To complement the Ministry of Health Covid-19 safety guidelines, Villa Rosa Kempinski is also implementing a new safety model known as White Glove Service Operating Procedure which is a Kempinski worldwide operational strategy and safety quality management covering all areas of the hotels, while keeping in line with the regional safety and health regulations.

To fully support the execution of the “Kempinski White Glove Service”, an extremely comprehensive guidebook has been launched.The 50 pages guidebook meticulously treats any kind of measures to be taken in all departments of the luxurious hotels ranging from arrival of the guests to set-up of public areas, food & beverage to housekeeping as well as spa areas to meeting spaces.
When it comes to the employees, they will from now on be carrying gloves during all guest interactions as well as in compliance with government regulations and advice masks, which have been produced for Kempinski by Italian hotel uniform designer Maurel, carrying the patterns of the Kempinski flower print.
Part of the amenities in all guest rooms will be mini hand sanitisers as well as guest masks. While hotel teams obviously have to keep their distance to the guests of at least 1.5 metres, all furniture in public areas has to be rearranged to keep social distancing rules for the convenience of guests.
Enhanced cleaning plans are provided by hygiene products supplier Diversey through wall charts and online guidelines to visualise step by step the flow of disinfection and cleaning of all hotel areas. Sanitising stations are spread throughout the hotel, key cards are disinfected before and after usage, cloth towels in public toilets replaced by one-time-usage disposable towels and professional air purifiers provide clean and fresh air.
