BOSTON
Hyatt Regency Boston announced Terry Dunbar as its new general manager, who is responsible for all aspects of the hotel's sales, marketing, finance, human resources and operations.
Dunbar joins the Hyatt Regency Boston with extensive experience in the hospitality industry and 26 years with Hyatt, most recently at Hyatt Regency Jersey City, where he served as general manager for the past four years.
"After spending four great years at Hyatt Regency Jersey City, both professionally and personally, I look forward to this new and exciting challenge leading the [Hyatt Regency Boston] and its team forward," said Dunbar.
Dunbar started his Hyatt career at the Park Hyatt Washington. He worked his way up in various roles and eventually served as the general manager of Stanhope Park Hyatt, Hyatt Regency Suites Atlanta, Hyatt Fair Lakes, Hyatt Regency Long Island and Hyatt Regency Jersey City.
He was nominated for Hyatt's general manager of the year honor in 2003 and 2012. He has also been associated with Hyatt Regency Reston and Grand Hyatt Washington DC.
Prior to joining Hyatt, Dunbar owned and operated a 48-room hotel in Edgeworthstown in Longford, Ireland, and Percy French Hotel in Strokestown, Ireland.
Originally from Dublin, Ireland, this is somewhat of a homecoming having originally arrived to Boston 26 years ago. Dunbar graduated from the Regional College of Galway earning a higher diploma in Hotels and Catering Management.
With a passion for enhancing partnership and relationships through the city, Dunbar looks forward to building community relations in Boston. Dunbar is an avid cyclist and runner.
The 502-room Hyatt Regency Boston offers 30,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, including a 5,046-square-foot ballroom and adjoining terrace.
Other amenities include 24-hour in-room dining, a business center and a fitness center, featuring indoor swimming, eucalyptus steam room, sauna and therapeutic massage services.
