The Monarch Dubai, the five star luxury hotel located at One Sheikh Zayed Road, was last night crowned 'World's Leading Luxury Business Hotel', and its exclusive Monarch Suite named 'World's Leading Suite' at the prestigious World Travel Awards 2009, held at Grosvenor House Hotel in London.

The World Travel Awards, established 16 years ago, encourage travel and tourism organisations to set new boundaries for customer service, value and innovation to create the ultimate hospitality experience. Winners are decided by votes received from thousands of agents and travel professionals from around the world.

The Monarch Dubai emerged victorious from 3,600 nominees, marking the culmination of a year-long quest to find the best travel brands in the world. The hotel has consistently delighted visitors with its impeccable service standards and a wide range of amenities including luxurious accommodation in the 236 rooms, suites and serviced residences, delectable cuisine in each of the six restaurants and lounges, sophisticated conference facilities, a lavishly appointed Health Club and the world-leading Mandara Spa.

The Monarch Suite was named the 'World's Leading Suite' for the second consecutive time at the awards, highlighting the hotel's unique and exclusive luxury offering.

Said a delighted Mr Henning Fries, General Manager, The Monarch Dubai:

"We are deeply honored to have been recognized by the travel fraternity worldwide in this way, a major accomplishment considering we are only in our second year of operation."

These awards demonstrate our ability to deliver unrivaled hospitality on the global stage, and we look forward to welcoming new customers from around the world to experience our award winning offering."
