Great Fosters has appointed Sandra Mueller as general manager, following the hotel’s addition to the Alexander Hotels collection.
Since Great Fosters was acquired by Alexander Hotels in November 2018, the property has undergone some initial refurbishments by co-owners Paul and Deborah Hinchcliffe, which will continue into this year.
Mueller has been in the industry for over 15 years, working in a range of different hotels including Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, as well as four Firmdale Hotel properties.
Mueller said: “I am very happy to have joined the fantastic Great Fosters team. It is an exciting time for the hotel with a new head chef recently being appointed at our 4AA Rosette and Michelin Star restaurant, The Tudor Room, and additional refurbishments taking place over the next few months.
“I’m in the midst of getting to know the guests, the team and the hotel at the moment, preparing for the next phase of refurbishments that will start imminently. I’m very much looking forward to what the future has to hold at Great Fosters.”
Mueller joined the team in April and has “begun to implement her ideas and plans for the future of the award-winning hotel”.
Peter Hinchcliffe, co-owner of Great Fosters, added: “We’re thrilled to welcome Sandra to the team at Great Fosters. Since purchasing the hotel at the end of last year, we have made some initial changes and we have plans to continue making improvements to the property. We’re really proud of what we have achieved so far and we’re certain that Sandra will help to bring our vision for the hotel to life with her breadth of experience and knowledge within the industry.”
