  • PRESS RELEASE

Al Manzil Hotel, operated by the award-winning Southern Sun hospitality chain, has recently received two highly coveted travel industry accolades, based on direct customer reviews of millions of travellers from around the globe.

The first accolade has resulted in Al Manzil Hotel being voted the Top Business Hotel in Dubai in the TripAdvisor Business Popularity Index, rated by over 20 million travellers from around the world on the popular global travel review and research website.

In addition to this honour, Al Manzil Hotel has been named an Expedia Insider's Select hotel - an annual award granted by one of the world's most reputed online travel agencies, which identifies the world's top hotel properties based on the experiences of Expedia's customers. The Expedia Insider's Select program includes just one percent of all hotels offered on Expedia. Al Manzil Hotel was identified as consistently delivering superior services, an exceptional guest experience as well as good value. It is notable that, out of 292 hotel properties, only four other Dubai hotels received this award.

Richard Weilers, Managing Director, Southern Sun, says the hotel is honoured to receive this recognition:
"Receiving these prestigious awards is incredibly rewarding, as they reinforce Southern Sun's position as Africa's leading hotel brand. The accolade received from Expedia places Al Manzil Hotel within the top 1% of hotels in terms of consistent and outstanding customer service and further endorses Southern Sun's position as a global hotel brand. We are pleased to represent Emaar as the owners of the Al Manzil property and we are immensely proud to have cultivated these compliments to their magnificent developments in the Downtown Burj Dubai district."


The two awards both recognize Al Manzil Hotel's superior facilities and excellent service standards. Al Manzil Hotel has unrivalled business facilities including three fully equipped meeting rooms and a boardroom, as well as a business centre that is open 24 hours a day to meet the requirements of a successful globe-trotting executive, presenting the perfect fusion of traditional and modern.

Al Manzil Hotel's food and beverage choices offer a variety of delightful dining options, including Conservatory - an all day dining restaurant; The Courtyard, an authentic Arabic restaurant; along with Mokaroma, and Nezesaussi Grill. The hotel offers complimentary Wi-fi access, secretarial services, and meeting facilities including banqueting and meetings rooms for small groups. In addition, on-site parking is complimentary. With this attention to detail, there is little wonder Al Manzil Hotel has secured the top spot in the TripAdvisor Business Popularity Index for Dubai while also receiving endorsement in the form of hundreds of thousands of hotel reviews submitted by Expedia's travellers.

As an Expedia Insider's Select winner, Al Manzil Hotel is granted a special award designation on the agency's search result page and the description of the hotel on Expedia's global websites. The hotel has also received a special commemorative plaque to celebrate this achievement.
