Hotel Desk Clerks

Mean annual earnings of hotel, motel, and resort desk clerks were $25,040 in May 2018, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. The lowest paid 10 percent of these workers earned $18,090 per year, while the highest paid 10 percent made $34,040 or more annually. Salaries depend on the size, type, and location of the hotel.

After a probationary period, usually 90 days, hotel desk clerks are frequently offered medical and sometimes dental insurance, vacation and sick days, paid holidays, and employee discounts. Many companies offer employees several free nights' stay per year at any of their properties.
