The Peninsula Bangkok has been named the Best Asian City Hotel in Travel + Leisure’s 2010 World’s Best Awards readers’ survey.
10 Asian hotels placed in the top 100 hotels globally, with the Peninsula Bangkok ranking seventh overall. Elsewhere Singapore Airlines came out on top in the aviation category.
Matt Leppard, editor-in-chief of Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia, said: “The strong showing of Asian properties and destinations is really no surprise.”
“Asia, and particularly Southeast Asia, continues to offer some of the most attractive world-class properties, located in such varied locations as exotic rain forests, vibrant cities, and even on water; with such a choice, Southeast Asia will remain one of the world’s most popular regions.”
