The Best in China Recognised in Awards

The Chinese tourism industry continues to grow and surpass all expectations. The TTG China Travel Awards is one of the most prestigious travel awards platform in celebrating and honouring China’s travel and tourism industry. The Awards came back for the fourth year this year and applaud exemplary industry partners that strive to maintain quality standards to ensure a stellar experience for all. The 60 Awards given in 2011 were voted by fellow tourism industry colleagues.

It is a pity that that most of the awards were only available to the older well known tourist cities of Eastern China, and only 6 given to other regions in China. The awards would be improved if equal prominence was given to all regions and cities in China. For example, why was there not a category for the Best Meeting and Conventions Hotel in Kunming, which has a world class International Convention & Exhibition Center?

Glance down this list of worthy winners, and please feel welcome to forward a short article to this web site about any hotel you have stayed in and share your experience with other readers.
