На рабочем месте сотрудники гостиницы обязаны находиться в форменной одежде :
- Сотрудники Службы приема и размещения, Супервайзеры **хозяйственного отдела,** Супервайзеры службы минибара: костюм, белая рубашка, платок или галстук
- Сотрудники Службы Уборки - туника и брюки черного цвета, пиджаки и рубашки должны быть застегнуты на все пуговицы и могут быть только с длинными рукавами.
Unfortunately, this hotel already has an Административный отдел....
This department seems to be responsible for (probably among other things) verifying that hotel rooms are clean and well-stocked. But clearly they aren't Housekeeping, since the hotel also has a Служба Уборки. Is there really such a thing as a General Service Department?

While the housekeeping staff of a hotel is commonly known for room upkeep--restocking toiletries, changing bedding and general cleaning--the role of the department extends beyond hotel cleanliness.

However, if we have their roles and responsibilities listed, we would try to find a better word based on them.
