Jimmy Watt as Hotel Manager for Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia at Comcast Center, Philadelphia's first-and-only Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Hotel.

Originally from Los Angeles, California, Jimmy brings with him a wealth of experience in the hospitality industry. His Four Seasons journey began in 2013 at Four Seasons Resort Maui, where he started as a Restaurant Manager. Over the next few years, Jimmy took on a variety of roles, eventually becoming Assistant Director of Food and Beverage.

Jimmy’s career then took him internationally, first to Seoul, Korea, where he served as Assistant Director of Food and Beverage, allowing him to immerse himself in both the culture and cuisine of Asia. In 2019, Jimmy moved to Budapest, Hungary, as Director of Food and Beverage, a special experience that connected him to his wife Sarah’s Hungarian roots. He later moved to Madrid in 2022, continuing his food and beverage leadership at Four Seasons Hotel Madrid and helping the hotel earn a prestigious ranking as one of the 50 Best Hotels in the world.

After a brief sabbatical in 2024, where he and his family (including their son Liam and their dog Zsofi) returned to the US, Jimmy helped reopen Four Seasons Hotel New York. He is excited to be part of the Philadelphia team—a city that feels like home, as his father and grandparents were born in Pennsylvania.
