Dubai: All-suite property, The Merchant House Bahrain, scooped the accolade for the Boutique Hotel at the Leaders in Hospitality Awards 2019 by Hotel & Catering News Middle East.
The Merchant House, Bahrain’s first boutique hotel to receive a five-star rating, came out on top of their category at the recent Leaders in Hospitality Awards, in an enviable line-up of properties which included The Chedi Muscat, Atana Musandam Resort, Mysk Al Mouj by Shaza hotel Muscat and Shada Executive hotel Jeddah. The announcement was made at the fifth annual Leaders In Hospitality Award ceremony on April 25, where some of the region’s most prestigious hospitality honours were presented.
A unique hotel, with just 46 suites located in Manama’s old town, The Merchant House was nominated in two categories including the Leading Hotel Interior Category, with its stunning interiors courtesy of acclaimed designer and hotelier Gordon Campbell Gray.
Accepting the award, Justin Kim, General Manager of The Merchant House said: “Our team is thrilled with the accolade. This was always going to be a special place, remarkable, unmistakable, both in its design and the experience when staying with us. It also helps to solidify Campbell Gray Hotels’ philosophy that more and more guests these days are looking for something a little different when they check into a hotel.”
This is the second award for The Merchant House this month with the hotel, which made its debut in February 2019, also winning the Luxury Boutique Hotel of the Year at the LTG Africa and Middle East Awards 2019. The Luxury Travel Guide Awards celebrate the very best accommodation providers in the most sought-after destinations throughout the region.
The level of space, comfort and convenience at The Merchant House ensures a special experience for each and every one of its guests, with each of the beautifully-designed stylish suites featuring an open-plan sitting, kitchen and dining area, as well as a sizeable bedroom.
Its location next to the bustling Bab Al Bahrain souk, a short distance from the capital’s diplomatic quarter and financial district, makes the property ideal for both business and leisure travellers.
With its warm welcome, striking aesthetics, world-class art collection, impressive library and the spectacular rooftop restaurant and garden, The Merchant House – part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World – is the jewel in the crown of Bahrain’s hotel scene.
