UK: The BoTree, opening in Marylebone, London this summer, has appointed Eva Mount as its general manager.
Mount joins The BoTree from sister hotel The Guardsman. Both properties, as well as Middle Eight, form part of Shiva Hotels’ portfolio.
Having spent over 10 years with Firmdale Hotels, including general manager roles at Dorset Square Hotel and Charlotte Street Hotel, Mount has gained five-star experience working across other independent properties in London. These include The Athenaeum Hotel & Residences and The Arch London.
Speaking about her appointment at The BoTree, Mount said: “Launching The BoTree is a labour of love, and it’s an honour to be at the helm of such an exciting London opening. The BoTree will offer guests a vibrant and elegant place to stay with two incredible restaurants, a nightclub, and an unparalleled location from which to discover the city.”
Rishi Sachdev, managing director of Shiva Hotels, said: “We are absolutely delighted to have Eva lead the opening of our flagship hotel in the heart of London’s West End. Her experience in new hotel openings is invaluable. Eva’s thorough understanding of our purpose-driven approach to establish our own form of luxury, conscious luxury and our core brand values of truth, love and compassion, will enable her to embed the brand’s DNA into The BoTree, making her uniquely qualified to oversee the opening.”
The BoTree will open with 199 rooms, two restaurants, bars, a live music club, cinema room, and a fitness centre. The property will become a member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ Legend Collection.
