Jennifer Franklin has been appointed PR & Communications Manager of Park Plaza Westminster Bridge London hotel, overseeing all media communications for the hotel’s forthcoming launch.
Scheduled to open early 2010 on the South Bank, the £350 million hotel will be the largest purpose built hotel to open in London in a generation, featuring more than 1,000 guest rooms and 2,700 square metres of meeting space.
A former news reporter, Franklin was Director of Public Relations for the Fairmont Scottsdale resort from 2005-2009, with previous media relations management roles held with J.W. Marriott, the Travel Industry Association of America (TIA) and the Arizona Office of Tourism. She returned to the UK in 2009 to take up her new role.
Andrew Swindells, General Manager, Park Plaza Westminster Bridge London, said: "Jennifer’s extensive public relations experience gained within the global hotel, travel and tourism industries will be invaluable in delivering a successful communications strategy both pre and post launch, helping build a strong reputation for the hotel.
"Park Plaza Westminster Bridge London will double Park Plaza Hotels’ room count in the capital. Its enviable location, spectacular views of Big Ben and Westminster, alongside first rate facilities are set to establish the hotel as the venue of choice for events, leisure visitors and business travellers."
