Mr Hoogewijs said: “As the largest property in the Four Seasons group, Sydney will present a wonderful new challenge. I’m very much looking forward to working with the competent team here to continue to provide our guests with the highest standard of service and excellence.” Prior to Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, he spent several years working at Hyatt hotels in Dubai, Tokyo, Osaka, Surabaya, Rabat, Macau, Coolum, Canberra, London and Brussels as well as The Palace at the Lost City, South Africa and The Banyan Tree, Phuket, Thailand.
