Who is Lisa Low?
Low joined W Kuala Lumpur in February 2020, so she is no stranger to the hotel industry and to the brand.
Prior to joining W Kuala Lumpur, Low began her career at the Four Seasons as a sales manager, later stepping up to become assistant director of sales at The Westin Langkawi and Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur.
She then spent five years overseeing various properties under the Starwood Hotels umbrella including the St Regis and the Andaman. Later, she took on the position of director of sales at Hilton Kuala Lumpur.
Meet Nuno Abreu
Abreu, on the other hand, boasts of over 10 years of expertise within the food and beverage industry focused on the luxury and lifestyle segment.
Like Low, he is no stranger to the Marriott family, having worked with The St. Regis Dubai, The Palm; The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company and Autograph Collection.
In this new position, he will continue to be in charge of the banquet service, in-room dining and the four B&F outlets at the hotel; Flock, YEN, Living Room (Woobar), and the WET Deck.
Known for his creativity and an unwavering dedication to service excellence, Abreu will play a crucial role in overseeing the food and beverage operations and menu creations working closely with the hotel’s chefs, as well as beverage manager Avai Manogaran.
