Alex Polizzi stands out as a formidable business influencer in the hospitality sector, her expertise forged in the crucible of a distinguished lineage of hoteliers. Daughter of Countess Olga Polizzi CBE and niece of Sir Rocco Forte, her business acumen is underpinned by a legacy initiated by her grandfather, Lord Forte. Her tenure as the host and speaker on 'The Hotel Inspector' has not only showcased her depth of knowledge but has also extended the prestige of her family name.

Her academic journey began at Oxford University, reading English, but it was her hands-on training at the Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong that laid the foundational stones of her illustrious career. Alex's trajectory through the hospitality ranks is marked by significant milestones, including her collaboration with culinary giant Marco Pierre White at the Criterion and her subsequent positions within the Rocco Forte Hotels worldwide.

The partnership between Alex and her mother at Hotel Tresanton in Cornwall epitomises a dynamic professional alliance, cementing their reputation as leading business management speakers and hotel consultants. Their combined vision and expertise were instrumental in the reinvigoration of the Endsleigh hotel chain, highlighting their capacity to revitalise and lead in the competitive hotel industry.

Alex's leap into television with 'The Hotel Inspector' in 2008 allowed her to transpose her behind-the-scenes prowess into a format that educates and entertains a broader audience. Her continued involvement with the series is a testament to her engaging presence and her profound insight into hotel and brand management. Beyond the screen, Alex's eloquence and wisdom have made her a sought-after after-dinner speaker at corporate events across the globe.

Her influence has also traversed into programming that explores the rich tapestry of hotel, tourism, and culinary worlds, with shows like BBC 2’s 'The Fixer' and Channel 5’s 'Alex Polizzi’s Secret Italy'. Through these ventures, Alex doesn't merely present; she imparts her intimate understanding of branding, customer service, and operational excellence, traits that make her an indispensable figure in business management and a beacon for those aspiring to succeed in the hospitality industry.
