Well, depending on how many users you have, you could get the
receptionist a nice multiline phone and put a line for every user on it.
The Polycom 6xx phone with sidecars can handle quite a few.  

That setup will ring _simultaneously_ on the real number and the
receptionist, but the receptionist will be able to see which line the
call is ringing.

Then of course, you could just not give the individual users
direct-dialable numbers and send all calls to the receptionist.
