KidZania Doha inks deal for new kid-sized hotel
DOHA, August 28, 2018
The soon-to-open KidZania Doha has partnered with Al Aziziyah Boutique Hotel to develop a kid-sized hotel inside the 5,500-sq-m educational and entertainment facility, a report said.
Inside the hotel, children can role-play as housekeepers, waiters/waitresses or receptionists and engage in tasks like arranging the bed with linens, pillowcases, duvet cover and bedspread, ensuring the room is cared for and inspected according to standards, said a report in Gulf Times.
As waiters, they will learn how to arrange tables to five-star standards and appropriately communicate with the guest to ensure satisfaction. Also, as receptionists, they will learn how to greet and register guests.
“KidZania strives to co-operate with international and local brands and companies. Our partnership with Al Aziziyah Boutique Hotel will provide a strong platform for communicating with future generations and upholding service excellence,” the report cited KidZania governor Ric Fearnett as saying.
Educational and learning concept KidZania Doha, which is expected to open its doors by the end of 2018, will provide a unique educational and entertainment experience with 42 establishments. Children aged between four and 14 years old will be able to role play ‘adult jobs’ in up to 60 pretend roles, learning a variety of values, including self-reliance, teamwork, honesty, integrity and giving back to society.
KidZania is the world’s fastest growing family entertainment brand, with KidZania Doha expecting to welcome more than 300,000 visitors year-on-year, the report said.
