Recognized as one of the most prestigious events on the luxury hospitality calendar, the Haute Grandeur Global Awards is an independent and unbiased initiative to honour excellent achievements in the hotel industry from a global perspective. Initiated in 2014, it recognizes exceptional contributions by outstanding hotels. The results are based on quality feedback from guests, rather than the quantity of vote. Each year, top luxury hospitality brands vie for the ultimate accolade in overall excellence. Only the best of the best is recognized for exceptional achievements and greatest contribution to the industry.

“The hospitality industry is highly competitive. Only those who constantly exceed attain prestige,” says Haute Grandeur Founder and President, Marinique de Wet. “Healthy competition is essential to inspire excellence because it ensures sustainability in the most prosperous industries – those that create jobs globally. Association with Haute Grandeur guarantees participating establishments status and distinction. We are proud to contribute to raising the standards of excellence in hospitality worldwide.”
Haute Grandeur Global Awards are recognized as a guaranteed golden stamp of excellence, with associated establishments perceived as the benchmark in the industry. By awarding only the most remarkable, Haute Grandeur inspires exceptional hotels, spas and restaurants to achieve even greater heights.
