Rocco Forte Hotels Appoints New Director of Group & Incentive Sales

Rocco Forte Hotels is pleased to announce the appointment of Patrizia di Patrizio as Director of Group & Incentive Sales.  With over a fifth of Rocco Forte Hotels’ annual turnover now dependent on MICE business, this is an important and challenging role in which Patrizia will be responsible for further strengthening the brand’s commitment to this sector of the market.

Patrizia joins Rocco Forte Hotels with nearly 10 years of experience in the luxury hotel sector.  Most recently, she was Regional Sales Manager Conference and Incentive Market for Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group in London, prior to which she worked in-house at Four Seasons Hotel Canary Wharf in group sales.  Patrizia has also worked in France, most notably at Hotel Concorde La Fayette in Paris.
