Double Honours for Pan Pacific Hotels Group as “Best Regional Hotel Chain”, As it Poise for Future Growth with its Recent Brand Refresh
The Group is voted in twice this year as the best hotel chain in Asia Pacific by the readers of leading trade publications, TTG Asia and Travel Weekly Asia
Pan Pacific Hotels Group has clinched "Best Regional Hotel Chain" at the annual Travel Weekly Asia's Readers' Choice Awards held on 15th October. This follows the Group's earlier win of "Best Regional Hotel Chain" at the annual TTG Travel Awards held on 20th September.

Held in Bangkok on 20th September, the 29th TTG Travel Awards has been recognising the best of Asia-Pacific's travel industry since 1989. This year, the TTG Travel Awards honoured 84 winners across four categories: Travel Supplier, Travel Agency, Outstanding Achievement and Travel Hall of Fame. As one of the most coveted and influential awards in the travel industry, winning "Best Regional Hotel Chain" at the TTG Travel Awards has propelled Pan Pacific Hotels Group to the frontline of the best in the regional travel industry.

Pan Pacific Hotels Group clinched the "Best Regional Hotel Chain" award for the second consecutive year, a reassuring vote of confidence from its guests and partners towards excellence in product and service from a hospitality company.

These prestigious awards are a culmination of our intentional efforts to emphasise sincerity in everything we do, along with our brand refresh journey. We are humbled yet proud to be standing amongst the finest in Asia-Pacific's travel industry. These recognitions are especially meaningful as they provide a boost of confidence to our associates, to know that we are trusted and preferred by our valued guests, partners and industry friends."
