agree  Paul Merriam: Of all the options, I like this the best. I recommend against "personnel services" which I think of in terms of hiring and firing people (and this isn't that).

service personnel


Explanation:
Parece que el texto fue originalmente (mal) traducido al español, ya que debería decir "personal de servicio", es decir, que incluye personal para dar servicio en el salón de reuniones.

Example sentence(s):
  • Cleaning and service personnel furthermore provide service at par with the highest hospitality standards.
