Preferred Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest independent hotel brand, has earned the prestigious distinction of being named the number one “Most Excellent” large hotel chain in the world by TripAdvisor.
For its first-ever “Most Excellent” awards, TripAdvisor selected the winners based on which brands have the highest percentage of Certificate of Excellence recipients globally for 2018. With 532 distinctive properties within its global brand portfolio boasting this prominent seal, Preferred Hotels & Resorts made the top of the list in the “large hotel chains” category (>500 hotels).
Discovery Primea, Discovery Shores Boracay and Discovery Suites are all a part of the Preferred Hotels and Resorts portfolio, in the L.V.X, Lifestyle and Connect Collections respectively. All three were among the 532 member hotels receiving the prominent TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence seal in 2018, which brought Preferred Hotels & Resorts to the top of the list in the “large hotel chains” category (>500 hotels).
