David Shiels, general manager, Jurys Inn Edinburgh
Jurys Inn Edinburgh has welcomed a new general manager, David Shiels, to lead the team of 80 which runs the city-centre hotel; its 186 bedrooms and five dedicated meeting rooms.
Shiels, 31, has been promoted by the hotel group in recognition of his excellent work as general manager of Jurys Inn Southampton.
He said: “I’m delighted to be back in Scotland and have hit the ground running having started the role in the middle of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The location of the hotel on Jeffery Street in the Old Town makes it an ideal base to explore this great historical and cultural city. I can’t wait to start my new role and to showcase the hotel to business and leisure guests visiting the capital.”
