When Alicia Too visited a friend who was working at a luxury hotel in Macao 25 years ago, she fell in love with the working environment and ambience of hotels. That was the spark that ignited the passion for the Macanese to start a career in the hospitality industry, a love that continues to this day.
She began her career as a sales representative in a five-star luxury hotel group which further extended her passion for the industry. “From there, I was given the opportunity to develop myself by taking on more responsibilities ranging from marketing and engineering to security. I could see myself growing in the company, and developing my hidden potential. The fun and dynamic working environment of the hospitality industry made my work all the more enjoyable, and there were countless opportunities to meet new people and learn new things every day,” she said.
Today, that experience has prepared her well to be the General Manager of Lanson Place Hotel, Hong Kong. Established in 2005, the hotel is a “Small Luxury Hotels of the WorldTM” member hotel. It may be a small boutique hotel, but it has a big reputation for providing affordable luxury with city-centre convenience. It also provides warm and personalised guest services with its unique “WOW Walk” local tour for long-staying guests to explore the hotel surroundings and introduce the wide array of entertainment, shopping and restaurant choices nearby.
Lanson Place Hotel, Hong Kong joined the Chamber in 2005 to get the latest business information and take advantage of platforms for reaching out to the business community.
“The Chamber is a great organisation as it provides platforms for the businesses to connect and to learn about business opportunities around the world. I am very impressed by the wide array of events on offer,” said Too.
With the Chamber’s strong membership and connections, brand awareness of Lanson Place Hotel, Hong Kong has been strengthened among the local business community.
“We can easily build relationships and stay connected with fellow members by attending cocktail receptions, and also sharing our ideas with other members,” she added.
