Originally from Sydney, taking on the role of General Manager at 25hours Hotel The Olympia, Jake Guilfoyle makes a return to his roots and brings with him over a decade of experience in luxury lifestyle hotels across Australia and Southeast Asia. Most recently Guilfoyle supported the rebranding and opening of Hyde Melbourne Place, cementing the hotel deep within Ennismore and Hyde brand standards.
Working as General Manager of Operations, Guilfoyle spearheaded the launch of QT Singapore at 90 % occupancy and achieved record guest satisfaction at QT Gold Coast. His career also spans leadership roles at QT Sydney, QT Falls Creek, and Rydges Cronulla, delivering outstanding commercial results while building strong high-performing teams.
Sylvain Pasdeloup commented: “Jake embodies the spirit of 25hours – bold, creative and deeply connected to community. His track record of launching and elevating lifestyle hotels is impressive, and I’m looking forward to seeing him bring that energy to our first Australian venue. With Jake at the helm, 25hours Hotel The Olympia will be more than a hotel – it will be a cultural hub for travellers and the neighbourhood.”
