#143 — Daniela Simic-Gül — MEININGER Hotels, Berlin
from HOTEL-PODCAST GERMANY Hosted by HOTEL-PODCAST.COM
Yes, you heard right: Daniela Simic-Gül has been part of MEININGER Hotels for an incredible 24 years. Her journey began in a Berlin hotel, where she met the future founders during her training. Shortly after, a completely new hotel concept emerged on Meininger Street – innovative, bold, and ahead of its time. The vision of that time has more than been fulfilled: Today, MEININGER Hotels are active all over Europe. In Berlin alone, Daniela is responsible for six properties. What were the early years like? And why did the later sale of the company present a particular challenge for her and many colleagues? With nearly 1,300 employees from over 90 nations, MEININGER Hotels today not only bring together different generations of guests but also the whole world under one roof. But how much has really changed over the years? Or has the company culture remained the same at its core despite growth and transformation? One thing is clear: At the MEININGER Hotel Berlin Mitte Humboldthaus, progress continues. Not least because the Downstairs Comedy Club, with Felix Lobrecht, brings excitement every day. Hats off to you, Daniela – for your impressive journey and for passing on your experience with such dedication to the next generation in the hospitality industry. The industry needs role models like you.
