Mondrian Singapore Duxton appoints Guillaume Gallas as general manager
Gallas brings over 20 years of globally-honed experience to the role
Guillaume Gallas takes the reins over at art- and community-centric Mondrian Singapore Duxton as its new general manager.
Gallas brings more than two decades of experience to his new post. Prior to this most recent appointment, he held leadership posts in London, Tokyo, Dubai, Hong Kong, Macao, Beijing, and the Sultanate of Oman.
Gallas said of the new post: “This is my first time in Singapore as a General Manager, but I have visited the Lion City many times,” Gallas said. “I was familiar with the usual spots like Orchard Road and Marina Bay Sands. However, after immersing myself in the Duxton Hill neighbourhood, I can say it’s been a revelation.”
The new general manager explained that he feels a genuine sense of community in the area, thanks to beautiful heritage shophouses, eclectic shops, speakeasies, creative restaurants, tattoo parlours, and art galleries.
With regard to guests booking at the hotel, he added: “We want to create connections, buzz and wild and unexpected experiences for everybody that visits Mondrian Singapore Duxton to fire their imaginations.”
Since its opening last year, the Mondrian Singapore Duxton captivates international travellers with its extensive art collection, as well as the massive KAWS sculpture that serves as both visual focal point and resident mascot.
Also, Gallas’ passion for gastronomy, seen in the seven years he spent with famed chef Alain Ducasse at the Hotel de Paris in Monaco, already made itself felt among the members of Mondrian’s culinary team, particularly with new executive chef Kenny Huang and his new wood-fired menus for lunch and dinner.
