Running hotel valet: overnight cars, key control and guest experience

Best practices for hotel valet teams handling multi-day stays, shift handovers and high-value vehicles.

Last updated: 2026-08-20

Multi-day stays

Hotel guests may leave a car for days. Digital tickets stay valid for the whole stay, and guests can request the car from their room.

Shift handovers

A searchable parked inventory with hook numbers and timestamps means the next shift knows exactly what is where, without a paper log.

Several attendant phones

All attendant phones stay in sync in real time, so a request taken at the front door appears instantly for the runner in the garage.
