How do I deal with warmth at work that's always also a sale?
You can add to almost any stay naturally, and you are tired of a warmth that is always also a sale. That weariness is honest. When kindness is tied to a target, it can start to feel like a performance, and you feel the cost of that more than anyone. But your warmth is not fake just because it also serves the business. The two can live together. The question is whether the care comes first. When you genuinely want the guest to have a good stay, the sale rides along without poisoning it. When the sale leads, that is when it feels hollow. Give yourself moments of warmth with no sale attached. A kindness for one guest that earns nothing. It reminds you the warmth is truly yours, not just the job's.
