Fee / Cost

Simple, Transparent Pricing

Merit-based recognition across four global hospitality programmes — with a fee structure that never influences the result.

Fee & Costs

Two Fees, Clearly Explained

There are two distinct fees in your participation journey across all four Hospitality Awards programmes: one to enter and be considered, and one that confirmed winners may order afterwards.

⚖️

Paying never guarantees winning. Every result is decided by the independent jury on merit. Fees cover participation, administration and winner materials — never the outcome.

📝

Nomination Fee — Step 1

Required to participate and be evaluated by the jury of your chosen programme.

  • Access to the official awards portal
  • Entry into your chosen category and programme
  • Assessment by the independent jury
  • Does not guarantee winning
🏆

Winner Package Fee — Step 2

For confirmed winners only, ordered after results.

  • Trophies, plaques, medals & certificates
  • Gala passes & feature coverage
  • Award title, logo & name usage rights
  • Ordering never influences selection

Full transparency: nomination fees are non-refundable and valid for the same-year programme only. Winner packages are entirely optional and only relevant once you have been confirmed as a winner.
