ventilation fan in the kitchen or bathroom and the lobby smelled like pot. It was a dump.
They had a dinner for Thanksgiving and you were only allowed to take 1 plate of food - no seconds.

It's a depressing place to live and work. Front desk supervisor had no previous experience therefore didn't know how to manage staff, communicate with guests and didn't know how to make a schedule. Repeated request to the manager fell on deaf ears.

HR is so unorganized. If you work for them for 6 months you can sign up for benefits. I was sent the paperwork for benefits the day before I was leaving. I called HR and they said they didn't know I was leaving. ????.

I worked there a few years ago so keep in mind some things may have changed since I left.

Coworkers and management were nice. I don't mind getting dirty so cleaning doesn't bother me too much although it is very physical. Very beautiful scenery with lots of local hiking trails and wildlife. When I worked there the company had a lot of trouble finding enough people to hire, I don't think most people consider a job as a housecleaner in the middle of a national park far away from most major cities.

I have been working at MPL for just about one year now. It has been a very fulfilling experience with lots of learning, group effort, and accomplishments.

was a gorgeous hotel, with classic fittings and decor. Staff were so friendly. Breakfast was amazing and good value for money and they made sure we got quick service in order to catch your  bus tours as well. The location is great - totally a lovely walk into town and views to the Rocky Mountains. Clean room and public areas all really clean and light. Rooms a great size. It felt like a home away from home.

Every morning we have a breifing from our supervisor before we start working.First thing i've learned is time management.But the hardest part of my job is to help our guest carrying there luggages.The most i enjoy in my job is making beds because  that place where i can get a tips.

This was the worst company i have ever worked for. they do offer a very good deal when it comes to accommodation but this is the only plus of working for this company. The company dosnt care or look out for there staff and are very quick to pass the buck to other people so therefore nothing is ever resolved.

I worked as a housekeeper an server. You work hard but yyou always have space to learn and get paid on time. My accomodation was cheap. It was kind of like a college style accomodation. Co- workers were generaly friendly and helpful.

Great little office, the work was sometimes stressful however definitely an experience you take away from. Had a rocky start due to the time I began employment however everyone was always eager to help.
