Nominations open for Hotelier Awards 2012

Nominations for the Hotelier Middle East Awards 2012 are now open online at www.hoteliermiddleeast.com/awards.

Now in its eighth year, the Hotelier Middle East Awards seeks to recognise hotel professionals with a record of outstanding performance and an unmatched talent for hospitality.

The Awards comprise 19 categories covering a range of front and back of house roles and are open to hoteliers working in all types of hotels across the Middle East — from budget to luxury.

ITP Business group editor hospitality Louise Oakley said: “Over the years, the Hotelier Middle East Awards have celebrated some exceptionally talented and committed hoteliers. The 2012 Awards will be no exception.

“The nomination process will be open for the next five months, so now is the time to look within your teams, identify the colleagues that most deserve to be celebrated among their peers, and begin drafting their nominations.

“With hundreds of nominations received every year, competition is tough, so I encourage you to start working on your submissions without delay,” she said.

The nomination deadline is August 30, 2012, after which the entries will be shortlisted by the ITP hospitality group before a shortlist of five individuals per category is presented to an independent panel of judges.

Nominations must be made using the form provided online and they should be submitted by a hotel colleague or manager.

The winners will be announced at a glamorous ceremony in Dubai on October 31, 2012.
