General Manager: Adriaan Bartels
Adriaan was born in Kenya of Dutch parents and first came to Ireland in 1978 to attend Clongowes Wood College, in County Kildare.
Having decided that a career in Hotel Management would enable him to fulfil his desire to travel the world, he graduated in 1988 from DIT, Cathal Brugha Street and Trinity College with a Degree in Hotel Management and ended up working in the Park Hotel Kenmare and The Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin in the early part of his career.
After two years working for Giuseppe Pecorelli in Surrey at Pennyhill Park Hotel in Surrey, he returned to help open Sheen Falls Lodge in Kenmare as Deputy Manager.
Four years later he took on the challenge of running the exclusive Royal Scotsman Train in Scotland for two years before being called back to help open an extension of 21 rooms in Sheen Falls Lodge as General Manager. The next ten years were spent establishing the property as one of Ireland’s premier country resorts.
Prior to his appointment as General Manager of the Cliff House Hotel in Ardmore, Co Waterford, in 2008, he spent the previous two years developing The Marlbrook Resort in Clonmel, Co Tipperary. During his time in CLIFF he was also in charge of the running of the Cliff Townhouse in Dublin, a sister property to the hotel in Ardmore and was involved in the operation of the newest addition to the CLIFF family, Cliff at Lyons in Celbridge, Co Kildare, as Group General Manager.
He is now General Manager of the Cashel Palace Hotel in Cashel, Co Tipperary. Adriaan was awarded a Certificate in Executive Management Development from Cornell University in 2005 and graduated with a Masters Degree in Hospitality Management from Dublin Institute of Technology, Cathal Brugha Street in 2008 to add to his Bachelor Degree.
He was honored to be named the Irish Hospitality Institute ‘Hotel Manager of the Year’ in 2003.
