Lexington Reception Services recognised as one of the Top 30 Best Places to Work in Hospitality 2026

At Lexington Reception Services, we know that exceptional guest experiences start with exceptional people. That's why we're incredibly proud to have once again been recognised as one of The Caterer's Top 30 Best Places to Work in Hospitality for the second consecutive year in a row, with this year ranking 24th 

The annual list, compiled by The Caterer in partnership with Korero, celebrates hospitality businesses that are leading the way in employee engagement, workplace culture and creating environments where people can thrive. 

This recognition reflects the passion, professionalism and commitment of our people. Every day, our front of house teams create welcoming experiences that leave lasting impressions for clients and visitors across our portfolio. Their dedication to delivering outstanding service is what sets Lexington Reception Services apart. 

Our people are not only the heart of our business – they're also among the very best in the industry. Over the past year, our teams have continued to receive recognition through a number of prestigious industry awards and shortlistings, celebrating the talent, leadership and professionalism that exists across our business. From workplace hosts and reception leaders to operational support teams, we're incredibly proud to have award-winning colleagues representing Lexington Reception Services every day. 

Creating a workplace where our people feel valued, supported and empowered remains central to everything we do. Through continued investment in learning and development, wellbeing initiatives and clear career progression opportunities, we ensure our colleagues have the tools and confidence to grow throughout their careers. Our partnership with Purple Story has further strengthened this commitment, equipping teams with innovation, emotional intelligence and leadership skills that enhance both personal development and the guest experience. 

Being recognised among the UK's best places to work is a testament to the culture we've built together - one based on collaboration, inclusion and a shared ambition to deliver excellence in everything we do. 

A huge thank you to every member of the Lexington Reception Services team. This achievement belongs to you, and we're incredibly proud to celebrate this recognition together.
