Singapore, October 2016 – Worldhotels received official recognition in the presence of travel industry professionals, as the proud recipient of the Best Independent Hotel Brand during the 2016 TTG Travel Awards ceremony. Held on Thursday 29 September, in Bangkok, Thailand, the 27th Annual TTG Award ceremony saw hospitality aces and veterans converge and celebrate the travel industry's biggest and brightest stars of the year.
The award was voted solely by individuals from the hospitality and travel industry ranging from travel consultants, tour operators to destination management companies. Adding on the fact that TTG Asia is a well and long established publication in the region, gives even more significance and weight to this prestigious accolade.
“The entire Worldhotels team is proud and honoured to have received this commendation and acknowledgement both now and five years ago, when we first won the same award in 2011,” says Roland Jegge, Executive Vice President Worldhotels Asia Pacific. “Knowing that the award was bestowed upon by our fellow industry comrades makes it even all the more special and is a true testament to my team's hard work, effort and perseverance throughout the years.”
The 2016 TTG Awards was held in the same week as Incentive Travel & Conventions, Meetings Asia (IT&CMA) and Corporate Travel World (CTW) Asia-Pacific, the world's only double bill event in MICE and corporate travel, organised by TTG Events, a business group of TTG Asia.
