concierge
Lobby desk staffer
A concierge is a staff member at a hotel or apartment building who assists guests or residents with services—making reservations, arranging transportation, securing tickets, recommending restaurants.
The role combines doorman, information desk, and personal assistant.
In healthcare, a concierge practice offers enhanced access to a physician for an annual fee: concierge medicine.
