Front Desk Clerk at Lafayette Hotels Boothbay Harbor Inn

Imagine starting your workday with a view of sparkling water, sailboats, and the famous Boothbay Harbor Footbridge right outside your door. At Lafayette Hotels Boothbay Harbor Inn, you'll join an international team at one of Maine's most beloved waterfront destinations – and gain hands-on experience in professional hotel front-office operations that will look great on any CV.

As a Front Desk Clerk, you are the face of the hotel. You'll greet guests, manage check-ins and check-outs, handle telephone reservations, process payments, and share insider tips about the local area. Every shift brings new people, new conversations, and the satisfaction of directly shaping a guest's vacation experience. The employer has a strong track record of hiring international students and values the diverse energy they bring to the team.

When you're off the clock, adventure is right outside. Stroll into town across the iconic Footbridge, join a whale-watching or sailing tour, kayak the harbor, hike scenic trails, or explore the famous Boothbay botanical gardens. In June, don't miss the legendary Windjammer Festival – fireworks, tall ships, a street parade, and live music all in one place.
