The superior five-star Corinthia Grand Hotel Royal has been voted ‘Best Luxury’ hotel in Budapest, Hungary, and among the ‘Best Service Europe Top 20’ and ‘Best Hotels in the Top 25 World Cities’ in the leading TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice awards 2009.
Winners for the 2009 awards were determined by a combination of TripAdvisor's Popularity Index and traveller ratings of specific attributes. TripAdvisor's Popularity Index is a system that determines traveller satisfaction based on a variety of sources, including TripAdvisor hotel reviews and travel articles and opinions from across the web. The hotel review process also allows travellers to ‘grade’ hotels based on a variety of attributes, including cleanliness, value and suitability for specific types of travellers. The Travellers' Choice awards, the only honours representing the unbiased opinions of millions of travellers, are among the most coveted awards in the global hotel industry.
“We are absolutely delighted with the result” said CHI Hotels & Resorts’ CEO and Managing Director Tony Potter.
“This jewel of a hotel has been collecting accolades ever since it opened its doors in 2002, when it immediately won Europe’s ‘Best Hotel Architecture Award’ and later the International ‘Five-Star Diamond Award’ for its commitment to excellence in luxury amenities and top quality services."
