Robert Cook named chief executive at Village Hotels (De Vere) in London
Robert Cook, former Malmaison and Hotel du Vin chief executive, has been named as the successor to Gary Davis, former Village Hotels chief executive for De Vere, confirming what appears to be a direct job swap between the pair. Cook, who at 45 has been in the UK hotel industry for 24 years, will start his new role with the De Vere Group on Monday 16 January following the immediate departure this week of Davis to the role at Malmaison and Hotel du Vin which Cook vacated in November.
