Worldhotels is an exclusive collection of the world's most unique independent hotels. Under the banner "Unique Hotels for Unique People", it now has almost 500 affiliate properties in more than 250 destinations and 65 countries worldwide.
For nearly 40 years, the company's mission has been to offer business and leisure travellers easy access to a wide range of accommodation options with a strong emphasis on hotels of character and distinction.
Worldhotels' guests benefit from an extensive portfolio of partnerships, including frequent flyer programmes from 24of the world's leading international airlines, including Air France/KLM, United Airlines, Cathay Pacific and Lufthansa.
Through state-of-the-art distribution and technology and global marketing campaigns, Worldhotels gives independent hotels the collective strength of a strong, global hotel brand whilst still allowing them to retain their strong individual character and unique identity.
Today more than ever, travellers like to choose an independent hotel that offers a taste of the country they’re visiting. They want something better than the anonymous treatment of a hotel chain where everyone gets the same. The hoteliers within the Worldhotels portfolio create hotels with their own personal soul and touch. Each hotel has something special.
At Worldhotels we understand that your travel requirements are as unique as you are. For this reason, we categorize our distinctive hotels into two collections: Deluxe or First Class. Each collection is tailored to the requirements of today's global traveller, making it easy for customers to find exactly the kind of accommodation they are seeking.
We aim to be the the world’s leading group of prestigious unique hotels, by providing the best reservations technology and distribution network while relentlessly pursuing perfection. Through consistently understanding our customers' needs and meeting - and even exceeding - their expectations, we strive to position Worldhotels as the preferred branding for hotel representation and choice of accommodation.
We will constantly strive to achieve the highest level of quality given the existing environment to add value and enhance the competitiveness of our partners. We will also continue to develop superior technology and services to ensure sustainable competitive advantages for our continuous growth and profitability.
At Worldhotels, we will hire the right people who share our values of diversity, integrity, investment in people, teamwork and growth. We are committed to helping them achieve their full potential through education, training and skills development in a work environment that rewards achievement, enthusiasm and team spirit.
Worldhotels is a dynamic and innovative group with a collection of 500 unique hotels in 250 destinations, across 65 countries – each following a commitment to excellence and reliability.
Choices: Our sales activities, marketing programmes and strategic partnerships have been built to create demand across different markets and business segments for all of our hotels, all over the world and to serve our hotelier’s requirements.
People: Our success is not only driven by the energy, talent and passion of our Team Members around the world, but also by the clients they serve. Our Worldhotels Team Members are always willing to go the “extra mile” to make our clients succeed.
Access: Our sales and reservations offices are in 30 locations around the world, providing travellers and travel professionals with the help they need, when they need it and in various languages.
Quality: Our portfolio stands for individuality and quality. Each of our unique hotels offers an abundance of local charm, combined with the high quality standards Worldhotels requires for affiliation.
Today's independent travellers naturally seek out a unique accommodation experience, demanding character, local flavour and world-class services.
Uniqueness, Reliability and Excellence are the hallmarks of Worldhotels. We place strong emphasis on properties with character and distinction. Each of our unique hotels offers an abundance of local charm, combined with the rigorous quality standards that we require for membership.
The Worldhotels Performing Excellence Programme
Before being granted affiliation to the Worldhotels network, each applicant hotel undergoes a rigorous series of tests. Room amenities and hotel facilities must meet the demanding standards for the relevant Worldhotels collection: Deluxe or First Class. Food and beverage facilities must be professional, hygienic and of a suitably high standard. The hotel itself must reflect the Worldhotels emphasis on character and distinction.
And because Worldhotels understands that the real pleasure of travel is found among the people one encounters, we ensure that hotel staff are suitably trained and share our commitment to providing a unique and positive accommodation experience.
Our agents regularly visit affiliate hotels to ensure that our high quality standards are consistently maintained.
