Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou at Hangzhou Centre announces the appointment of Daphne Ng as the hotel's General Manager. With nearly two decades of leadership in luxury hospitality and a global perspective honed across Asia’s iconic destinations, Daphne brings outstanding expertise to this landmark property. Her visionary approach to service excellence and commitment to fostering strong team morale will elevate the hotel’s leading position in Hangzhou’s urban luxury hospitality.
Daphne’s journey with Four Seasons began in 2005 as a Concierge Guest Relations Officer at Four Seasons Place Hong Kong, where her passion for hospitality was ignited. Since then, she has risen through senior leadership roles in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Macao, and has contributed her expertise on task force assignments in Beijing, Maldives at Kuda Huraa, Hangzhou at West Lake, and Tianjin.

Small Tip To Landing Good Senior-Level Hotel Management Positions in 2026
Many of our members have remained with us since the inception of our job lead service seven years ago. They continue to renew their memberships, staying on board even after securing new positions, and for good reason.
Daily, our editors dispatch bulletins detailing new job vacancies, projects, and industry shifts, including hotel launches, expansions, strategies, and market trends.
We recognize that numerous long-standing, senior-level members utilize these bulletins as conversation starters, reaching out to hotel chains and potential employers, sometimes with unsolicited applications and messages. LHN endorses such proactive engagement. It's an excellent, informal method to gain early interest from prominent hotel groups and upcoming projects, indicating your interest and broadening your opportunities for intriguing interviews or discussions about potential roles, particularly at the upper echelons of management.
Our editors also keep these proactive efforts in mind, shaping many bulletins to cover "new openings, new projects, and new market developments."
