Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou Welcomes New General Manager Patrick Pollak

Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou announces the appointment of its new General Manager Patrick Pollak, a Four Seasons veteran who brings to his new role 21 years of luxury hospitality experience in America and Mexico. Atop the 103-storey Guangzhou International Finance Center in the prime location of the city, the 344-room sky-high hotel marks Pollak’s first post in Asia at a new altitude.

“I am thrilled to join Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou,” says Pollak. “It is an iconic and breathtaking property in the heart of a thriving metropolis. Not only is Guangzhou one of the largest cities in China but it is also a major economic engine in southern China. Guangzhou and Four Seasons offers the perfect platform for me to immerse in the Chinese culture.”

Prior to joining Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou, Pollak served as Resort Manager at Four Seasons Resort Hualalai and at Four Seasons Resort and Club Dallas at Las Colinas. Before that, he was Hotel Manager at Four Seasons Hotel Mexico. His previous experience includes roles at Four Seasons Resort Punta Mita, The Ritz-Carlton Chicago (A Four Seasons Hotel) and Four Seasons Hotel Mexico where he first joined as bar manager in 1996.

With his solid background in both city hotels and resorts in the past two decades, Pollak is well experienced to lead the team to the next level of excellence and contribute to the continued success of the awardwinning Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou.

A French native grew up in Mexico, Pollak is fluent in English, French and Spanish. He looks forward to adding Mandarin to his list of languages as he embarks on the exciting China journey.

近日广州四季酒店宣布博乐（Patrick Pollak）先生为酒店新任总经理。博乐先生曾在美国和墨西哥的多家四季酒店工作，拥有21年奢华酒店服务和管理经验。此次履新是博乐首次调任亚洲工作，也标志着其四季职业生涯迈向了一个新高度。拥有344间客房的广州四季酒店位于珠江新城中央地带，高踞103层广州国际金融中心顶部。

“能加入广州四季酒店令我倍感兴奋，”博乐说。“广州不仅是中国大都市之一，也是南中国区的主要经济引擎。而这家地标性酒店正位于这座动感都市的核心区，见证和参与着这里每时每刻的精彩变化。这座城市和四季酒店为我融入中国文化提供了完美的平台。”

来广州之前，博乐是位于夏威夷的华拉莱四季度假酒店的酒店经理。在那之前，他担任过达拉斯四季度假酒店及俱乐部和墨西哥城四季酒店的酒店经理。自1996年加入四季酒店集团以来，博乐还先后在墨西哥、芝加哥和蓬塔米塔的四季酒店担任过不同的管理职务。凭借其过去20多年在多家城市酒店和度假酒店的扎实经历和丰富经验，博乐将带领屡获殊荣的广州四季酒店团队更上层楼，再创辉煌。

博乐来自法国，在墨西哥长大，精通英语、法语和西班牙语。随着他中国任期的开始，博乐希望也可以掌握中文这门全新的语言。
