“I look forward to collaborating with my new team and leading them to a game-changing mind set whilst navigating Niccolo and Marco Polo Hotels to achieve strong, profitable benchmarks for the industry and disrupting the industry norm. I am confident I will be able to propel the brands to even more successes and build on Wharf Hotels’ vision to create value for our guests and stakeholders,” said Holger in accepting his new role.
