This renowned French expert in the international luxury hotel industry will be responsible for preparing the opening, scheduled for 2028, of the first Asian establishment and the tenth of Dorchester Collection, a subsidiary of the Brunei Investment Agency.
Dorchester Collection is treating itself to nothing less than “Hotelier of the Year 2024”, a title awarded by The Brit List, in recognition of its recognized skills as an inspired leader.
