4 December 2020
The "101 best hotels in Germany" have been determined. The rating, which will take place annually in the future, was launched under the leadership of the Institute for Service and Leadership Excellence as the sponsor. Partner of the concept is, among others, Carsten K. Rath, from CKR Hospitality Consulting. "Being included in this ranking is a great honour for all placed hotels and I congratulate the 101 Champions very warmly," commented Rath, adding, "Our evaluation shows that the quality of the German hotel industry is exceptionally high. In my opinion, the best stand out due to an individual character, love for the guest and employees who are remembered. With this ranking, we will contribute to a competition in the hotel industry here, from which the guests will ultimately benefit." We present the top 3 of the best hotels in Germany here.
