Timothy Bruce has been appointed as the new General Manager for the Grand Hyatt Macau. The announcement was made last Thursday and is effective immediately. The Grand Hyatt is located in the City of Dreams Macau casino resort in Cotai.

Bruce is an executive with global experience. He has been in the hospitality industry for more than 30 years, having held a variety of culinary positions in Australia, Malaysia, Japan, Belgium, Britain and the United Arab Emirates. He began working for the Hyatt company in 1999 as the Food & Beverage Director for Hyatt hotel Canberra in Australia, and has been with them ever since.

After his stint in Australia, Bruce was sent to India, where he was appointed as the GM for the Hyatt Regency Kolkatta. From there, he moved to the Hyatt Regency Delhi, serving in the same role. Most recently, he was tasked with opening the Grand Hyatt Sanya Haitang Bay Resort and Spa in China.

Hyatt’s Cotai property offers 791 guest rooms and 15 multi-purpose areas that cover a total of 26,247 square feet. It occupies two towers of Melco Resorts’ City of Dreams, which just saw the completion of the Morpheus, a $1.1-billion hotel located at the northern end of the property. The Morpheus was designed by the late architect Zaha Hadid and has around 770 hotel rooms, high-end eateries and gaming.
