Media Alert: Minister Alan Winde Commends Award-winning Western Cape Hotels

23 May 2013

Three Cape Town hotels have been ranked as the best in Africa according to a leading international travel survey.

Minister for Finance, Economic Development and Tourism, Alan Winde, congratulated the Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa after it was voted the no.1 city hotel for the ‘World’s Best Service' in the category, ‘Top Hotels: Africa and the Middle East' published in the June 2013 issue of Travel and Leisure magazine in the United States of America.

Cape Grace and the One&Only took the second and fourth spots respectively in the survey, in which readers are asked to vote.

"Excellent service is a definitive factor in repeat visits by overseas travellers. I hope these awards serve as an inspiration to the Western Cape hospitality industry to consistently strive for the highest service levels. I am also confident these awards will encourage more international visitors to our world-class destination," said Minister Winde.
