Tilal Liwa Hotel, a secluded hideaway leisure resort perched on the edge of Rub Al Khalil Desert in Abu Dhabi's Empty Quarter, said it has received the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence award for the third consecutive year.

The accolade, which honours hospitality excellence, is given only to establishments that consistently achieve outstanding traveller reviews on TripAdvisor, and is extended to qualifying businesses worldwide, said the UAE hotel in its statement.  

Earlier this year, Tilal Liwa Hotel received TripAdvisor’s Traveler’s Choice 2014 award on the category for Top Ten Family Destination- UAE.

Ayman Ashor, the general manager, said: "Winning the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for three years in a row is a true source of pride for the entire team at Tilal Liwa Hotel and we’d like to thank all of our visitors who took the time to share their opinions online."

"There is no greater seal of approval than being recognized by our customers and this accolade is a remarkable vote of confidence to our business and our continued commitment to delivering a great family day out for our visitors," he noted.

Marc Charron, the president of TripAdvisor for Business, said: “The Certificate of Excellence award gives top performing establishments around the world the recognition they deserve, based on feedback from those who matter most – their customers."

"From Australia to Zimbabwe, we want to applaud exceptional hospitality businesses for offering TripAdvisor travellers a great customer experience,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
