SINGAPORE: Eric Piatti Appointed GM At Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore

Eric Piatti has been appointed as General Manager of the Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore, the first Dusit-branded property within the country, scheduled to open in Q1 2019.

Mr Piatti is responsible for overseeing the pre-opening and ongoing operations of the new 198-room resort, which is located within the Laguna National Golf & Country Club and has the distinction of being the only resort in Singapore to offer direct access to a golf club.

During his career he has also served as General Manager of Swissôtel Beijing, China during the Olympic Games and Fairmont Heliopolis & Towers, Cairo, Egypt.

Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore represents a key milestone in Dusit’s global expansion and I am delighted to have the opportunity to lead this stunning resort and introduce Dusit’s Thai-inspired, gracious hospitality to the country, said Mr Piatti.

Ideally positioned to meet the needs of golfing enthusiasts, leisure travellers, and MICE clientele, the resort has vast potential, and my team and I look forward to making it a huge success.

Mr Piatti holds a Bachelor's Degree in Hospitality Management from Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne.

His mother tongue is French, and he is fluent in English, German and Italian.
