What employees say

WHAT OUR EMPLOYEES SAY.....

The managers on duty are always helpful especially when you need help with something specific. Co-workers are very encouraging and friendly, and facilities are amazing.

There is respect shown to everyone regardless of rank. The atmosphere is friendly and warm.

The diversity of employees is nice. Nobody is judged because of their race, gender, religion.

Great team members and there is a good vibe throughout the hotel. Staff/ management know you by your name and check in to see how you are and to give you credit when you do a good job. I don’t find any management unapproachable, they’re very good at their job and it makes me enjoy going to work.

My direct manager invests in my career and genuinely wants me to succeed, as well as the business.

Hands on owners and GM. Always give opportunities for growth and further learning. Free meals on duty.

The vision and mission of the company is clear and every time you are reminded of what is expected

What inspires us

At the Montenotte we are driven by our values of passion, integrity, ambition, and courage and are committed to driving a strong people culture strategy that revolves around empowerment and embracing diversity.

We have a responsibility to the Hospitality industry to make this an attractive environment to work in, a place where careers can be built, and where we engage with our broader community and attract, retain, and develop the best talent for the next generation of Hoteliers.

One of our key “Team Goals” at The Montenotte Hotel during 2022 was to improve engagement in our local community. Our Director of Sales & Marketing Ray Kelleher initiated a conversation with local Cllr Joe Kavanagh, and we learned that St Luke’s and Mayfield have a Tidy Towns Association, so since September 3rd, 2022, two of our HOD’s join the St Luke’s and Mayfield Tidy Towns group to help with painting, weeding, litter picking and flower planting every 2nd Saturday.
