Penthouse at The St. Regis Mumbai Appoints Bruno Fuentes as Director of Restaurants

Penthouse at The St. Regis Mumbai has appointed Bruno Fuentes as Director of Restaurants, as the property continues to develop its dining and nightlife portfolio.

Bruno brings over a decade of international experience in food and beverage operations, having worked across Hong Kong, Bangkok and Los Angeles. His background includes roles in restaurant management, guest experience, and commercial strategy within the hospitality sector.

He is a graduate of California State University, Long Beach, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management.

Prior to this appointment, Bruno was associated with Anantara Siam Bangkok, where he led operations at Guilty Bangkok and Aqua Bar. Earlier, he headed Popinjays Rooftop Restaurant & Bar at The Murray, Hong Kong.

In his new role at The St. Regis Mumbai, Bruno will oversee restaurant and bar operations at The Penthouse, focusing on service delivery, guest experience, and operational performance.

Commenting on his move to Mumbai, Bruno Fuentes said, “What excites me most about Mumbai is its incredible energy. It’s a city that blends rich heritage with modern ambition and is constantly evolving. I’ve always admired the warmth of Indian people and I’m excited to experience that every day. I’m equally looking forward to exploring the city’s dynamic food and beverage scene, from iconic local favourites like Vada Pav to the innovative restaurants and bars that are constantly pushing creative boundaries.

Guests may remember what they ate or drank, but they never forget how a place made them feel. For me, it’s about creating an atmosphere where every detail feels considered, every interaction feels genuine and every visit leaves guests wanting to come back.”

He added that his approach to hospitality centres on creating consistent guest experiences through attention to service, atmosphere, and overall engagement.
