CONGRATULATIONS to The Gleneagle Group on winning four gold medals and two supreme awards at Irish Accommodation Services Awards which took place in Wexford last Saturday.

The Gleneagle Hotel, The Brehon, The Travel Inn and The Maritime Hotel in Bantry were all awarded a gold medal for their immaculate standards in housekeeping and accommodation services. The Maritime Hotel in Bantry was awarded the Supreme Award in the four star category while The Gleneagle Hotel was awarded the Supreme Award in the three stay category.

Each hotel was inspected by a member of the Irish Accommodation Services Institute (IASI) adjudication panel in the months leading up to the awards ceremony and the excitement reached fever pitch when all four hotels were named as finalists. All four hotels were then represented by their Accommodation Managers at a swish gala banquet in The Clayton Whites Hotel in Wexford recently. “We are very proud of our entire accommodation team, this is the best result we have achieved at the IASI Awards to date,” says Noreen O’Gorman, Executive Accommodation Manager for The Gleneagle Group. “Our guests expect and deserve the highest standards of cleanliness and we work very hard every day to ensure that this is what they get. To be applauded for this is a fabulous bonus.”

The (IASI) Irish Accommodation Services Institute is a national body representing the professional interests of the accommodation industry throughout Ireland. Its primary role is to promote best practice standards across the accommodation field. It also provides a forum to meet and network with other professionals in this particular field of work.
