38 PAM WILBY
COMPLEX GM, GROSVENOR HOUSE DUBAI AND LE ROYAL MÉRIDIEN BEACH RESORT & SPA
Unlike many hoteliers, Pam Wilby has stayed in one place for some 18 years … while her property and responsibilities have grown around her.
Joining the Forte Grand Jumeira Beach as deputy general manager in April 1993, she took over the managerial reins in 2000, overseeing the hotel’s rebranding as Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort & Spa.

Since then, Wilby has taken charge of the Grosvenor House, supervising the project from inception to launch in 2005, and the resulting rebranding as Starwood’s first Luxury Collection property in the UAE.
This year, the hotel will nearly double in size when a twin tower will add 323 rooms, suites and apartments as well as five premier villas to the inventory.
