Booking.com has unveiled its Booking’s Best Awards as decided by over 40 million recent customer reviews with awards for the tastiest breakfast, an off the beaten track stay or value for money.
Booking.com’s Chief Marketing Officer, Pepijn Rijvers, said: “We know that accommodation can make or break a trip. With the incredible insight gained from the extensive number of guest reviews on our site, we are able to identify what it is that makes an accommodation unique, what adds that extra sparkle to a guest’s stay.”
“We are so proud to work with our Booking’s Best awarded accommodations to give travellers the most unique and incredible experiences. Being called ‘Booking’s Best’ is an indication of quality that can be completely trusted as it comes directly from our verified guest reviews.”
The Booking’s Best Awards enable potential travellers to find the right accommodation with help from the experiences and insights of fellow travellers. In addition to winning spots on the lists, each Booking’s Best accommodation is awarded a badge of distinction which is featured on the property’s individual Booking.com page, as well as being featured on a dedicated Booking’s Best Awards website which lists all the awarded accommodation here.

This selection highlights the diversity of the reviews, which includes Best View, Best Freebies, Best Towel Origami, Best Infinity Pool and Best Cocktails.
