Hospitality Sectors Represented

How Jordan participation divides across hospitality sectors. Sectors are assigned from two fields in the official award records only — the award programme a record was filed under and the industry classification recorded against it. Restaurant, Spa & Beauty and 5 Star Hotel programme records take their programme's sector; World GM Awards records are 'Hospitality Leadership' when the manager's organisation carries a hospitality industry classification; International Travel Awards records are limited on this site to hotel and resort entrants. Nothing is inferred from an organisation's name.

Frequently Asked Questions

This page combines nominee and winner records from five separate award programmes organised by Golden Tree Events LLC: International Travel Awards, International Spa & Beauty Awards, International Restaurant Awards, World GM Awards and World 5 Star Hotel Awards. Records from Jordan currently appear in 5 of them (International Travel Awards, International Restaurant Awards, World GM Awards, International Spa & Beauty Awards and World 5 Star Hotel Awards). Each recognition is shown with the programme that issued it — Hospitality Awards itself does not judge or present any award.

Yes. Hotels and resorts in Jordan can enter the International Travel Awards, and hotels operating at five-star standard can also enter the World 5 Star Hotel Awards.

For the 2026 season, nominations close on 15 October 2026, the jury review runs from 20 September to 20 October 2026, winners are confirmed and notified privately between 3 and 30 October 2026, and winners are revealed at the gala on 14 November 2026 at the Westin Marina Hotel, Dubai, UAE.

A record is listed as a winner only when an official winning category is recorded against it for a specific award year; payment, attendance or a nomination plan plays no part. Sectors are assigned from two fields in the official award records only — the award programme a record was filed under and the industry classification recorded against it. Restaurant, Spa & Beauty and 5 Star Hotel programme records take their programme's sector; World GM Awards records are 'Hospitality Leadership' when the manager's organisation carries a hospitality industry classification; International Travel Awards records are limited on this site to hotel and resort entrants. Nothing is inferred from an organisation's name. City and destination fields are not populated for these records in the official award records, so no city breakdown is shown. 1 identical duplicate submissions (same organisation, programme, year and category) are shown once in the listings; the record totals above count every official record.Winner descriptions are shown only when verified against the winner's own website; nothing is written to fill gaps. No e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, plans, fees or payment details are published.
