ORLANDO
Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI), which serves the North American meetings and incentive market with its Global Sales responsibilities for more than 160 Four- and Five-Diamond quality member hotels and resorts worldwide, has presented Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando with its prestigious “Chairman’s Award” as the “ALHI Hotel of the Year” for 2014.
According to ALHI, the award is presented annually to the member hotel or resort that best displays exemplary leadership and commitment to performance in the preceding year, while epitomizing exceptional property-level teamwork and cohesion with ALHI’s Global Sales Organization (GSO) team in serving the meetings industry.
The award was announced at ALHI’s Industry Advisory Council conference, which was recently held at the “new” Hotel del Coronado in Coronado (San Diego), California.
The AAA Four Diamond, 1,501-room Rosen Shingle Creek is located in Orlando at 9939 Universal Blvd., just off the International Drive tourist district and one of the closest convention hotels to the Orlando International Airport, just 10 minutes away. The hotel features 490,000 gross square feet of meeting and event space, including one of the world's largest column-free ballrooms at 95,000 square feet. Most recently, the hotel earned Meetings Focus magazine’s very own 2014 "Best of the South" award, which was determined based on a poll of the magazine's readership, consisting of meeting planners across the nation.
ALHI, which features 20 Global Sales Offices throughout North America, provides authorized and dedicated Global Sales services and sales support to corporations, associations, independent planners, business executives, and incentive specialists interested in conducting meetings or programs at its Member hotels and resorts.
