Fun Facts

We asked Tanya:

Where is your favourite hotel in the world and why?

My favourite hotel in the world is The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas. It offers breathtaking views of the Las Vegas skyline and stands out as a truly unique hotel. From its stylish décor to hidden restaurants, it has so much to explore under one roof. Whether you’re seeking luxury, fun, or a bit of both, The Cosmopolitan delivers an unforgettable experience with its blend of modern elegance and vibrant energy.

What’s your favourite country in the world and why?

My favourite country is the USA, and Orlando, Florida holds a special place in my heart. I went there for my honeymoon, which made the trip even more memorable. Orlando offers a perfect mix of excitement and romance, with magical experiences like Disney World, but also plenty of spots to relax and unwind. It’s a place that combines adventure, fun, and sentimental value for me, I even went back the following year.

What is your greatest achievement?

My greatest achievement was becoming the Director of Finance for a group of hotels with a combined turnover of £100M, all by the age of 30. The journey demanded immense dedication and sacrifice, but it was truly rewarding. It’s an accomplishment I take great pride in, both professionally and personally.
