Judge and travel journalist Cheryl Chan presents the award for Hotel Restaurant of the Year

Judge and travel journalist Cheryl Chan aka @CherylOffline presents the award for Hotel Restaurant of the Year to The Gritti Palace in Venice on behalf of the Gold Travel Awards.

 

“It was an honour to present the manager Christian with the award. Our UK tourists believed this restaurant deemed worthy of this award and having visited and tried the food myself I too had to agree. If you go you must try the tantalising spaghetti vongole, the views from the restaurant mirror a postcard and the service is friendly and welcoming” says judging panellist and travel journalist Cheryl.

 

Cheryl is the travel editor for the Gold Travel Awards who have also awarded Hotel of the Year to Alcudia Port Suites and Best Hotel for Families to Blu Radisson Gran Canaria Mogan.

 

“Finding the right hotel that meets your expectation be it a kids club or high cleaning standards is hit and miss, I am pleased that these awards are able to shine and light on the hotels that have been a hit with British tourists to help prospective visitors book the hotels that won’t disappoint them” says Cheryl

 

This year the Gold Travel Awards website has received over 6000 entries across 15 awards.

 

“The judging is the most challenging part but we have a team of 5 judges from veteran travel contributors from Lonely Planet to Metro Newspaper. We have debated over who should win what on many occasions where 2 hotels have received equal number of nomination entries but the majority of the time we let the voters decide and we always find then when we visit the hotels that they are always right.” said Cheryl
