One World Hotel was named the best convention hotel in Malaysia with a five-star status and best convention hotel in Asia Pacific at the recent Asia Pacific Hotel Awards. It became the first hotel in Malaysia to have received these two prestigious awards.
In November, One World Hotel will compete against other winning hotels from Europe, Africa, America and Middle-East for a chance to be named the World’s Best Convention Hotel at the International Hotel Awards at a gala event in London. “My team and I are indeed honoured to receive the awards,” said One World Hotel general manager Ho Hoy Sum.

“To be voted the best convention hotel in Malaysia was indeed a wonderful recognition but clinching the title of best convention hotel in Asia Pacific at the same time was gratifying. “Our team, especially the Conventions & Events and Banquet Departments, have been working very hard in offering superlative services to our guests. These awards are indeed a testament to their hard work and dedication.
“To be able to represent Malaysia and the Asia Pacific Region on a worldwide stage in London in November will be one of the hotel’s greatest successes,” he said. “Nevertheless, we will not rest on our laurels but will continue to strive harder to maintain an excellent product and ensure that guests receive only the very best from us.”

The Asia Pacific Hotel Awards, in association with HSBC Bank Malaysia Berhad, is a hotly contested competition, which includes categories for specific types and sizes of hotel. The best hotels, hotel architecture, interiors, construction and design across the entire Asia Pacific region were celebrated at the recent awards ceremony held in Kuala Lumpur.
These awards, combined with the other regional hotel awards’ programmes for the Middle-East, Europe, Africa and America, form the globally renowned International Hotel Awards. Judging was carried out through a meticulous process involving a panel of over 20 experts covering every aspect of the hospitality business. Top scoring winners of five-star awards will then proceed to be re-judged against those from the other regions to determine the world’s best winners.
