Ten Indian hotels named amongst the world's favourite
Announcement / Corporate September 29, 2009, 20:09 IST

Ten Indian hotels have made it to this year’s annual global Expedia® Insiders' Select list of the world’s favourite hotels with The Oberoi Grand in Kolkata claiming top spot among the favourite Indian hotels featured.  The other Indian hotels on this year’s list include The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra; The Oberoi, Mumbai; Shangri-La Hotel, New Delhi and Lemon Tree Amarante Beach Resort, Goa. 

Chateau Beauvallon, near the town of Mont-Tremblant in Quebec, Canada was named the world’s favourite hotel.

Now in its third year, the annual Expedia Insiders’ Select list represents the extensive range of hotel types offered by Expedia globally and those that have been recognised by Expedia travellers for consistently delivering excellent service, a great overall experience and providing notable value. The list represents an easy-to-browse directory of the top 1,000 of over 100,000 hotel properties globally offered by Expedia and is comprised of hotels ranging from boutique to chain properties in a variety of destinations.

With more people booking travel on Expedia sites than any other online travel company in the world, the Expedia Insiders’ Select list was compiled using a combination of hundreds of thousands of Traveler Opinions® from Expedia customers. This was combined with insights from Expedia’s own network of hundreds of experts worldwide, systematically comparing hotels and resorts to similar properties to determine the best value for money.

Expedia is home to more traveller reviews than any other online travel company, with Traveler Opinions available on the Expedia.co.in Indian site as well.

Arthur Hoffman, Managing Director, Expedia Asia Pacific, says: “The fact that ten Indian hotels have their presence on this year’s Insiders’ Select list confirms our belief that India offers world-class accommodation and shows that international travellers are impressed by both the quality and value of the accommodation they find in India.”

“Capturing the experiences of hundreds of thousands of hotel guests to select the world's favourite hotels based on value, service and customer ratings, Expedia’s Insiders’ Select provides Indian travellers with yet another option to browse and select from our extensive range of hotels to make the best choice,” he said.

Mr. Hoffman said that when booking their trips, and as part of their overall research, Indians should consult reviews posted online from other travellers. “Independent traveller reviews provide invaluable insights and suggestions, and help travellers to make the best choices and to maximise their overall travel experience,” he concluded.
