The Thompson Hotel Chicago has appointed Anthony Beach as general manager, who officially joined on August 4.
Beach brings with him more than two decades of hospitality leadership across both upscale and luxury properties. Most recently, he served as general manager for the David Rubenstein Forum & Quadrangle Club at the University of Chicago, part of Pyramid Hospitality Group, overseeing a complex $17 million+ operation which encompassed full-service banquet, catering, restaurant and meeting spaces. He has also led the Sophy in Hyde Park and Hyatt Place Chicago Medical District, where he was honored as Hyatt Select Service Manager of the Year in 2015.
“Anthony’s proven ability to elevate both performance and team engagement makes him a perfect fit for the Thompson Chicago,” said Juan Leyva, senior vice president of Oxford Hotels & Resorts. “We are confident his leadership will bring energy, innovation, and continued commitment to excellence across the hotel.”
Thompson Chicago features 247 guestrooms and interiors by British designer Tara Bernerd & Partners. The hotel boasts views of both Lake Michigan and the city, and is just steps away from Michigan Avenue, boutiques on Oak Street and downtown’s dining and nightlife destinations.
