bell boy
Hotel luggage attendant
A bell boy is a hotel employee who carries guests' luggage, delivers messages, and runs errands.
The term comes from the bell used to summon such workers.
Also called a bellhop.
The position is typically entry-level, and the worker is often young—hence "boy," though the term applies regardless of age.
