“Passionate Hotelier

Michael Shepherd's Inspirational Journey

Career Path: Hotel Administration Degree > Managed Hotels

“I have 30 years of International Hotel Experience"

My Story: I would describe myself as a hotelier passionate about aiming  for excellence by giving warm hospitality through highly motivared team members. I have more than 30 years of international industry experience, having travelled extensively and managed a number of five star hotels across the world. I now work as the General manager of the London Hilton on Park Lane, having worked for Hilton for 21 years previously, and most recently, after six years as managing director of The Savoy in London. During my early time at Hilton I opened the Hilton Lesotho, South Africa, as well as managing Hiltons in Istanbul, Corfu, Athens, Nicosia and Cairo and the newly opened Langham Hilton in London. I also worked for a time in the regional team within the Middle East, Africa and European division, involved with budgeting, capital planning and corporate development.
