TripAdvisor announces the best British hotels

20th January 2010, 10:03am

TripAdvisor, the online travel community, has announced that Yorkshire's Rudding Park Hotel is the best in Britain while also ranking in the World's Top Ten Luxury hotels.

Simon Mackaness, chairman of Rudding Park, said: "This is a phenomenal achievement and I am delighted that Rudding Park is favoured so highly among our guests.

"To be voted number one in the UK and to be rated number six among the world's best hotels is an accomplishment we have aspired to since purchasing Rudding Park 30 years ago. When creating our development strategy, we have always strived to provide the best service and guest care possible. I would like to thank everyone who has helped to bring Rudding Park such astounding recognition."

The awards recognise the best hotels in the world across categories including Best Bargain, Best Service, Best Luxury and Best B&B.

London's Soho Hotel has been voted the best hotel in London by travellers from around the world. One traveller review sums up why, "a fabulous hotel, staff and experience". 

The Bermondsey Square Hotel comes in at number five in Europe's Most Trendy Hotel list.

Despite these wins the TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards expose a worry for the capital. Not a single London hotel makes it into the UK Top 25 Ranking.

Alison Copus, VP Marketing Europe for TripAdvisor said: "With the Olympics just two years away it's worrying not to see a single London hotel in the Top 25 UK list. Come 2012 all eyes will be on our capital city and London hotels are clearly going to have to raise their game to make sure they provide world-class accommodation."
