Marco Cottone takes over as GM of the Barceló Aran Mantegna. Cottone has been with the Spanish hotel group since 2013, helming managerial positions in various divisions in Italy, including Milan and Rome, as well as in Barcelona and Seville.

New managerial positions in strategic properties

Niccolò Piacenza is now in charge of the Occidental Aurelia. In 2017 Piacenza relocated to Spain, where he advanced his career with various operational positions in Madrid, the Balearic Islands, and the Canary Islands. Returning to Rome he took over as GM of Occidental Aurelia which is in a particularly strategic location near the Vatican City. And Alberto Lopez, who recently relocated from the Canary Islands, is now GM of the Occidental Aran Park Hotel, having worked in operations at hotels and resorts in the Caribbean, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic, among other places. 

“Our commitment and strategic interest is expanding our operations in Italy” 

Leonardo Melro has been appointed commercial director. Melro, who worked for international hotel chains such as Accor, Melia, and Marriott, comes to Italy after Latin America, where he was in charge of developing commercial strategy as well as helming marketing, reservations, proactive sales, and MICE teams.



“The strengthening of our management in Italy demonstrates our commitment and strategic interest in expanding our operations in Italy,” said Cottone, the new GM of  the Barceló Aran Mantegna.
