Dushu Lake Hotel
is the first five-star conference hotel in the thriving new
commercial, residential and entertainment hub of Suzhou Industrial
Park (SIP). Not far away from the delightful view of Bailu Eco
Park, the modern sports center and the new Christian church, Dushu
Lake welcomes all visitors with a sparkling smile. Standing

comprehensive facilities and high-level service, the hotel is the
first choice for business and leisure guests looking for luxury and

Dushu Lake Hotel
is a joint project between Suzhou Ventures Group and Cold Spring
Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). Founded in 1890 and located at Cold
Spring Harbor on Long Island, USA, CSHL is a private, non-profit
research and education institution at the forefront of molecular

Dushu Lake,
meaning 'single branch' lake, is steeped in legend. Ancient stories
tell the tale of a small branch that fell from the moon to the lake
waters and grew up into a large, single-branch tree. It is believed
that those who can make use of the branch with a content heart will
be blessed with a happy life. Our interview starts from this
beautiful legend.
Overlooking the
sparkling Dushu Lake, the hotel blends traditional Suzhou
architectural and cutting-edge contemporary designs. Embraced in
such an ambience of harmonious fuse of local culture and
international tastes, one could not help wondering who would have
the proper mind and manner to host such a dignified
hotel.
Frank Guo, the
General Manager of Dushu Lake Hotel, is a genteel middle-aged man.
His two assistants, the Resident Manager Jarold Ong and Director of
Sales and Marketing Daniel Yuan are also cultured gentlemen. Mr.
Guo has been devoted to hospitality industry for over 25 years. He
began his hotel management career in 1983 when he joined Jinling
Hotel Nanjing as a reception executive. Ever since then, he worked
as a senior executive staff in Nanjing Institute of Tourism and
Hospitality, joint-venture hotels, state-owned hotels and
international hotels such as Sheraton and Portman. During this
period, Mr. Guo was dispatched to Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne,
Switzerland and Singapore Hotel and Tourism Education College for
further education and was one of the first Chinese to be granted
the CHA and CHE certificates by American Lodging and Hotel
Association. From 2007 to 2009, he set foot in the real estate
industry as the Deputy General Manager of Shanghai Changrun Realty
Company, being in charge of the pre-planning and positioning for
hotels. In April 2009, he was appointed by Suzhou Venture Group as
the General Manager of Dushu Lake Hotel. His rich experience in
hospitality and warmth to guests has been widely acknowledged in
the industry.
Our interview with Mr. Guo fully reflects his managing principle of
'People orientation'. Emphasizing the importance of an outstanding
managing team, Mr. Guo believes that the hotel should employ the
most suitable staff instead of hiring someone with the highest
market price or following the commonly accepted criteria.
Therefore, he does not limit himself to certain recruitment
patterns but invites talents from all areas. During the interview,
we were deeply impressed by his appreciation of talents. He is
familiar with members of the managing team, who all have work
experience in prestigious corporations. The
Resident Manager came from the Four Seasons Hotel, the Director of
Sales and Marketing from Le Meridien She Shan Shanghai, the Chief
Financial Officer from the Marriott Hotel, the Food
& Beverage Manager from Sheraton, the Front Office
Manager from Shangri-la, the Housekeeping Manager and two Head
Chefs both from internationally famous hotels. In a word, Mr. Guo
leads an elite team, which has rich experiences and acute market
sense and is capable of providing five-star services with a good
and healthy image. Strict with his team, Mr. Guo is satisfied and
confident with his soldiers while all his soldiers express the same
trust. The excellent teamwork is
self-evident.
Mr. Guo's managing
principle also influences his service philosophy. The top managing
team pursues perpetual provision of innovative feelings to
customers, which is mainly reflected in the food and beverage
service. During the preparation for the hotel opening, Mr. Guo and
his team, after heated discussion, decided on the theme of Huaiyang
Cuisine. Besides classical dishes, the hotel develops novel dishes
regularly and offers special dishes with seasonal fresh materials.
In order to grasp the latest trends, the hotel studies and
assimilates the local food culture to create the most satisfying
food and beverage for guests. Just as the Resident Manager Jarold
Ong said, 'Changing and changing' is to satisfy hotel guests'
tastes and needs. To transcend the self through continuous changing
is the new concept of Mr. Guo's team.
To shape a unique
hotel culture, Mr. Guo has taken advantage of the special local
resources, blending foreign elements with traditional culture to
form an integral modern style. According to his plan, the newly
constructed Christian Church in the vicinity will be connected to
the hotel with a bridge to highlight wedding ceremonies. The hotel
features 20 ballrooms with meeting functions, two of which are
1000-square-meter Grand Ballrooms to host banquets and meetings at
the same time. Weddings are also welcomed. The peaceful lake,
garden scenery, classical architecture and modern designs compose a
fascinating picture of history, contemporary and future for the
newly weds. The nature-friendly environment gives expression to the
hotel's features of 'human orientation' and 'individualization',
which renders a more humane flavor to Dushu Lake Hotel.
'Human
orientation 'is not only a service philosophy but also a staff
management philosophy. Facing competition from other major hotels,
Mr. Guo has a profound understanding of advantages of domestic
brands. Local managers, being more familiar with the local market,
customs and consumption habits, are able to provide better
services. Therefore, Mr. Guo tries his best to improve employees'
sense of belonging and contentment through good management and
planning in order to bring advantages of domestic brands into full
play.
As the
southeastern gate of Jiangsu Province and the backyard of Shanghai,
Suzhou always values the market in Shanghai. With 2010 Expo
approaching, Dushu Lake has fully prepared itself for this once a
lifetime opportunity. The Director of Sales and Marketing Mr. Yuan
said that many important clients are based in Shanghai. Hence the
Sales and Marketing Department would schedule one or two weeks
every month to visit clients in Shanghai with an expectation of
attracting more conference curators and large corporations in
Shanghai to hold meetings in Suzhou. In fact, the number of hotels
in Shanghai with large meeting facilities is limited. Since the
need for meetings during the Expo will be high, Dushu Lake Hotel
could provide a relaxing and leisure business environment for
corporations in Shanghai.
Years' devotion to
hospitality has enabled Mr. Guo to possess a penetrating and
perceptive insight into hospitality and service industry. With a
common passion for the industry, he and his team have marched along
with concerted efforts. Undoubtedly their remarkable professional
skills and commitment will lead Dushu Lake Hotel to its perfection
and add a colorful stroke to Suzhou.
