45: Paul Arnold, vice president development - Europe, Middle East & Africa at Rosewood Hotels & Resorts
Over the past year, Paul Arnold has continued to drive Rosewood Hotels and Resorts development in the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
Currently, the company operates three hotels in the Middle East – Al Faisaliah Hotel, A Rosewood Hotel and Hotel Al Khozama in Riyadh and Rosewood Corniche in Jeddah — but Arnold is focused on the brand’s growth in the region.
It is expected to debut in the capital Abu Dhabi before the year is out. The planned Rosewood Dubai, however, has been delayed with the operator unable to confirm an opening year.
