For the second year in a row the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace is the recipient of two top awards: for best hotel in Croatia and for best SPA resort in Croatia. The recognition came at the prestigious awards ceremony of the “world tourist Oscar” – the World Travel Awards 2006. The Hotel Dubrovnik Palace is also the first Croatian hotel to be this year nominated in the category for best resort hotel in Europe among stiff competition from 19 luxurious hotels in Spain, Italy, France, Greece and other countries. The nomination of the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace in a European category is in itself an exceptional recognition from the global tourist experts who operate in the frame of the World Travel Awards. The thirteenth gala awards ceremony for achievements in the travel and tourist industry, the World Travel Awards 2006, was held in the luxurious Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort & SPA hotel on the Turks & Caicos islands located southeast of Miami. The tourist industry’s World Travel Awards was established in 1993 with the aim of paying tribute and granting recognition for achievements in all segments of the global tourist sector. After more than a decade of the award’s existence, tourist professionals and their clients today consider it to be the best recommendation any tourist product could have. Voting kicked off on April 18th of 2006 and the decision on the best in each of the categories was made by over 150,000 travel agents, tour operators and buyers from around the world
