Anna Pakulniewicz, ‘Eurobuild Central & Eastern Europe’: The JM Hotel in Warsaw has been acquired by Leonardo Hotels to become the first hotel of the chain in Poland. What is your development strategy for Poland and the region? Paulina Kołodziejczyk, general director, Leonardo Royal Hotel Warsaw: The decision to enter the Polish market was really made at the last minute. Initial negotiations took place in November last year. That was when we decided to take over the JM hotel on ul. Grzybowska. The first quarter of operations was very fruitful. I expected this because I know the Polish market, so I was not afraid of taking up the challenge. However, the Leonardo group has been positively surprised. We have enjoyed much better results compared to other hotels in Central Europe – such as in Berlin, or Prague, where we have had the Nyx hotel for a year, and Budapest.
