Didier Tourneboeuf appointed General Manager of Anantara Qasr Al Sarab Resort

Minor Hotel Group has appointed Didier Tourneboeuf as General Manager of the new Anantara Qasr Al Sarab Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi.

Didier joins Anantara Qasr Al Sarab from his position as General Manager of Le Royal Méridien, Abu Dhabi where he was responsible for a considerable increase of market share over a two-year period.

Didier, who is a French national, has a very strong background in hotel openings having worked as part of the launch teams at Le Meridien hotels in Australia, the US, China, Thailand, Indonesia and Cambodia.

Anantara Qasr Al Sarab, slated to open in late 2009, is located in the renowned Empty Quarter – a vast expanse of towering sand dunes stretching from the southern reaches of the kingdom of Saudi Arabia across into Oman and the UAE. The hotel’s design will reflect the simple grandeur of an old desert fortress.

Didier is a graduate of the renowned Strasbourg Hotel School in Switzerland and is married with a grown-up son.
