The Westin Dragonara Resort won the ‘Europe's Leading Meetings & Conference Resort’ award during the World Travel Awards European regional ceremony.

The award was presented to Michael Kamsky, General Manager at The Westin Dragonara Resort, during the gala night organised to celebrate this accomplishment.

The World Travel awards are hailed as “The Oscars of the Travel Industry” by the Wall Street Journal and recognised worldwide as the ultimate travel accolade.

“Because of its global reach and reputation, World Travel Awards are unique and regularly referred to as the ‘Oscars’ of travel and tourism”, said Graham E. Cooke, Founder and President of World Travel Awards.

Increasingly, the awards are known as raising the bar for ultimate customer service and overall business performance. Growing numbers of travel companies, airlines, operators and resorts compete to walk away with one of the coveted titles.

The Westin Dragonara Resort has hosted numerous conferences ranging from medical, ministerial, pharmaceutical, product launches and IT conferences. The meetings and conference segment is one of great importance for the resort and represents over 30% share of business.
