Sofitel Brisbane Central

Each month Sofitel Brisbane Central's Ambassadors gather to celebrate the month that was, which includes recognising outstanding as well as loyal Ambassadors. Recently, we recognised two very special tenures, with Sinh Ha from Stewarding, and Aurea Nelson from the Bistro Suzette team, celebrating an incredible 35 years at Sofitel Brisbane Central. Additionally, Maria Gardiner from Housekeeping celebrated 15 years, and James Tran from Bistro Suzette, and Sameer Khan from Engineering, both celebrated 5 years. #SofitelBrisbaneCentral #SofitelFrenchZest #Sofitel #TenureRecognitions

Behold Sofitel Brisbane Central's WOW Wall and dedicated recycling station. The Warriors of Waste (WOW) is a passionate team of Ambassadors from various departments that were recently assembled to lead and champion sustainability initiatives at the hotel. The team's completed, in progress, and future initiatives are now visible for all Ambassadors to see with the addition of the eye-catching WOW Wall, situated back-of-house. With a comprehensive list of innovative ideas in motion, the team is excited to further cement the hotel as a leader in sustainable luxury. Plus, with clear, vibrant signage and dedicated bins, for batteries, soft plastics, e-waste, and containers of change, the all-new recycling station aims to educate and encourage Ambassadors about the correct recycling process. #SofitelBrisbaneCentral #SofitelFrenchZest #Sustainability #WarriorsOfWaste

You have always been not just our General Manager, but our family. Today marks the final day of Kayte Staraj as General Manager of Sofitel Brisbane Central and 19 years at Accor. As the largest hotel in Brisbane with a current workforce totalling over 300, a formidable leader is essential, and over the last three and half years that has been Kayte. Beginning in early 2021 when domestic and international borders remained closed due to the pandemic, Kayte successfully led the hotel through this challenging and volatile time and into an unchartered post-COVID world. During her tenure, Kayte has left her mark on Sofitel Brisbane Central and its people in countless, immeasurable ways. However, highlights include leading the rebranding of the hotel’s restaurants and bars, becoming one of the first properties in the Pacific to attain Ecotourism Certification through various significant sustainability-focused initiatives, including establishing the Warriors of Waste Committee, and hosting three incredible La Nuit events for clients. The hotel’s Ambassadors all gathered to personally thank her and wish her all the best for the future. #SofitelBrisbaneCentral #SofitelFrenchZest #Sofitel #Farewell
