Paul Maddison
Pacific Hospitality Group (PHG) is pleased to announce the appointment of Paul Maddison as general manager of AC Hotel® Irvine – the first AC Hotels by Marriott® property in Southern California. The hotel is expected to open this spring in the heart of Park Place, a live, stay, play destination in Irvine, California. In his new role, Maddison will oversee the hotel’s pre-opening development and day-to-day operations, including recruitment, sales and marketing. He will also be in charge of bringing to life the AC Hotels’ innovative beverage and food programming through AC Kitchen and AC Lounge, as well as locally inspired experiences for both guests and locals. A veteran hospitality executive with more than 22 years in the hospitality industry, Maddison most recently served as director of operations at PHG’s 376-room Wyndham Anaheim Garden Grove in Garden Grove, California. Maddison’s great knowledge of service excellence, along with his strengths and hands-on experience in hotel operations, helped him become a vital asset within the PHG company. Before his position at Wyndham, Maddison held numerous management positions with DoubleTree Suites by Hilton, Loews Santa Monica Beach, Loews Coronado Bay Resort and Mission Inn Hotel and Spa in Riverside, California. In addition to hospitality, Maddison also has an immense passion for wine, and in 1994 he became a certified sommelier. In 1995, he was awarded “Sommelier of the Year” by the Southern California Restaurant Writers Association. Maddison's knowledge of wine will be of use as he’ll have a hand in selecting varietals at the hotel's AC Lounge, a communal space of creativity and collaboration by day, and a social space serving specialty wines, spirits and tapas in the evenings.
