Colessio hotel appoints new director after turnaround

Artemis Hotels Management has promoted Lee Norris to hotel director at Hotel Colessio in Stirling.

Lee’s promotion follows a period of strong performance at the 39-bedroom property, which has recorded profit growth in 2025 after a commercial turnaround under Artemis’ management.

Since joining the business, he has worked closely with founder and director Chris Charalambous to strengthen operational discipline, revenue management and guest experience.

In his new role, Lee will take full responsibility for the hotel’s operational and commercial performance as the business continues to grow.

Lee said: “The progress we have achieved at Colessio has been built on clarity of direction, collective effort, and a shared commitment to high standards. 

“Stepping into the role of hotel director provides an opportunity to continue that momentum, ensuring the hotel remains commercially focused, operationally robust, and firmly embedded within the local business community.”

Chris Charalambous, founder and director of Artemis Hotels Management, added: “Lee’s promotion to hotel director reflects both his commercial acumen and his ability to lead from the front. 

“The turnaround at Colessio is the result of disciplined operational management combined with strong, people-focused leadership. 

“Lee has demonstrated the strategic capability required to drive performance while building a resilient team culture. 

“This promotion recognises that achievement and positions the property strongly for its next phase of growth.”
