Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates, Dubai | Permanent Full Time | Onsite
Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates Dubai is looking for a detail-driven Housekeeping Room Attendant to join its five-star team. If you take pride in a spotless room, move efficiently, and understand that guest comfort starts with the small details, this role puts you at the heart of one of Dubai’s most iconic hotel addresses.
About the Hotel
Set in the heart of Dubai and directly connected to the world-class Mall of the Emirates, this five-star property gives guests instant access to over 700 shops. The hotel features 375 rooms and suites with sweeping views of the Dubai skyline, along with 20 unique Aspen Chalets overlooking the slopes of Ski Dubai. Guests can indulge in some of the city’s top dining, from authentic Levantine cuisine at Olea, to Spanish tapas and paellas at Salero, to afternoon tea at Aspen.
The location on Sheikh Zayed Road puts the Metro, Dubai’s beaches, golf courses, and best attractions within easy reach, with Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa just minutes away. With 17 meeting and events spaces, the hotel serves both leisure and business travellers — and the housekeeping team is what keeps every one of those 375 rooms guest-ready, every single day.
What You’ll Do
- Clean and service guest rooms, suites, and chalets to Kempinski’s five-star standards, including bed-making, dusting, bathroom sanitisation, and restocking amenities.
- Follow a structured room checklist and daily assignment sheet to ensure every room is turned around within the required time.
- Report maintenance issues, damages, or safety concerns to the relevant department promptly.
- Handle guest laundry requests, linen changes, and replenishment of minibar and in-room amenities.

- Maintain housekeeping trolleys, storage areas, and equipment in clean, organised, working condition.
- Coordinate with the front office and floor supervisors on room status updates (vacant, occupied, dirty, clean, inspected).
- Uphold all health, safety, and hygiene protocols, including correct handling of cleaning chemicals.

Why This Role Is a Strong Starting Point
Housekeeping is often the entry point into a long hospitality career, and Kempinski is a name that carries real weight on a CV. As Europe’s oldest luxury hotel group, Kempinski trains its housekeeping teams to a standard that transfers well to any five-star property afterward. Many attendants move up into floor supervisor, executive housekeeping, or even front-of-house roles within a few years, simply because they learned the discipline and pace at a property that doesn’t cut corners.
Dubai’s hotel sector is one of the most competitive in the world, and Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates sits right in the middle of it — connected to one of the city’s busiest malls, with a guest mix that spans leisure travellers, business guests, and long-stay residents in the Aspen Chalets. That variety keeps the work interesting and the learning curve steep in a good way.
Kempinski is one of Europe’s oldest luxury hotel groups, and its Dubai property is consistently ranked among the city’s top five-star addresses. Joining the housekeeping team here means working alongside experienced supervisors, structured training, and a genuinely international guest mix — a solid foundation for anyone building a long-term career in UAE hospitality.
