“I am extremely proud to be receiving this award for the hotel the second time, it is a recognition again for the consistent quality and service that we offer.”

says Hotel General Manager Daniel Kaan. “All our teams go to great lengths to ensure the satisfaction of each and every guest and we take pride in exceeding guest’s expectations on a day to day basis.”

The final list of winners was put through as nominated by 1.5 million airport hotel guests. The criteria included facilities and fitness, quality of food, cleanliness, leisure, comfort and accessibility to the airport, amongst other.
