Hotelier Boris Messmer has been appointed General Manager of The Maybourne Riviera, opening later this summer on the Côte d’Azur, France. The hotel is the first French property of Maybourne Hotel Group, operators of Claridge’s, The Connaught and The Berkeley in London and The Maybourne Beverly Hills in Los Angeles. In his new role, Boris will head up the opening team of this highly anticipated property outside the picturesque town of RoquebruneCap-Martin.

Boris, who studied Hotel Management in his home city of Hamburg, has worked within the Maybourne Hotel Group for the last six years, gaining experience across all the London properties. He began his Maybourne journey at Claridge’s in 2015 as Front of House Manager and was swiftly promoted to Director of Rooms. He then joined The Berkeley as Hotel Manager in 2018, and most recently was Hotel Manager at The Connaught. Before joining Maybourne Hotel Group, Boris was part of the pre-opening team at The Savoy.

Commenting on this appointment, Maybourne Hotel Group co-owner Paddy McKillen said: ‘I am truly delighted that Boris is going to join us on our first French adventure, and I know he will bring our legendary creative spirit and energy to this new member of our Maybourne family, helping build The Maybourne Riviera into one of the greatest hotels in the world.’

‘I am very proud to take on this exciting role, and honoured to be able to call the town of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin my new home’ said Boris. ‘This is truly going to be a ground breaking new hotel on the Riviera and I look forward to leading our dedicated team to deliver the exceptional service and experiences that our hotels are known for.’
