The prestigious World Travel Award was presented to the Mövenpick Hotel Istanbul - it is one of the most important of its kind in the travel and hospitality industry.

"This Award is a great honour for us, and for the team as a whole it is an acknowledgement of their constant strive for excellence to continually  improve and respond to our discerning business travellers' wishes," explains Frank Reichenbach, General Manager of Mövenpick Hotel Istanbul and Regional Manager for Turkey.
