At Roiback we continue to focus on growth and providing the best service to our customers. The closer, the better.
We are pleased to announce the addition of Christos Vitzilaios as Regional Manager in Italy, who will bring his extensive experience in the tourism sector to provide comprehensive support to the team and clients in the region.
With over 16 years of experience in the travel industry, Christos has developed a career that goes back to his roots, having grown up in the hotel environment on the island of Paros, Greece, where his family managed a small resort hotel. Since then, he has worked in five-star resorts and hotels in Greece as Sales Manager, managing corporate and MICE accounts in prestigious chains such as Aldemar Resorts and Royal Olympic Athens.
His professional breakthrough came in 2010, when he joined Booking.com. For a decade, Christos held several key roles, starting as Account Manager and later as Market Team Manager, which allowed him to lead teams in different cities such as Athens, Thessaloniki and Rome. In his last stint at Booking, he managed the Italian market from the capital, consolidating his deep knowledge of the hotel industry and market behavior in Italy.
For the past three years, he has worked as a freelance consultant in Rome, advising hotels in critical areas such as sales, revenue management and customer satisfaction, establishing his reputation as an expert in driving hotel profitability and success.
Christos has been living in Rome for six years and feels he is a "Roman by adoption", having raised his family in the Eternal City, a city that has always fascinated him. He is fluent in five languages and in his spare time he enjoys soccer, geography, road trips and, of course, good food.
On joining Roiback, Christos comments: "I am very happy to be part of Roiback and the HBX family. I believe that the ecosystem of solutions that we propose to hotels is one of the keys to allow them to adapt to market evolutions, while maintaining control over their sales and development strategy.
Christos Vitzilaios ' expertise and innovative approach will be a great added value to continue to bring value to our hotel customers in Italy thanks to our direct channel technology solutions.
