Culture

Everyone is welcome at Travelodge. We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace, providing decent work, with opportunities to learn more and earn more, and where everyone can be their true self and belong.

Our colleagues and customers are the heart of our business and we love the fact our colleagues are from all different backgrounds and cultures, which reflect the diversity of our customers too.

Throughout each year we take the opportunity to celebrate our diversity and encourage our colleagues to have conversations about the things that matter to them such as emotional health, LGBTQ+ history, race and gender equality and much more.

Our Behaviours

We’re really proud to have such a diverse team and we want everyone to be their true self and belong. Every day is different at Travelodge – and every person is too. But we do all have some key behaviours in common:

Care about people

We really care about people and do our best to ensure that our teams and customers are happy, because happy teams makes Travelodge a great place to work and happy customers makes Travelodge a great place to stay.

Attention to detail

We know that the little things really can make a big difference. So, we work hard to take care of everything, no matter how big or small, so that everything is just right.

Drive for results

Whether it's a great customer review, smashing a target, hitting a deadline or making a cost saving, we do everything possible to deliver a great result.

Better Me

Your wellbeing matters to us. That’s why we have developed Better Me, our wellbeing initiative.

You can access great resources for your:

  • Financial wellbeing
  • Physical wellbeing
  • Emotional wellbeing
  • Work wellbeing

Recognition

We encourage a lot of recognition at Travelodge, and we do a lot of it too! We have many ways to make sure all our teams feel recognised and appreciated, every day. We celebrate a whole range of events from length of service, to the contributions our teams make towards making a Better Travelodge. And most importantly we make it fun - each month we recognise our Housekeeping Heroes with special lanyards, badges and certificates (and a few sweet treats too!). Each year our truly outstanding teams and individuals are recognised at our annual ‘Roomies’ Awards.

We know how much of a difference just a simple Thank You can make so you'll be sure to hear it a lot.
