The theme for the Hotelier Middle East Awards 2016 is now official: ‘Old Hollywood Glamour’. The theme is suitably fitting for the “Oscars of the Middle East” for the hospitality industry. The night is set to glitter with a red carpet and walk of fame, as we celebrate the stars of ‘Hotelierwood’.
All entries for this year’s awards need to relate to achievements during the 12 months ending August 2016, and entries in the ‘people’ categories must be supported by up to five customer and colleague testimonials. The deadline for nominations is 11.59pm on Wednesday, August 31. After this date, submissions will no longer be accepted.
Nominations are only valid when made through Survey Monkey using the links provided on the awards website — nominations in any other format will not be accepted by the editorial team.

The nominations will be judged by a jury of industry peers — who will be announced in the next issue of Hotelier Middle East.
As nominations are now open, we present another handy guide, on filling in your entries. Good luck!
Tips for entering
Think quality
The Hotelier Middle East Awards 2016 invites nominations from individuals and companies across 17 categories. But don’t employ a scattergun approach. No matter how big an organisation, it will be stronger in some fields than others; and the same can be said of its employees.
With this in mind, take a selective approach to nominations. Choose categories that best represent the key strengths and achievements of your company or nominated individual. It’s better to submit five nominations that play to your key strengths rather than enter every category in a haphazard manner.
