With more than a decade of expertise in curating guest experiences, Ashok Nair is a consummate hotelier with a measured and balanced approach to his roles.

Always enthusiastic and inquisitive - traits he says he has picked up from his son - Ashok is constantly looking to add to the experience a guest can have. “I love observing guests immerse in the simple joys of life and rediscover the child within. It’s worth all the effort that goes into curating experiences,” he smiles.

Prior to joining Four Seasons, Ashok managed a diverse portfolio at the Taj Hotels, Resorts & Palaces, including the illustrious Taj Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad, India. Starting out in learning and development and then later as Palace Services Manager, Ashok built a reputation for crafting unique tours and experiences and played a vital role as the Palace was named among the final four of Virtuoso’s Hotel of the Year 2014.

Known as a "people’s person," Ashok is focused on quality training and empowering colleagues who are at the forefront. “The critical aspect, I believe, is to take care of the team with the same genuineness as we expect them to take care of our guests,” he shares.

For Ashok, to be able to curate personalised journeys of wellbeing with varying expectations, preferences and sensitivities, is a challenge he loves.
