A valued colleague indeed
Nick Muir and I worked together over several years at citizenM Hotels. I found Nick to be personable approachable and above all a consummate professional, who led his team with their best interests at heart and at all times held the citizenM Flag and ethos very high.
He was adaptable to the ever changing Hospitality Market and worked as part of the North American arm of citizenM to identify opportunities, conclude deals and assist in the delivery of some of our most recently opened properties.
I have known Nick Muir for the past nine years
In 2011, when we began the development of a strategic, executive level forum for innovating the
Design, Construction and Engineering of hotels, Nick was an early adopter and enthusiastic supporter.
Nick has been a participant, Board member and true ambassador of HotelPoint since its launch in 2012.
Nick is talented; a critical thinker and skilled in leading design, construction and development.
I find Nick to be open, a great leader, creative and eager to learn; seeking innovation with a creative and
practical lens.
He is highly respected, regarded and enjoyed by his peers, colleagues and partners.
If you have any specific questions that I can answer, please do not hesitate to reach out.
I have had the good fortune to work with Nick in various capacities for nearly a dozen years:
Starting during his tenure at Marriott as Senior Project Director, rolling out Marriott’s highly successful AC hotel brand, continuing during his time
developing a new design direction at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts as their Vice President of Design & Construction, and
most recently as the Head of Project Management/Construction – North America for the forward-thinking citizenM.
His overall knowledge of the hospitality industry, project management, and global construction methodologies is
tremendously broad and deep. He’s been a fantastic professional partner through the years and would quickly add
strength to any hospitality or development organization.
Along with his tremendous professional skillset, Nick is one of those people that makes work fun. He is a team player
with an outwardly positive perspective who knows how to foster a strong working environment that empowers others
to excel.
He is a dedicated and knowledgeable global industry expert and an all-around great person to work with. I am confident
