Club Hotel Dolphin receives coveted HolidayCheck 2013 Award again

Club Hotel Dolphin has been bestowed with the prestigious HolidayCheck Award 2013 for being one of 99 most popular hotels worldwide in the ‘Family’ category in January 2013.

A part of the Serendib Leisure Group, this is the second consecutive year that the hotel has won a ‘HolidayCheck’ award.  The hotel is managed by Serendib Leisure Management, which is a subsidiary of the diversified Hemas Group of Companies.

The HolidayCheck Award is awarded to the 99 most popular hotels worldwide. The winners are decided based on over 780,000 reviews received in 2012. The 99 most popular hotels worldwide are selected based on a formula with three criteria: Number of reviews, Recommendation rate and Suns awarded in each category.

Serendib Leisure Managing Director Ranil de Silva commenting on the accolade said: “We are delighted to be awarded the HolidayCheck 2013 Award for a second consecutive year, and more importantly, to be awarded this accolade under the ‘Family’ category! Being chosen as a recipient of this award reaffirms the uniqueness of our property and our guests recognise us as one of the most sought after family-friendly hotels in the region.”

Club Hotel Dolphin is situated in Waikkal, Negombo, and is easily accessible from Colombo. The Hotel features two swimming pools including the longest swimming pool in south Asia, and offers the widest range of activities on offer in any hotel in Sri Lanka.

Guests at Club Hotel Dolphin can engage in anything from horse-riding to archery, kayaking and beach volleyball in its ‘play’ side. However, the hotel distinguishes itself through its ‘dual personality’ and also boasts of a ‘pause’ side, where guests are equally afforded the luxury of peace and tranquillity in the quiet side of the hotel – where sipping a cocktail by the pool, having a candle-lit dinner or rejuvenating with a relaxing spa treatment is the order of the day.
