UK's Top 50 Boutique Hotels list revealed
Hotels including Hambleton Hall in Oakham; Lime Wood Hotel in Lyndhurst; Ockenden Manor in West Sussex; and The Gunton Arms in Norwich are among 50 boutique hotels to have been chosen following extensive voting from experts across the sector, from operators to travel writers, industry experts to influencers.
The Top 50 Boutique Hotels, sponsored by Taylor’s of Harrogate, will be announced at a ceremony in York on 25 November at The Star Inn the City where they will be ranked according to the votes, with one being crowned the UK’s Best Boutique Hotel.
“We are absolutely delighted to be revealing this list and adding to our Top 50 portfolio. We’ve established the lists as the places to watch for excellence, and we look forward to shining a spotlight on the best in the boutique hotel sector now,” says Ed Bedington, editor of The MA, which is organising the awards.
“Demand for high-end, great experiences is something we’re seeing across all of hospitality, and accommodation is no exception. Now with the Top 50 Boutique Hotels adding to the group, you can find the best places to eat, drink and sleep across the country.”
The Top 50 Boutique Hotels builds on the success of the Top 50 Gastropubs and Cocktail Bars brands and will provide the UK with definitive breakdown of where to eat, drink and sleep.
The full list will be available on a new Boutique Hotels website after the event where users can find their nearest hotel and search for other Top 50 establishments nearby at which to eat and drink.
