Welcome to the Hendrick Smithfield!
As part of the global efforts to tackle the spread of COVID-19 we diligently adhere to all Health and Safety guidance and policies as directed by the Government and the Department of Health. You will find PPE for your use – we have alcohol wipes, tissues, gloves and masks available to make you feel safe. The following points have been implemented for your safety:
- New Standard Operating Procedures that includes enhanced sanitization of public areas, rest rooms, lounges/lobby and guest bedrooms and corridors, with focus on constant sanitization of frequently touched points throughout all these zones. If you want more information on our cleaning procedures, let us know and we will provide you with this.
- Updated procedure to ensure social distancing and to keep contact between or guests and team members to a minimum.
- Hand hygiene needs to be priority for both Guests and Staff members throughout the hotel.
- Protective screens and social distancing measures are in place across all our hotel public areas, including reception areas, corridors, elevators, bars, restaurants and meeting space.
- In order to limit our team’s contact in your bedroom during your stay with us we will service your room only on departure, however should you wish to have your room serviced daily or if you would like anything delivered to your room we would be delighted to accommodate this.
We ask you to protect yourself and us by:
- Washing your hands frequently with soap and water.
- Ensuring that you use the hand sanitization stations as you enter and leave the building.
- Practicing good hygiene i.e when coughing and sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with flexed elbow or tissue – discard tissue immediately into a closed bin and clean your hands.
- Maintaining physical distancing and avoiding congregating in public areas of the hotel with other guests.
- If you become unwell at any point during your stay with us, and are displaying any of the Covid-19 symptoms, you should self-isolate immediately in your hotel room, contact the hotel reception desk (by phone) and the staff will assist in connecting you with a doctor. Do not leave your room until you receive instruction from your Doctor or Public Health to do so.
We hope that the above measures give you confidence that we are prioritising your health and safety while staying with us, and as always, if there is anything we can do to assist you, or to make your stay with us more comfortable, please do not hesitate to contact any member of our team.
Servicing Your Room
With everything going on and the new regulations in place, we will not be servicing rooms as normal (every day). If you are staying with us for longer than one night and want your room serviced, please request it with a team member or leave the ‘Yeah’ sign on your door for the housekeeping team.

Feedback
As you can imagine, since March the hospitality industry is suffering a lot. What really would help us at the moment is if our lovely guests gave us feedback. If you did enjoy your stay with us and you would recommend the hotel to a friend, please go onto a review site such as Tripadvisor or Facebook and leave us a positive review. As Tesco say, every little helps.
