Kai Speth, General Manager of the Sofitel Legend Metropole
Hanoi (Vietnam), won the award for the Most Outstanding Hotel General Manager (upscale and luxury hotels) at the Worldwide Hospitality Awards 2009, organized by the French trade magazine HTR.
44-year-old Kai Speth, a graduate from the Heidelberg School of Management (Germany), has 28 years of experience working with luxury hotels and resorts worldwide. Forthright and very much in tune with his employees, his management style is one of determination with the prime objective of guaranteeing customer satisfaction.
Extremely active and energetic, Kai Speth had the daunting task of conducting in under 12 months the necessary renovation work and the implementation of new standards to make the hotel the number one Sofitel Legend address.“I am very touched by this award, which I dedicate to the whole Metropole team for their unfailing commitment in recent months. But more than any personal recognition, it is an exceptional reward for the Sofitel and Sofitel Legend brands,” said Kai Speth.
This award adds to the 70 international or national awards already won by Sofitel since the beginning of the year and is the perfect illustration of the brand’s successful move upscale as part of its new positioning in the luxury segment In particular, Sofitel has been distinguished by Tripadvisor as the 4th Best Hotel Brand in their Top Ten, and Conde Nast Traveler with 5 of the brand’s addresses rewarded in the Gold List and 11 in the Reader’s Choice Awards…
