What Clients Say

I used A L Hospitality Solutions for the first time three months ago for a vacancy that we had been struggling with. They quickly provided me with a shortlist of candidates. We appointed our successful candidate from this shortlist and I am extremely happy with the service that I received from A L Hospitality Solutions.

HR Manager 4 Star Hotel, Manchester

We were very impressed with the calibre of candidates from A L Hospitality Solutions for the role of operations manager. In a competitive pitch involving three agencies, one out of the shortlisted three was from A L. A L's follow-up has been excellent too.

Head of North West based outside caterers

I have recently successfully appointed a candidate through A L Hospitality Solutions. Throughout this process their approach, professionalism and attention to detail was excellent. They provided an excellent service, with good communications at key stages of the recruitment process and consistently hit the deadline laid out to them.

I cannot speak more highly of the service I received from A L Hospitality Solutions. The support and advice offered in the run up to my interview was excellent and I’m sure made the difference in me getting the job. Truly bespoke and personalised service that is geared towards you.
