A gold standard for customer service and guest offering has been identified in 32 locations across the Asia Pacific as part of Choice Hotel Asia-Pac Gold Awards.

Held annually,winners of the awards go in the running to also be recognised in Choice Hotels Asia-Pac’s Hotel of The Year Awards – an accolade given across each of the hotel group’s five brands: Ascend Hotel Collection, Clarion, Quality, Comfort and Econo Lodge.

The Hotel of The Year Awards will be announced at the upcoming Choice Hotels Asia-Pac Conference which will be held at the end of February at The Avery rooftop at Crown Entertainment Complex.

The two-day biennial conference will welcome approximately 400 Choice Hotels Asia-Pac franchisees, suppliers and partners and will be hosted by Australian television personality Shelley Craft.

The nominees are judged by a panel from the Choice Hotels Asia-Pac executive team.

Trent Fraser, Chief Executive Officer at Choice Hotels Asia-Pac, said recognising and rewarding the hard-work and dedication of franchisees was imperative in fostering a supportive, collaborative and innovative franchise model.

“We are delighted to announce our Gold Award franchisee winners for 2019 and sincerely congratulate them for consistently demonstrating and striving for an exceptional level of hospitality service throughout the year,” he said.

“It is this dedication that has been paramount to our success throughout 2019 – a year where we have celebrated extraordinary growth and transformation in the region - and we thank our Gold Award franchisees for their tremendous commitment to the business and look forward to what 2020 has in store."

Following the Hotel of The Year Awards announcement in February, Choice Hotels Asia-Pac winners will enter a global stage, vying for the international Franchisee of The Year awards held at Choice Hotels’ Annual Convention in New Orleans in May 2020.
