(Philadelphia, PA) – Opening July 2019, The Notary Hotel, Autograph Collection, is pleased to announce the appointment of Jim McSwigan as the property’s General Manager.

An energetic, talented and driven international hotel brand General Manager with more than three decades of professional experience, Jim has a passion for delivering first rate service.
