Most Innovative Guest Experience
01
Remarkable guest experiences don’t just happen – they require the hard work and innovation of forward-thinking hoteliers and industry-leading technology. That’s where you come in.
This award recognizes those setting a new standard of guest experiences, consistently going above expectations. So, tell us how you and your team are crafting memorable stays. For a change, we’re not just looking for data: share your stories about how guests get an experience like no other, from personalized services to unique offerings.

Most Innovative Staff Experience
02
Does your team love turning up to work every day? This award is for those who are redefining what it means to be a hotelier, moving away from button-pushing processes to a fully engaged workforce.
Tell us how your innovative approach to staffing and operations fosters a motivated team. We’re looking for creative thinking that empowers people to provide remarkable hospitality, all of which likely leads to higher staff satisfaction scores, boosted efficiency and lower staff turnover.

The Trailblazer Award
03
This one’s for the pace setters. We’re looking for new-to-Mews properties that have truly embraced the benefits of a cloud-native hospitality, adapting in rapid time to new systems and processes.
Tell us about the exceptional speed of your rollout, innovative training approaches and swift product adoption. Whether through Mews University, partner technology or custom training programs, showcase how your team is setting a new standard for hospitality transformation.

Tech Team of the Year
04
Behind every great hotelier is technology that empowers them. Scoping, implementing and using this technology is the role of product, IT and system specialists, and this award is for those teams doing exceptional work.
We want to know if your team plays a vital role in shaping the industry with groundbreaking tech, driving business success and inspiring others. This could cover guest experiences, optimizing operations or driving revenue – anything that helps you stay ahead in the fast-changing hospitality landscape.
