Virgin Hotels names Christian Plotczyk as the vice president of food and beverage, overseeing all culinary operations across the brand.
Raul Leal, CEO of Virgin Hotels, commented: “Food and beverage is a strategic part of our growth plan as we continue to create diverse and entertaining venues for our consumers.
“Christian will bring a fresh perspective to all of our concepts across the board. We’ve already started to see his influence in Chicago in The Commons Club, Miss Ricky’s and Cerise. We’re excited to see what he’ll bring to the table as we continue to grow the Virgin Hotels brand.”
Working closely with the team on the ground at Virgin Hotels Chicago and with the development teams in New York, Nashville, Dallas and Palm Springs, Plotczyk will drive the thought process behind room service and all new restaurants, bars and clubs, as well as create new programming in existing spaces like Virgin’s flagship outlet, The Commons Club.
“We always want everyone to leave feeling better than when they came,” said Plotczyk. “As Virgin Hotels continues to expand, I’m really looking forward to creating these awesome spaces in which guests and locals can gather, eat, drink and have a great time.”
