Born in Greece, raised in Australia, and educated in Canada, the well-traveled Peter Alatsas recently joined the team at the stunning seaside luxury hotel The Venue Corniche, as its General Manager.
A globetrotter by passion, Alatsas has traveled to some of the most exotic destinations around the world, immersing himself in different cultures.
This veteran hotelier’s career spans 40 years in the hotel and tourism industry. He has served as General Manager of several luxury hotels, from Asia Pacific to the Middle East and Europe, and he holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management from Ryerson University in Canada, and an MBA in Management Consultancy from UK’s Sheffield Hallam University.
Alatsas is also an author of four books to date. His literary work is a reflection of his experience managing luxury hotels in exotic locations around the world, and his unique perspective on philosophy and management. His books are not only entertaining, but also an essential pick for business enthusiasts. Alatsas has guest-lectured at various institutions including Drexel University in Philadelphia, Deree American College in Athens, Kyoto and Ritzsmeikan Universities in Japan, and Swiss Les Roches Hotel School in Shanghai.
Now, as the General Manager of The Venue Jeddah Corniche, he manages the overall operations of the hotel while also overseeing brand relations. “We focus more on our values; value for price is very important for us as well as creativity; something out of the ordinary,” he explains.
Alatsas leads a group of 500 employees, working closely with the team to meet the ever-changing demands of the hotel’s discerning clientele. “We create a symbiotic relationship – inclusiveness, mutual respect and getting to our targets together so the team at The Venue Corniche is able to deliver service from the heart.”
For the upcoming year, Alatsas says that The Venue Corniche will be holding a number of competitions and activities through its digital platforms that will enable the followers to win free hotel stays, a meal at The Venue’s new concept restaurants, or a holiday getaway to incredible destinations for lucky couples.
With his international background and flair for unparalleled and unforgettable service, Peter Alatsas is the ideal person to focus on elevating guest experience at The Venue Corniche, whether it’s for business or for leisure.
