Park Hyatt Toronto Salutes a Leader, a Legend & a Friend
Toronto, ON - (January 8th, 2013 - On February 8th, 2013 Paul Verciglio, General Manager of Park Hyatt Toronto will be retiring.
Beginning his hospitality career as a bus person 52 years ago, Mr. Verciglio dedicated his entire career to the hospitality industry and has spent the past 24 years with Hyatt Hotels. He has successfully led award-winning Park Hyatt Toronto & Stillwater Spa from inception to present day while solidifying their presence both locally and globally. In true form, when the cultivator of excellence that he is, decided to convert an empty space into an urban spa, he was determined that Stillwater Spa would set the stage both in design and service delivery.
His impact on the industry and significant contributions extend beyond the comfort of the Park Hyatt Toronto. Whether mentoring young minds or coaching industry professionals his infectious passion and commitment to excellence has made him well respected in the hospitality industry. Most recently he was awarded Hotelier of The Year for Canada and General Manager of the Year for Hyatt Hotels.
“It takes incredible business acumen, genuine mentoring, charisma and style to help a company like Hyatt define its luxury hotel brand, and Paul Verciglio has done just that during his successful career with Hyatt. His ability to connect with guests and his teams over the years has truly been inspiring to me and our colleagues around the world. From Hyatt hotels in New York City to Buffalo to his final stop at Park Hyatt Toronto, we have been lucky to have Paul as one of our leaders and friends - we wish him the very best in his well-deserved retirement and he will always be a part of the Hyatt family.” - Rakesh Sarna, Chief Operating Officer, Hyatt Hotels Corporation.
We thank him for his endless contributions and salute Mr. Verciglio as he begins this new and exciting chapter of his life and wish him health and happiness.
