We Present Our Extraordinary Standards

Plaza Hotels & Resorts was founded with the firm belief of creating extraordinary experiences within our properties, by providing memorable moments to our guests. Our commitment has always been to offer you only the best, working under the highest standards to master every detail of your stay. This commitment has guided us in the creation of our Extraordinary Standards, our health and safety program to deal with COVID-19. All our staff are informed about our Extraordinary Standards so that they can carry out their assigned tasks safely and thus, avoid the possible spread of the disease within our properties.

With our commitment, we develop an ENVIRONMENT OF TRUST, wanting to transmit security to our guests in order to guarantee that their stay is pleasant, and at the same time complying with the requirements of the current situation.

General preventive measures

Prevention Audits against Covid-19 are carried out by an authorized external company. These audits evaluate the compliance with the Prevention Protocol against -19 within our properties, the compliance with National restrictions, and with the measures and procedures contemplated in this document.

    • Employees wear a mask at all times as part of their uniforms.
    • All employees are required to wash their hands, at the beginning of each activity, between activities, or after touching any surface. If for whatever reason, hand washing is not possible, they should use hand sanitizer.

Social distancing measures in all interactions between collaborators, guests and external suppliers.

Queued areas are properly signposted to promote these measures. All employees are responsible for following these measures at all times.

In all areas, an information campaign has been implemented, communicating the best prevention practices, as well as general measures.

The use of personal protective equipment is mandatory, depending on the function performed by the collaborator. Instructions for the correct use, cleaning and disinfection of equipment must be followed continuously.

Employees with fever or obvious COVID-19 symptoms are not allowed access. In case the employee presents symptoms, he will be asked to return home, and his boss will be notified, as well as the human resources department. These cases will be closely followed up, and the employee will not be able to return to the facilities until he is fully healed.

Upon arrival at the hotel and restaurants, the client must wait to be carried out an access control with COVID-19 Certificate by our staff, enter with a mask (which can be removed once he is seated at the table to eat and drink), and will not be able to stand or sit at the counter.
