About this title
Waldorf Hysteria brings together stories that illustrate the theme, A hotel is a funny place . Eccentric guests, bad behaviour, outrageous requests, pampered pets, prying paparazzi, sex, scandal and celebrities it s all here.
With fascinating photographs from the archives, hotel etiquette advice from long ago, and even a few cocktail recipes, this small but stylish book is a celebration of the lighter side of hotels.
For several years Fritz worked for the uniquely Swiss hotel and resort chain Mövenpick, significantly contributing to the opening of two hotels as well as the planning and operation of several restaurants.
In 1975 Fritz became part of the team responsible for planning and opening the Swiss Government financed Kenya Utalii College in Nairobi; still the leading hotel school in Africa. Fritz was the founding General Manager of the prestigious Leisure Lodge Club in Kenya and then for over six years managed the hotels of the German based Severin Hotel Group in Mombasa.
Fritz went on to oversee the final construction and opening of the huge Isis Hotel in Luxor, Egypt. This project presented many challenges, including the significant archaeological discoveries that halted construction several times, as well as the necessity to adapt hotel operations to local cultural beliefs and expectations.
In 1988 Fritz arrived in Sydney and introduced a Swiss style of hotel management training by developing the Blue Mountains Hotel School, now seen as the pinnacle of hotel education within Australia. He is both the Chairman and a founder of the Orion Hotels Schools, consisting of seven highly respected institutions in various parts of the world.
With the publication of Great, Grand & Famous Hotels , Fritz Gubler has added the role of publisher to his list of accomplishments. With further titles in production, the list will grow into a series of fine books reflecting the subjects that Fritz is passionate about.
