Hotel reservation software and booking system provider NFS Technology Group applauds South Africa’s prominent hotel and hospitality sector as Awards ceremony is a huge hit over the weekend.

Cape Town was the scene for Saturday’s colossal event, where at the Bay Hotel in SA’s Camps bay area hosted the prestigious award ceremony, one that saw some of the world’s most influential hospitality leaders gather together on the 6^th Dec 2014 for the highly anticipated annual event. Rolling out the red carpet and all the fineries you could expect, the evening was awash with the crème de la crème from the biggest hotel, restaurant and additional hospitality subsectors across the world.

Situated in one of the most prime beachfront locations in the world, let alone Cape Town, The Bay Hotel indeed made the most perfect environments for a lavish spectacle, with South Africa being chosen by popular demand by attending award participants. Described as ‘the Oscars of the hospitality industry’, The World Luxury Hotel Awards are in fact the finest accolade that a hotel could ever receive. In a similar light to gaining a Michelin Star for a restaurant, winning an award places that hotel in a separate league and excitement was most definitely a plenty the other night, with nominees being meticulously judged in over 50 categories within the luxury hotel industry as well as service excellence.

In a statement from the CEO of the World Luxury Hotel Awards, Mr. Brandon Lourens, he said, “with participants from over a record number of 145 countries this year, the event promises to be an exciting offering to international hoteliers, an ideal platform for networking opportunities and exposure”.
