Michael Specking, Hilton Prague General Manager, said:
“I am honored that Hilton Prague has been repeatedly recognized. A full renovation of our almost 800 rooms is nearly complete, and our flexible 5,000 m2 of meeting and convention space, bright atrium lobby, three restaurants, two bars, and 2,000 m2 of leisure facilities offer group guests all the amenities they look for when attending events. Add to this our hotel’s central location and most importantly, a great team focused on delivering high standards of service. Hilton Prague is the real creative metropolis with everything under one roof and is the right choice for inspired events of all kinds.”
“Cvent congratulates Hilton Prague on this recognition as a leading hotel for meetings and events,” said Chris McAndrews, Vice President of Marketing for the Cvent Hospitality Cloud. “The venues featured on this year’s list continue to elevate their MICE business through innovative marketing tactics and dedicated efforts to meet the needs of the thousands of event planners using the Cvent Supplier Network every day to select their venues.”
The award-winning Hilton Prague is a centrally located business hotel just a few steps from the heart of the charming Czech capital. Set in a bright and contemporary design space, its 791 guestrooms, which will be fully renovated until the end of 2019, and 5,000 sqm of flexible convention and banquet space annually host over 500 events of all types and sizes, catering for more than 70,000 delegates. The passionately hospitable hotel team uses proven processes and a personalized approach to deliver extraordinary experiences for groups ranging in size from 10 to 2,000 participants.
Cvent evaluated hotel properties that generated business through the Cvent Supplier Network from January 2018 through December 2018. The properties were ranked according to various criteria, including total requests for proposals (RFPs), awarded RFPs, total room nights, awarded room nights, and major metropolitan area (MMA) market share, conversion rate, response rate, and the hotel’s unique profile visits in the Cvent Supplier Network. The criteria are designed to provide the most accurate reflection of the top meeting hotels in the US, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia-Pacific regions.
The first three places are all for Hilton Hotels: Hilton London Metropole is in second place, and DoubleTree by Hilton Amsterdam Centraal Station is in third place.
