    aspects service that are essential to our
    customers and offer concrete remedies

    never be left with the impression that he/she is
    guilty
  • It must be easy to apply the procedure to follow

What is Ibis 15 Min Satisfaction Guarantee?
  • All Ibis Customers must be satisfied with their
    stay in our hotels
  • If the Customer experiences a small problem we
    may be responsible for which we cannot solve
    within the 15 minutes, he/she will be refunded
    for the service they are not happy with as stated
    in ISO9001
  • This contract is applicable 24 hours, 365 days a
    year
  • It is best applicable in
  • The Heart of Ibis
  • Customer Comfort
  • Messages to Customers
  • Emergency Situations

6
The Heart Of Ibis
  • This is the cornerstone of the 15 minute
    guarantee (if we get this right the rest should
    fall into place)
  • It represents the minimum standard of comfort to
    which all Ibis customers are entitled
  • Any substandard performance automatically
    activates the 15 minute guarantee
  • All Ibis teams must ensure that this commitment
    is fulfilled at all times
  • Please refer to Heart of Ibis Manual

7
Customer Comfort
  • Customer expectations are often higher than as
    provided for in the Heart of Ibis commitment
    most customers aim for additional comfort, such
    as easy access to personnel, additional pillows,
    blankets
  • It is important for hotels to give due
    consideration to such expectations to ensure full
    customer satisfaction and to gain an edge on its
    competitors
  • The team will therefore have to adapt its
    attitudes and behaviour according to the specific
    customers requests, the quality of the hotel
    location

8
Message to Customers
  • The contract applies when a message has not been
    transmitted to a Customer
  • The guiding principle is that a message addressed
    to a Customer should always be transmitted
    immediately

9
Emergency Situation
  • This includes all problems and events not related
    to the hotel but preventing Customers from fully
    enjoying their stay
  • For these problems the guarantee cannot apply
  • Eg, Power failure, floods
  • Nevertheless, these events should not be
    considered as out of the scope of application, as
    the team should be ready to give information and
    explanation to the Customers

10
How to Measure the Results

    the 15 Minute Satisfaction Guarantee using
    various tools

12
What Degree of Initiative/Who makes the Decision?
  • Any kind of initiative can be taken to find an
    immediate solution in order to satisfy the
    customer
  • Anyone confronted to a complaint or request made
    by a customer must try to solve it personally or
    with the help of a colleague and ensure follow-up
    of the case until the problem is solved
  • When a problem is solved, one must make sure that
    the customer is completely satisfied prior to
    departure
  • Should the problem not be solved, we must issue
    the customer with an appropriate refund according
    to our commitment to quality

13
What Degree of Initiative/Who makes the Decision?
(cont)
  • It must be possible for any member of staff to
    decide whether or not to provide the customer
    with a refund (free meal, free accommodation,
    free breakfast)

    easy way out since this will not necessarily
    satisfy the Customer
