This year’s awards were presented at the BGTW Annual Gala Awards Dinner at The Savoy hotel in central London.

The leading Sri Lankan hotel chain partnered the champagne reception on the evening of the celebration to announce its three hotel openings in the Maldives and Sri Lanka by the end of 2019, which started with the opening of Cinnamon Velifushi Maldives on 1 October, Cinnamon’s fourth property in the Maldives.
