"My first priority in my new role is to ensure that we consolidate all our sales, reservations and operations teams to jointly market and promote both hotel properties, as well as our food and beverage outlets," said Lee.

"I am delighted to be able to work with such a dedicated team, and I look forward to raising the standard of our products and services to an even higher level over the coming months."
