Gursoy joins the hotel team with more than 20 years of sales and hotel experience. He most recently served as director of sales at the Chicago Convention & Tourism Bureau, a position he held for the last seven years. Prior to that, Gursoy was director of sales at the Fairmont Hotel in Washington, D.C. and director of group sales at Swissotel Chicago. Additional posts include senior positions at the Four Seasons Hotel, Philadelphia and the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Philadelphia. He studied Business Administration at the University of Memphis.
The hotel opened late last year, and marked the debut of the Radisson Blu brand in North America.
