One of the reasons we were looking forward to staying at the Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires was the opportunity to meet up again with Tulio Hochkoeppler the newly appointed General Manager of the Hotel.
Most recently, we had met him as the General Manager of the award winning Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa where he was also responsible for the company’s superyacht hotel the Four Seasons Explorer.
We wrote about both in a superyacht destination feature for Invictus magazine
Tulio a 19-year veteran of Four Seasons Hotels and Resort group is no stranger to Argentina, he was the Hotel’s Director of Rooms 12 years ago, and also worked at sister property Four Seasons Resort Carmelo in Uruguay.
“I am so excited to return to Buenos Aires and reunite with many friends who I worked with years ago,” says Hochkoeppler, who speaks fluent Spanish. “The team has worked so hard over the past year to completely reinvent the Hotel as the new hot spot in Buenos Aires, and it will be my pleasure to take Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires into the next chapter in its storied history.”
A graduate of the prestigious Cornell University hospitality program in New York state, Hochkoeppler began his Four Seasons career in 1995 in New York City before moving back to his hometown of Los Angeles, California.
By 2002, he was part of the team that raised the flag of Four Seasons in Buenos Aires for the first time as the Hotel was converted from another brand.
It was during this time that he became engaged to his now wife Dianna, and they travelled the world together as he took positions in Miami, San Francisco and the Maldives where we met him last.
Always nice to meet up with old friends around the world
