New Hotel Manager to helm Carcosa Seri Negara

The prestigious boutique hotel of Carcosa Seri Negara, acknowledged as the grand old dame of Kuala Lumpur, welcomes Ms Carla Petzold-Beck as its new Hotel Manager.

The exclusive hotel brand with its two mansions and 13 suites set on 4 acres of gently-rolling landscaped grounds above the city’s Lake Gardens, is currently being managed by the internationally-renowned hospitality group, General Hotel Management Ltd (GHM).

Ms Petzold-Beck will be steering Carcosa Seri Negara as its services and facilities are being strengthened and revitalized, at a significant time when the country gears up for Visit Malaysia 2007 and also marks 50 years of Independence, which coincidentally was signed in the Audience Suite of the Carcosa Mansion.

Prior to her posting at Carcosa Seri Negara, she was based in Nicaragua, as the General Manager of Morgan’s Rock Hacienda & Ecolodge, for two years before moving on to become General Manager of Coldwell Banker Nicaragua in Granada, focusing on incoming hotel development projects.

She stands to rebuild the reputation of Carcosa Seri Negara, putting into practice her years of experience working with Kempinski Hotels & Resorts as well as Starwood in key European cities such as Munich and Paris.

Ms Petzold-Beck graduated from New York’s Cornell University with a Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Administration. Besides English, she is fluent in German, Spanish, French and able to understand Italian and Dutch.

General Hotel Management Ltd (GHM) is a market leader in conceptualizing, developing and operating an exclusive group of hotels and resorts around the world. Alongside its head office in the United Kingdom, GHM maintains a network of regional offices in Singapore and the United States, as well as sales offices in Malaysia, Australia, and Japan.
