Hotel du Pont begins new era with Greg Kavanagh

PM Hotel Group, operator of the iconic Hotel du Pont, has named Greg Kavanagh as managing director. The downtown Wilmington hotel completed a series of major renovations to its lobby lounge and Green Room bar earlier this year. Kavanagh will oversee the next phase improvements, in new programming to attract luxury travelers.

Prior to his appointment, Kavanagh served as vice president of sales and operations with BridgeStreet Global Hospitality. He has been in the hospitality business for 25 year, including a portfolio of luxury and premium properties for Interstate Hotels and Resorts across the Mid-Atlantic region.

“An experienced sales and marketing executive with a proven track record of developing creative strategies that deliver memorable guest experience while also optimizing revenue and advancing channel expansion and market share, Greg intuitively understands the Managing Director’s impact on the value of a hotel,” says Joseph Bojanowski, president of PM Hotel Group. “Greg’s ability to build winning teams of creative thinkers will allow us to re-imagine the experience that the HOTEL DU PONT delivers at a time when the hospitality industry is redefining modern luxury, while still honoring the hotel’s legacy.”

PM Hotel Group operates a growing portfolio of luxury, lifestyle, full and select-service hotels across 15 states from New York to California.
