concierge 這個字最perfect!
如果你常常造訪五星級飯店, 會發現櫃臺上放的牌子就是這個字
You really have misunderstood the idea of concierge.如果你常常造訪五星級飯店, 會發現櫃臺上放的牌子就是這個字
Concierge and front desk are two separate desks.
Concierge do things NOT associated with the hotel, like arrange for
limousine or airport shuttle, outside tours, restaurant and theater
bookings, and things like that.
And if Taiwanese hotels actually put "concierge" on their front desk,
they are guilty of butchering English and is guilty of perpetuating
"Engrish" (http://www.engrish.com)
然後試圖以"維護正統傳統英文"這種煙幕混淆
你可能須要實地去看看歐美和台灣的飯店, 到底飯店櫃台是如何?
再者生活英文跟文學跟道統沒啥衝突也沒有爭點, 不要扯胡
有空你也可以讀讀法文, 了解歐美生活語言用法
concierge這字基本上就是由法文而來
在今日來說, 飯店的concierge不是開門服務生或是泊車小弟了
一般五星級飯店櫃台分 reception(【英】接待處 ),
wireless internet service, concierge.
跟check in, check out有關的大部由reception負責, 旅客進住後
許多服務都由concierge負責, 像是information & concierge功能

也提到concierge的解釋, (歐洲的)旅館服務臺職員
另我將你略掉的版友回答再補回供參考, 多知道一些用法總是好的
你的說法: ***@bbs.cs.nthu.edu.tw (Jason) 提到:
A front desk clerk. If you are calling to book, just say,
"Give me the front, please." Concierge is "a member of a
staff in charge of special services for theater ticket
or tours (dictionary.com)." In most expensive hotels,
there is only one concierge, whose desk is normally not far
from the front gate. He (I haven't seen a she yet) does not
take care of check-in, check-out or reservation.
In Taiwan, they put a "concierge" sign on the front desk,
it means if you need any special services, you can also ask
the clerk for help.
bull版友的回答:
Is is totally wrong of your impression about the most expensive
hotel service in Taiwan. There is more than one concierge and whose
desk is right next to the check in and out desk, not near
the front gate at all.
It is kind of concierge and information desk, you can ask for help
and leave small luggage for safe. There is surely a computer on the
desk for informations, and not only male but also female concierge
you can access to.
