A Leadership Move Rooted in Vision

Hospitality today is no longer just about a comfortable stay—it’s about immersive experiences, and food plays a starring role. With this promotion, Fairmont is reinforcing its commitment to delivering world-class dining experiences across both Fairmont Mumbai and the upcoming Roswyn, A Morgans Originals Hotel.

His approach is simple yet powerful:

  • Enhancing service efficiency across all outlets
  • Developing high-performing teams through structured training
  • Creating themed dining experiences and bespoke events

This is not just about food—it’s about storytelling through cuisine, where every dish reflects a sense of place and identity.

A Strong Culinary Team Driving the Vision

Supporting this ambitious direction is a powerhouse leadership team, including:

  • Mihir Kane as Director of Culinary
  • Deepak Shetty as Executive Sous Chef

Together, they form a cohesive unit dedicated to redefining Mumbai’s luxury dining scene—bringing innovation, consistency, and creativity under one unified vision.

Backed by a Global Hospitality Giant

With the strength of Accor’s global network of over 5,600 hotels, Fairmont Mumbai is positioned to blend international excellence with local authenticity.
