Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris has officially
appointed Nicolas De Gols as General Manager.
Nicolas, who has led the
hotel on an interim basis since June, began
his career in 2011 with Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts where he
worked as Assistant Director of Food and Beverage in
Beverly Hills, Director of F&B in Seattle, and
then moved to the group’s world-famous hotel in Paris in 2018.
Nicolas most recently oversaw F&B operations for Accor’s luxury portfolio
of 50 hotels in
Europe, for which he developed new F&B concepts and supervised
a dozen openings.
Nicolas is a graduate of the
Lycée Hôtelier Paul Augier in Nice and holds a certificate in
Hotel Asset Management and Real Estate Investments
from Cornell University, where he taught courses in
F&B a few years later.
“I am thrilled to become
General Manager of Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris, the most
Parisian and contemporary of Palaces,” Nicolas said. “The
property’s strength lies not only in the outstanding architecture
and location, but also in the
collective skills of the different people who make up the team
here. I look forward to
this new challenge and to making the hotel shine globally
through the Raffles brand.”
The luxury hotel in Paris is part of Katara
Hospitality’s impressive portfolio which includes 42 owned and /
or managed hotels with the goal of reaching 60 hotels by 2026.
