Experienced hospitality sales professional Kyle Fisher has been appointed Group Sales Manager at Malta Marriott Hotel & Spa, he has announced.

Taking to social media to reveal the move, he said he was “looking forward” to the new challenge, where he will form “part of the largest hotel brand in the world.”

Mr Fisher will bring nearly a decade’s worth of experience in the hotel industry to the role which saw him rise steadily through the ranks after beginning as a Front Desk Agent & Night Auditor.

Most recently, he served The Phoenicia Malta as Sales Manager, after joining as Senior Executive – Groups in January 2018. Prior to that he served in the sales department at the popular Cavalieri Art Hotel.

The five-star Malta Marriot Hotel & Spa is a new brand, opening in 2018 in the refurbished Le Meridien hotel. COVID hit the business badly, forcing it to close soon after, due to precautionary measures introduced to reduce the spread of COVID.

The hotel is a part of the Marriott International Group, an American company operating, franchising, and licensing hotels, residences and time-shares. According to the company’s 2020 regulatory filings, it has 2,149 company-operated properties, offering visitors over half a million rooms.
