It's really important for a hotel receptionist to be friendly, patient, helpful and interested in the welfare of guests, able to work in team, punctual and be sensitive to the needs of people from a variety of different cultures and backgrounds. You have only been there 25 days, so you can't be expected to know everything. Be patient. If you are not sure, just say: "Excuse me Sir/ Madam, while I check this with my colleague/hotel manager". If you need some extra practice, have a look at this sample dialogue between a hotel receptionist and a hotel guest http://www.italki.com/knowledge/page.htm?n=Conversation%20practice%20for%20a%20hotel%20receptionist

I have worked at hotels for many years. I currently work for Marriott. What language are the guests speaking? In order to be a good receptionist, you must know a lot about the hotel and the surrounding area. People will ask you anything and expect you to have an answer. You also have to be a good actress sometimes. :)

Smile. Most guests that is enough. Be polite and nice. When I travel all I want is the bed and the TV. . Know the breakfast time. You'll be great.
