Travel News Asia Latest Travel News Podcasts Videos Thursday, 7 July 2011

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has appointed Paul Arnold as Vice President of Development of the company’s Global Development Team for the Middle East, Africa and Indian Ocean.

In this newly created position, Arnold will be responsible for leading Rosewood’s expansion initiatives within the MEAIO regions, as well as providing support for development activities in Europe.

Arnold joins Rosewood following 12 years working globally with Ernst & Young, five of which were spent in the United States before relocating to the Dubai office where he helped establish and eventually became responsible for leading the company’s real estate, hospitality and leisure advisory services practice across the Middle East and North Africa region.

Prior to joining Ernst & Young, Arnold began his career in the hotel industry by serving in operational roles at several hotel properties within the United States. He is a graduate of the School of Hotel Administration at Cornell University.

“Paul has spent the past seven years in the Middle East and brings extensive hospitality experience, a strong industry network and deep regional market knowledge to his new position,” said Alex Alt, Senior Vice President of Global Development and Strategy for Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. “His experience and wealth of knowledge make him the ideal candidate to build upon the success of Rosewood’s Saudi Arabian properties as well as drive the opening of Rosewood Abu Dhabi and Rosewood Dubai hotels. We look forward to watching Rosewood’s growth and penetration in these regions accelerate under his leadership.”

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts currently operates three hotels in the Middle East – Al Faisaliah Hotel, A Rosewood Hotel and Hotel Al Khozama in Riyadh and Rosewood Corniche in Jeddah.

Rosewood Abu Dhabi is scheduled to open in the summer of 2012, following the recent appointment of Luigi Romaniello to Managing Director, while Rosewood Dubai will become operational in late 2012.
