Wingate by Wyndham Chantilly/Dulles Airport team member: Khalid Bhatti
Wingate by Wyndham Chantilly/Dulles Airport team member: Khalid Bhatti

CHANTILLY, VA (PRWEB) July 21, 2015 -- As the summer travel season gets into full swing, hotels throughout the region are doing everything they can to maintain personnel that proudly represent their brands. The Wingate by Wyndham Chantilly/Dulles Airport proudly honors Houseman/Driver Khalid Bhatti has been an employee of the hotel since before the first guest even walked through its doors. The hotel is managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts, an operator of over 100 hotels throughout North America, including 16 in the Washington, DC area.

“While we are very proud of all our team members,” said, Steve Lamb, hotel General Manager, “Khalid is a very special part of the hotel and is loved by guests and coworkers alike.” Bhatti started working at the hotel six months prior to the hotel opening in September 2001. In the 14 years since, he has worked in virtually every position at the hotel.

“Khalid treats the hotel staff members as if they are his family and always offers great suggestions on how to improve the service we provide to our guests,” said Reyna Portillo, the hotel’s Assistant General Manager and Bhatti’s supervisor. “He works from the heart and tries to always see things from the guest’s perspective.”

Bhatti currently works as a driver for the hotel, providing guests complimentary transportation to local restaurants, the Smithsonian Institution’s Air & Space Museum, area shopping and Dulles International Airport. Bhatti often works overnight as the Wingate is one of the few hotels that offers 24 hour transportation to the airport, catering to Washington, DC’s international travelers with various flight schedules. When not driving, Bhatti works tirelessly to keep all the public areas of the hotel clean for hotel guests.

“I don’t even recognize the hotel from where it was just a year ago,” said Bhatti, referring to the multimillion dollar renovation that was just completed. “Our guests say the same thing about our hotel. They are amazed at our new look, and I’m proud to be part of that change.” Bhatti enjoys working for Portillo “because she is very approachable and open to our ideas.”

Bhatti, originally from Pakistan, has lived in the Washington, DC suburban area for 23 years and has one son and extended family living in the area.
