Sofitel London Heathrow is immensely proud to announce that it has been awarded Best Airport Hotel by readers of Business Traveller. Between April and July this year, readers of Business Traveller were simply asked, what is the Best Airport Hotel in the World based on their experience over the previous 12 months and clearly Sofitel London Heathrow was top of mind.
The hotel industry is navigating through immense difficulties during these unprecedented times and to receive such an accolade at the moment is very welcome and has strengthened the Hotel’s desire to continue to be the best it can be and create memorable experiences for all guests.
Ryan Nicholls, General Manager of Sofitel London Heathrow said, “It is a fantastic achievement to be recognized as the top Airport Hotel in the World. I have always had full confidence in my team and the hotel but for this to be endorsed by both guests and people associated with business travel is fantastic. I want to take this opportunity to thank all my team and everyone involved with delivering the Sofitel London Heathrow experience and we look forward to continue to welcome our guests with the highest standards they have become accustomed to.”

On behalf of our readers we therefore congratulate and thank the Sofitel London Heathrow and the Arora Group for all they have done to keep our readers and their most frequent customers happy.”
