Workers are calling for higher wages, fair staffing and workloads, and the reversal of COVID-era cuts. The union says that many hotel owners like Park took advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic to drive staffing and service cuts that were never restored.
In 2020, Park Hotels said it planned a “permanent reduction of full-time, hotel level staffing” through plans to expand “contactless check-in/room service,” “limit housekeeping,” and “eliminate or re-purpose unprofitable F&B operations (e.g., buffets) and outlets.”

“I’m on strike because my workload is overwhelming and exhausting. I love my job and I want to take care of our guests, but with the understaffing I am stretched so thin,” said Jason Viveiros, a front desk agent at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. “My wife and I are expecting another child in a few months so having a reasonable workload would mean that instead of being physically and mentally depleted every day, I have the energy to take care of my family and their needs.”
The union urges travelers not to eat, meet, or sleep at any hotel that’s on strike. Picket lines will run outside struck hotels for up to 24 hours a day, and hotels may suspend services while trying to operate with skeleton staffing. Guests have experienced disruptions including unavailable daily housekeeping, towels and linens piled up in hallways, piles of trash visible outside, closed bars and restaurants, and reduced pool hours.
