Danish hotel chain rearms: New Hotel Managers are ready to conquer Aarhus

Zleep Hotels has just employed two new Hotel Managers in the operation management. The first, Lise Havbæk Bruun, will take over the responsibility of the operation at Zleep Hotel Aarhus South in Viby, and the other, Jonas-Tobias Andersen, will be responsible for the opening and the subsequent operation of the hotel chain’s newest hotel, Zleep Hotel Aarhus North, which opens on June 4th in Skejby. They both have great expertise, a passion for hotel operation and a willingness to pave the way for Zleep Hotels’ adventures in Aarhus.

Aarhus gets great expertise

Since May 1st, 2019, Jonas-Tobias Andersen has taken up the position as Hotel Manager at Zleep Hotel Aarhus North. With his expertise in customer service, human resource management, leadership and gastronomy, Jonas is tailored to the Hotel Manager position at Zleep Hotels.

“I am incredibly proud that Zleep has appointed me to lead their next project. It’s great to have the opportunity to lead a newly built hotel, where the sustainable solutions are prioritized, and the interior is beautiful and oozes of quality. I am looking forward to “conquering” the large business area in Skejby, and to welcome both business guests and tourists. At this hotel you will feel at home,” says Jonas-Tobias Andersen, new Hotel Manager at Zleep Hotel Aarhus North.

Jonas-Tobias Andersen has 19 years of experience from the hotel- and restaurant industry, most recently as General Manager at Restaurant Gastro at Billund Airport and as Restaurant Manager at Hotel Haraldskær.

Searching for the right opening team

Now Jonas-Tobias Andersen has to assemble the right opening team before the hotel chain opens the doors to the brand new Zleep hotel in Skejby:

“It’s very exciting to be starting a new hotel. I know that Jonas is looking very much forward to manage the processes and to show the northern part of Aarhus that Zleep is here to stay. In Zleep we appreciate good service, commitment and charisma, and these values must be reflected in the new opening team,” says Director of Operations in Zleep Hotels, Jytte Vestergaard.

A hotel experience with a personal touch

New Hotel Manager at Zleep Hotel Aarhus South in Viby is Lise Havbæk Bruun. Service optimization, service design and management are among Lise’s core competencies. Competencies that both guests and employees can now benefit greatly from.

“I am extremely happy to have taken over the manager position at Zleep Hotel Aarhus South. With my previous experience from the hotel- and restaurant industry in Denmark and as Hotel Manager for several years at a hotel in the Brazilian holiday town, Pipa, I will combine the effective Danish operating approach with the slightly relaxed South American style. Our guests will be met by a smiling staff, and the hotel experience will be characterized by a personal touch,” says Lise Bruun, Hotel Manager at Zleep Hotel Aarhus South.

Lise Havbæk Bruun who took over the position as Hotel Manager at Zleep on April 9th is former receptionist at Hotel Cabinn in Aarhus and General Manager at Hotel Recanto De Sophie in Brazil.
