“It is a privilege to be appointed General Manager at this flagship hotel set in the heart of one of Europe’s great capitals,” says Robert Grader.
“Recent years have brought significant challenges for the hospitality industry, but Marriott has emerged with a new level of customer experience, providing even greater quality and comfort. I look forward to working with the team to keep taking the Prague Marriott Hotel from strength to strength.”
Grader is known among colleagues for his deep management expertise and his commitment to good business practices. He was previously involved in extensive renovations of the Marriott Hotel in Budapest, and during his time in Warsaw, he played a key role as Business Council Leader for Eastern Europe.
