Breakfast AttendantStart the Day Right - Be the Heart of Breakfast in Downtown Nashville

Good mornings are a Nashville specialty.

Before the first guitar string is ever plucked on Broadway, before the sun clears the Capitol dome, the real magic of this city begins at breakfast — and you’re the one who helps make it happen.

At Hampton Inn & Suites Nashville Downtown – Capitol View, our guests include families exploring Music City, business travelers preparing for a full day downtown, and visitors here to experience everything Nashville has to offer.

What they all have in common is simple: their day starts with us.

We’re looking for a Breakfast Attendant who brings warmth, energy, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to create a great guest experience from the moment the coffee starts pouring.

What You’ll Do

As our Breakfast Attendant, you will be responsible for preparing, maintaining, and closing the breakfast area while providing friendly and attentive service to our guests.

You will:

• Prepare and set up the breakfast area before service each morning.


• Ensure all breakfast items are fresh, properly presented, and available when guests arrive.


• Restock food, beverages, coffee, condiments, utensils, and supplies throughout the breakfast period.

The responsibilities listed above are not intended to be an all-inclusive or exhaustive list of the duties required of this position. Responsibilities may change or expand based on business levels, operational needs, and management direction.

What Success Looks Like

Great breakfast service is about more than keeping the buffet full.

It’s about helping guests start their day on the right note.

You will be successful in this role when the breakfast area is clean, organized, well-stocked, and inviting; food is presented properly; guests feel welcomed; and the entire operation runs smoothly from setup through breakdown.

What We’re Looking For

• Friendly, welcoming, and genuinely guest-focused.


• Energetic and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.


• Organized and able to keep multiple areas stocked and clean at the same time.


• Detail-oriented when it comes to presentation, cleanliness, and food safety.


• Dependable and punctual, especially for early-morning shifts.


• Comfortable interacting with guests and answering basic questions.


• Able to work independently while also contributing as part of the hotel team.


• Willing to jump in and help wherever needed.


• Flexible and willing to adjust their schedule based on business levels and hotel needs.

Experience & Qualifications

• Previous food service, restaurant, hotel, or hospitality experience is preferred but not required.


• High school diploma or equivalent is preferred.


• Strong guest-service and communication skills.


• Basic knowledge of food safety and sanitation practices is preferred.


• Ability to communicate effectively with guests, coworkers, and hotel leadership.


• Must have scheduling flexibility and be available for early mornings, weekends, and holidays based on business needs.
