Why I voted JW MARRIOTT
JW Marriott usurped last year’s winner Hilton to claim the Best Business Hotel Brand in North America award. Marriott achieved strong global growth in 2016, and particularly in North America, where its pipeline accounts for 36 per cent of rooms under construction and 14 per cent of total keys available. In another victory for Marriott, the JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach was also chosen as the Best New Business Hotel in Asia-Pacific.
