September 23, 2014 - Radisson Blu Warwick Hotel, Philadelphia today announced the appointment of Jean-Marc Jalbert as general manager. Jalbert will oversee all staff operations, ensuring that all facets of the 301-room historic property exceed guest expectations.

Jalbert's experience in the hospitality industry as a general manager and food and beverage director has taken him from France to England, throughout United States, and the Caribbean over the past 30 years. No stranger to the upper-upscale service guests expect from the Radisson Blu brand, Jalbert was most recently general manager at the Radisson Blu Resort, Marina & Spa in St. Martin. After receiving his hotel management degree from Lycee Hotelier Paul Valery de Menton, he worked at the five-star, five-diamond Chateau Hotel outside of Paris, solidifying his experience in the luxury segment and honing his skills in the food and beverage arena. He also held food and beverage director positions at the Sofitel in Houston and Turnberry Isle Resort & Club in Florida. Jalbert's first general manager position was at Grove Isle Resort & Club in Miami.
