A VIDEO on The Table Bay Hotel’s Covid-19 protocols has picked up two awards at the International Tourism Film Festival Africa, and the hotel has received a British Airways Holidays Customer Excellence Award.
The British Airways Customer Excellence Award is presented annually to top-rated hotels, based entirely on the feedback they receive from guests. The Table Bay hotel received an overall score of 9.3 out of 10. “This year we are giving out nearly 475 awards, which means The Table Bay has ranked within the top 4% of our highest-rated hotels for 2020,” said Claire Bentley, managing director of British Airways Holidays, which gathered nearly 24000 independent reviews last year.
The ITFFA international jury awarded the film, which was produced by Cape Town documentary studio Good Work Pictures, a gold award in the accommodation category in the Tourism Promotion section, and a silver award in accommodation in the Tourism Services Sector.
“With 865 entries from 97 countries, of which a quarter were African, competition was fierce. As Covid 19 caused numerous logistical challenges, it made sense to combine the Afro-centric version of our event with the international one this year,” said Caroline Ungersbock, co-founder and director of the ITFFA.
“We look forward to welcoming more guests back to The Table Bay as vaccination programmes roll out in South Africa and the rest of the world,” Selby said.
