Initiated in 2006, the World Luxury Hotel Awards is one of the most reputable annual awards in the field of tourism and resorts in the world, a standard that every hotel and resort is aiming towards. Every year on average, there are up to 300,000 votes for the award from experts, travel agencies and tourists around the world to honour luxury hotels and resorts offering high-end services, creating an imprint for the development of the global travel and service industry.

Putting a stress on the meaning of the award at this time, Mr. Michael Hunter-Smith, CEO of WLHA said that: “The COVID-19 pandemic has had a severe influence on the hotel and resort industry worldwide. We need to develop a concentrated and creative marketing strategy in order to be able to return to the normal state like before the pandemic. We believe that this award will have long-term meaning, helping the winners affirm their position."

Five hotels and resorts, honoured at WLHA Awards this year, once again affirmed their class, outstanding quality and efforts to adapt during the pandemic of Sun Group. Especially, during the pandemic, a new resort named Premier Village Ha Long Bay Resort of Sun Group in Quang Ninh, that has been launched, immediately affirms its position with many reputable international awards, including the award “Top New Resort in Asia” by World Travel Awards 2020, and now the award “Top Luxury Beach Resort in the world” (Luxury Beach Resort - Global Winner) by WLHA 2021.

Not only possessing a collection of high-end hotels and resorts that have been constantly honoured in the international arena, SHG also increasingly affirms its position as the only hotel group in Viet Nam with various leading hotel management partnerships. Most of the hotels and resorts of SHG are now administered by top brands in the world such as AccorHotels, Marriott International, International Hotel Group (IHG), Rosewood Hotel Group, Hilton, etc. This group most recently has also signed a cooperation agreement with The Ascott Limited in managing the super project of Tay Ho View in Ha Noi.

Not only contributing to the domestic tourism and resort industry, the impressive and high-class works, hotels and resorts under the ownership of Sun Hospitality Group also contribute greatly to laying the foundation for the luxury resort industry in Viet Nam and glorifying the country's name with reputable international awards.
