His previous roles include executive positions at the Corinthia Hotel, London; Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore; Shangri-La’s Mactan Resort and Spa, Cebu; and Shangri-La Hotel, Bangkok.

Cattini possesses diplomas in hospitality management from the Hotel and Catering International Management Association and Como’s Hotel School of Catering, and has completed general manager programs from both Cornell University and Cranfield School of Management.

“We are delighted to promote Mirko to manage one of Rome’s most renowned hotels near the top of the Spanish Steps with its spectacular panorama and authentic Italian charm,” said Christopher Cowdray, chief executive officer of Dorchester Collection, in a press note. “Mirko has proven to be an impactful leader at The Dorchester and we know that his skills and expertise will further enhance the legendary Hotel Eden.”

Commenting on his new role in a press release, Mirko said, “I am looking forward to returning to my home country and leading a team dedicated to elevated experiences in a hotel with such storied heritage and social vibrancy. We will work together to bring many memorable moments to our guests and employees.”
