TripAdvisor, the world’s largest travel site, recently announced the winners of the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards 2013.
Cinnamon Lodge Habarana was ranked the second best hotel in Sri Lanka, as a result of its continuous positive reviews on TripAdvisor, which have been posted by their valuable guests after having completed their stay at the hotel.
TripAdvisor serves as a platform for guests around the world to provide feedback and reviews based on their experiences at various hotels and resorts worldwide. It provides valuable and real time reviews and experiences of travellers and a wide variety of travel choices and planning features. It has also become a powerful tool in persuading guest decisions on where they would like to spend their next vacation, influencing the consumer decision making process. “Once again, TripAdvisor is thrilled to recognise the finest accommodations based on the feedback from those who really matter: their guests,” said Barbara Messing, Chief Marketing Officer for TripAdvisor. “It’s the insights from millions of travellers that make these awards so special, as they help others discover the hotels travellers love most – whatever the budget, in all corners of the world.”
Unlike any other hotel honours, TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice winners are based on millions of valuable reviews and opinions covering more than 650,000 hotels and collected in a single year from travellers around the world.
Cinnamon Lodge Habarana has repeatedly received positive reviews from guests around the world, depicting it as a ‘seventh heaven,’ ‘a perfect base for discovering the cultural triangle,’ ‘excellent, well appointed and spacious,’ appreciating the unique aspects of Cinnamon Lodge Habarana, which makes it the ideal holiday destination.“In order to win this award, a hotel needs to maintain a record of continuous positive reviews on the hotel based on guest experience. This is as a result of the untiring efforts of the staff and management of Cinnamon Lodge Habarana, whose vision is to exceed guest expectations through unsurpassed service with a view to make guest stay memorable one,” said Cinnamon Lodge Habarana General Manager Ghazzali Mohideen.
Its sister properties, Chaaya Village Habarana and Bentota Beach Hotel, have also been ranked amongst the top 25 hotels in Sri Lanka by TripAdvisor.
