at Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour |
"I am proud to have been chosen to lead the new Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour," says Mr. Mairet. "Our first order of business is to hire people with a passion for service and success. We will strive to offer a great workplace, continuous opportunities to learn and innovate, and the scope to make a difference both in the community and with the guests we serve. "Introducing the Marriott to the Victoria and Vancouver Island tourism industry will bring tremendous economic benefits as well. We look forward to welcoming corporate and leisure travellers, conferences and social groups. Each will find a new home in our hotel." Mr. Mairet is a Hotel Management graduate of Ecole Hoteliere de Paris. At Mount Saint Vincent University, he studied accounting and graduated from BCIT with a management degree in marketing. He is a member of the Board of Directors of the HSMAI Canadian Chapter. Born near Baune, France, Mr. Mairet has worked in Canada for more than twenty years. He and his wife, Dr. Karlina Breikss, settled in Victoria three years ago. They have a seven-month-old daughter. The Victoria Marriott Inner Harbour is now under construction at 728 Humboldt Street in Victoria's Inner Harbour district. On schedule to open in May 2004, the hotel is located near the Victoria Conference Centre, the provincial legislature and the British Columbia capital's most notable attractions, restaurants and shopping favourites. The hotel will feature 236 luxurious guest rooms and suites, complimentary high speed Internet access in all rooms and suites, attractive concierge-level suites and a spectacular rooftop concierge lounge. A Pacific Northwest seafood restaurant, cozy bar, outdoor patio and 5,000 square feet of exquisite private function space complement its full-size indoor pool, health club, steam rooms and whirlpool. |
