fiogf49gjkf0d InternContinental Hotels and Restaurants bagged 22 awards at 2014 World Travel Awards (WTA) Asia and Australasia, which took place in New Delhi recently. The brand, which is part of the InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), one of the world’s leading hotel companies, was also recognised as Asia’s leading luxury business hotel brand for the first time.
The brand also took home the award for Asia’s leading business hotel brand for the third consecutive year and the award for Australasia’s leading hotel brand for the third time. InterContinental properties in Asia, Australasia and the Pacific also claimed a plethora of wins as top hotels and resorts in their respective countries.
Bruce Ryde, director, brand management, InterContinental Hotels and Resorts, said, “To have won 22 awards at this year’s WTA is testament to our commitment as a brand to provide guests with exceptional and authentic experiences when they stay at InterContinental Hotels and Resorts.
“More than half of the awards won are repeat wins, and this shows the consistent quality of our properties and shows us that as a team we are on the right track and staying true to our core brand values,” he added.
The WTA was launched in 1993 to acknowledge excellence in the travel and tourism industry, and is now in its twenty-first year. Heralded as the travel industry's equivalent to the Oscars by The Wall Street Journal, the awards are decided based on votes by the public and travel professionals worldwide.
“With InterContinental Hotels and Resorts making up over a third of IHG’s pipeline in Asia, the Middle-East and Africa, we are confident that we would continue to deliver more award winning properties in this exciting and diverse region,” said Ryde.
