Job description

Host Position at Sweeneys

A warm smile says welcome home. Since 1900, The Lenox has been a beloved Back Bay landmark—an independent hotel known for its character, creativity, and genuine hospitality. We empower our team to surprise and delight guests in thoughtful, memorable ways. For many travelers, The Lenox becomes their home in Boston, and our team is at the heart of that experience.

We're looking for a Host who brings energy, curiosity, and a love of great food, drink, and conversation. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, enjoy connecting with people from all walks of life, and believe hospitality is both an art and a team sport, we'd love to meet you.

Our hosts do far more than greet and seat—they set the tone for the entire dining experience. You'll create a warm, welcoming atmosphere, manage the flow of service, and support the team in delivering exceptional hospitality across our three distinct outlets:

Sweeney's on Boylston. A lively neighborhood favorite serving authentic Irish classics and Lenox staples. Always spirited, always welcoming.

The Irving at The Lenox. An intimate lobby cocktail bar with turn-of-the-century charm, known for beautifully crafted cocktails and a sense of intrigue.

Willow & Ivy. Led by Executive Chef Daniel Kenney, Willow & Ivy offers a fresh, refined take on New England–inspired American cuisine in a reimagined, inviting space.

What you'll do:

Create a warm, memorable first impression for every guest

Manage reservations and guest flow to ensure timely, seamless service

Answer phone inquiries and reservations

Maintain exceptional service standards and a polished, professional demeanor

Assist the service team by clearing and resetting tables as needed

Keep host stations and equipment clean, organized, and guest-ready

Anticipate and exceed guest expectations with confidence and care

What we're looking for:

Strong verbal communication skills in English; multilingual candidates are a plus

At least 1 year of experience in hospitality, preferably in a food & beverage department

Familiarity with Toast or similar POS systems is helpful

Ability to work a flexible schedule including days, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Weekend availability is required

Why you'll want to work here:

Salary range of $20 to $22 per hour, based on experience.

Affordable medical, dental, for full-timers

401(k) with generous employer match

Vacation, holiday, and paid sick time

Complimentary meals during shifts

Discounted parking available
