Mr. Moritz Klein is the true definition of the GM of the year. Mr. Klein as surpassed the meaning of hospitality and professionalism by managing the Beach Rotana Hotel through intense dedication and adding little touches that no General Manager would ever do. I had a 300-person wedding last week and I have been harassed by constant phone calls from the guests that attending and the ones that stayed at the hotel, voicing how they have never received such incredible service. Mr. Klein doesn?t just go the extra mile, he walks over the mountains and crosses rivers just to ensure that his guests receive the finest stay at his hotel. Mr. Klein deserves this award because very simply; he IS the GM of the year

Fouad Melhem has my vote. He certainly deserves to be recognized for all the hard work and efforts put in to position Fujairah as a business and leisure destination. Highlighly committed, a visionary and passionate about what he does. Melhem is a real team player and a leader who recognises team and individual achievements. Well deserved!

I have never seen a General manger like Mr. Fouad Melham in my 23 years of hotel serves. I have worked with many general mangers but no general manger is as active as him and he has a complete knowledge of all the hotel departments.
