Basic Laundry Request · 基本洗衣
basicHi, I need to get some clothes laundered. How does the hotel laundry service work?
你好,我需要洗几件衣服。酒店的洗衣服务是怎么运作的?
💡 酒店洗衣服务一般按件收费,房间里会有洗衣袋和价目表。也可以问有没有自助洗衣房(self-service laundry),价格便宜很多。
Sure! There's a laundry bag and price list in your closet. Fill out the form, put your clothes in the bag, and leave it outside your door before 9 a.m. for same-day service. You'll have them back by 6 p.m.
当然!衣柜里有洗衣袋和价目表。填好表格,把衣服装进袋子里,早上9点前放在门外就能当天取回。下午6点前送还。
Great. How much does it cost per item? I have about five shirts and two pairs of pants.
好的。每件衣服多少钱?我有大概五件衬衫和两条裤子。
💡 酒店洗衣按件计费,衬衫通常$5-10,裤子$8-12。比外面洗衣店贵很多。如果预算有限,可以问有没有 self-service laundry room。
Shirts are $6 each and pants are $9. So for five shirts and two pants, that would be $48 before tax. We also have an express service if you need them back sooner — that's a 50% surcharge.
衬衫每件6美元,裤子每条9美元。五件衬衫加两条裤子税前48美元。如果需要加急,有快洗服务——加收50%。
I'll go with the regular service, no rush. Is there a self-service laundry room in the hotel as well?
我选普通服务就行,不急。酒店里有自助洗衣房吗?
💡 很多酒店(特别是长住型和经济型)有 self-service laundry room,投币或刷房卡使用,比酒店洗衣服务便宜得多。
Yes, there's a coin-operated laundry room on the second floor near the ice machine. Washers are $3 and dryers are $2 per load. Detergent pods are available from the vending machine next to it for $1.
有的,二楼制冰机旁边有一个投币洗衣房。洗衣机每次3美元,烘干机每次2美元。旁边自动贩卖机有洗衣液胶囊,1美元一个。
Special Garments & Rush Service · 特殊衣物与加急处理
intermediateI have a silk dress and a wool suit that need special care. Can the hotel handle dry cleaning, or do you send it out?
我有一件丝绸裙子和一套羊毛西装需要特殊处理。酒店能干洗吗,还是送到外面去?
💡 高端酒店通常有自己的干洗设施,普通酒店会外包给专业干洗店。外包可能需要更长时间(24-48小时)。silk 和 wool 属于 delicate fabrics,需要干洗。
We partner with a professional dry cleaner nearby. Silk dresses are $18 and wool suits are $25. Turnaround is 24 hours. We inspect every item before and after, and they're returned on hangers with garment bags.
我们与附近一家专业干洗店合作。丝绸裙子18美元,羊毛西装25美元。24小时取回。每件衣物送洗前后都会检查,送回时会挂在衣架上套上防尘袋。
The suit actually has a small stain on the lapel. Can they treat that, or should I point it out specifically?
西装翻领上有个小污渍。他们能处理吗,还是我需要特别指出来?
💡 送干洗时指出污渍位置很重要,这样干洗店会做预处理(pre-treat)。不指出的话可能按常规处理,污渍不一定能完全去除。
Definitely point it out — I'll note it on the form for you. They'll pre-treat the stain before cleaning. If it doesn't come out completely, they'll let us know and won't charge for that service. Do you know what the stain is from?
一定要指出来——我会在表格上帮您备注。他们会在清洗前预处理污渍。如果没完全洗掉,会通知我们并且不收那项费用。您知道污渍是什么吗?
I think it's red wine. Also, I need the suit back by tomorrow morning — I have a conference. Is express dry cleaning possible?
应该是红酒渍。另外,我明天早上有会议,需要西装提前拿回来。可以加急干洗吗?
💡 红酒渍是干洗店最常处理的污渍之一。express/rush service(加急服务)通常加收50-100%费用。如果是重要场合的衣服,建议提前说明用途。
Red wine is very treatable. Yes, we offer express dry cleaning — there's a 75% surcharge, so the suit would be $43.75. We can have it back by 7 a.m. tomorrow, pressed and ready to wear. Shall I arrange that?
红酒渍很好处理。是的,我们有加急干洗——加收75%,西装是43.75美元。明早7点前送回,熨好可以直接穿。需要安排吗?
