Our motto is
'Awards To Guide The Guest Best' - it means winning hotels gain a
very
specific title - something to
helpfully signpost specific qualities
clearly to a prospective guest. We
don't
pigeon-hole hotels into Categories but
do
consider each hotel's strengths, and its people - doing our best to appropriately celebrate, honour and encourage excellence wherever we find it, in all departments. So, Categories are
dynamic as we go through the process. It gives more accuracy.
