I guess I just don't want to do so by calling her at work - but then I don't know of any other way to get in contact. Would a letter be better? But then that risks the note (and my phone no) falling into the hands of her colleagues which could be bad for both of us...Wouldn't say there was anything obvious either way as it was just checking in / out, but nothing ventured nothing gained right...?

 It's a hard one really. I worked at the reception/front desk at a hotel and it was my JOB to be courteous, friendly and full of smiles. I did get asked out by guests a few times, but as it was company policy they were all very politely turned down.
It's deemed rather unprofessional to go out with guests.
You could try and walk in there if you know she is working and ask her out. I wouldn't leave a letter and unless you know her full name... I wouldn't call either. We had (for instance 3 Fiona's).

Then leave it at that and see. She may have a boyfriend, but if free I'm sure she'll respond if she's interested.

 Go for it...as you stated perfectly nothing ventured nothing gained. Maybe sweeten the deal by sending her flower's with a note. Do you know her name? if so send flower to her work with a little envolop with your message inside. No girl can resist that, and if she doesnt want to take it further then you played all your cards correctly and you'll have an answer either way.
good luck!
