On his new remit at The Mira Hong Kong, Chung cited striving for new ideas, innovation and achieving consistent levels of service as keys to the hotel’s continued succes, “We are looking to find new ways to make the guest’s stay more memorable and to see things from the guests’ perspective. We will try to establish standards that we can consistently deliver, which are customer-friendly, but flexible enough to think ‘at the edge of the box,’ rather than outside it. To encourage and foster a Mira Culture will play a big role in achieving this, with the support of our world-class team.”
