The winners of the World Boutique Hotel Awards 2016 were announced last week at the glittering Awards ceremony held at the Merchant Taylors’ Hall, London.
The ceremony brought together an array of boutique hotel owners, travel and lifestyle press and travel industry influencers from all four corners of the world, including representatives from CNN Travel, Elite Traveler, The Telegraph, Spear’s Magazine, Boat International, Time Out, The Financial Times and hoteliers around the world.
The World Boutique Hotel Awards is the first and only international awards organisation exclusively dedicated to recognising unique excellence among boutique hotels. The Awards, now in its 6th year, honoured the people behind these outstanding properties.
The event also brought together members of The Master Key Society with the announcement of a new collaborative venture, that aims to create valuable relationships exclusively among the Award Winners by facilitating hotel exchange visits between them.
