GlenFront Office
Glen grew up in Sydney, originally studying social work at University; then working as a consultant to NSW Government on community projects.
His love of adventure and meeting new people has taken him all over the world to live in various countries from New Zealand to Asia, Europe to USA and Brazil. He also has travelled a lot within Australia. He has stayed in all types of accommodation from 1 to 5 star luxury and so understands the special quality of lovely places to stay and those who prioritise – the guest experience.
Glen is really one of the family, he has been with Sydney Lodges for over 20 years. His focus is to create a memorable experience where a guest wants to return again and again. He says, that our guests are known to say, “It’s their home away from home”. Glen says “The comfort of hotels and friendliness of staff is something I always look for when I travel, so I always strive to give that in return to our guests … I want to give them the best experience and service I can.”
Eating Out : His favourite food is a toss-up between Italian or Thai, with a glass of wine of course! “My favourite Thai restaurant is Thai Terrific in Hughes Street, Potts Point, this restaurant really is terrific! Also for those who appreciate a good dining experience Macleay Street Bistro is a Potts Point institution that shouldn’t be missed!”
Having worked in the area for so long, Glen, is definitely our go-to-person for everything Potts Point – he knows it all: best food, restaurants, cafes and great specialty shops in ‘a unique village life’.
When not working at Sydney Lodges, you will find Glen wandering furniture stores, fabric houses or perhaps looking through some beautiful books at a library, Glen has an Interior Design business with his partner of 20+ years.
Coffee Order ☕ : As Glen says, “Life is too short for a bad coffee!” He gets his coffee at Anatel, “she makes a great coffee with lovely naughty treats” the bonus is – the cafe is on-site at Springfield, SO VERY convenient!
