Alexandra Polizzi (born 1972) is an hotelier and the presenter of the 4th and 5th series of Five's The Hotel Inspector, taking over from Ruth Watson.
Polizzi comes from a long line of hoteliers, her grandfather being Lord Forte. Her mother, the hotel designer Olga Polizzi, is Lord Forte's daughter and the sister of Sir Rocco Forte. Her father was Count Alessandro Polizzi, an Italian marquess, who died in a racing-car accident in 1980.[1]
Polizzi read English at Oxford, trained at the Mandarin Oriental in Hong Kong, and worked for Marco Pierre White before working in the family business at Rocco Forte hotels in Cardiff, Rome and St Petersburg. Falling in love with a baker, she started her own wholesale bakery, supplying bread to Selfridges, Harvey Nichols and Fortnum & Mason.[2]
She owns the Hotel Endsleigh in Milton Abbot, near Tavistock in Devon.
Polizzi is married to Marcus Miller and has a daughter from a previous marriage.
