I have to admit I admire the problem but do not have an answer. What I would like to suggest that dropping the "desk" part and just using "reception" could make it more conducive to the various applications being discussed. It could then be added as a subcategory to the area/building such as reception=desk...reception=area.......reception=kiosk.. and would accommodate the problem of more than one type of reception within a complex such as an hotel (reception=tourism...reception=hotel). Or at an airport complex where multiple receptions exist such as hotel, car hire,etc. Using this would then also not clash with the amenity tag. Hope I am not adding more confusion to the problem.
