The Twelve Apostles Hotel in Cape Town MAJOR LEADING HOTELS OF THE WORLD AWARDS FOR 2005!

RED CARNATION ON THE RED CARPET WE SCOOP MAJOR LEADING HOTELS OF THE WORLD AWARDS FOR 2005!

On 29 October, In New Delhi, India, The Leading Hotels of the World announced the winners of its Fourth Annual Commitment to Quality Awards. And of the ten properties honoured, no less than two were from the Red Carnation international collection of luxury boutique hotels.
These prestigious awards recognise Leading Hotels and Leading Small Hotels in five regions: Africa/Middle East, Asia/Pacific, Europe, Mexico/Caribbean/South America, and the United States of America and Canada. Two hotels, the properties that achieved the highest scores during their most recent Leading Hotels' impartial, anonymous inspections, were named from each of five world regions. RCH hotels were winners in two of those five regions: The Twelve Apostles Hotel & Spa in Cape Town, South Africa, and Hotel d'Angleterre in Geneva, Switzerland.
The Leading Hotels of the World Commitment to Quality Awards are now widely acknowledged as the benchmark for global luxury standards in the hospitality industry. The awards, which objectively measure the hotels from the traveller's perspective, are based on the results of stringent inspections with more than 1,500 criteria, providing the most comprehensive reports in the luxury industry.
Mr Jonathan Raggett, Managing Director of the Red Carnation collection, was understandably delighted. "These awards mean so much to us, because they recognise all the hard work and effort, by every member of staff, that goes into making our hotels so special for our guests. Congratulations and thanks to everyone at both properties, and we look forward to similar results next year."
