Luxury Jersey hotel welcomes new F&B manager


The Atlantic Hotel, a four-star venue in Jersey, has appointed Jaroslav Sedlacek as the new Food & Beverage Manager.

Relocating to Jersey from the Michelin-starred Tudor Room at Great Fosters Hotel in Surrey, Sedlacek brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the role. He holds a Diploma from the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET), giving him a profound knowledge of his subject which he loves to share with guests.

Sedlacek’s passion for food and wine began during the first years of his working life in Australia, where he gained experience in the hospitality industry. A love of travel saw him move across the globe to Toronto where he studied for his international sommelier qualifications, before moving to the UK.

His appointment at The Atlantic Hotel completes the new food and beverage team, where Sedlacek’s expertise will see the planned introduction of wine tasting events, a new cocktail list featuring seasonal ingredients, and further development of the wine list which features more than 500 wines from around the world.

Owner and Managing Director, Patrick Burke said, “We are delighted to welcome Jaroslav to The Atlantic. His experience and expertise together with his passion for the industry make him a fantastic addition to our already strong team. With the imminent launch of the Tasting Room at Ocean Restaurant, 2018 promises to be an exciting year for The Atlantic Hotel.”
