Reporting to Bhardwaj and bringing over six years of experience to the role, Haddad will manage the front office department at Raffles Dubai.

Commenting on both appointments, Ayman Gharib, general manager at Raffles Dubai, said: “We are very pleased to welcome Sumit and Kevin to Raffles Dubai, they will both fulfil important roles in delivering the exceptional warm and thoughtful service that our guests value.
