"The owners, general managers and employees of these hotels should be proud to receive recognition of such a great accomplishment," said Stephen P. Joyce, president and chief executive officer for Choice Hotels. "This selection of elite properties truly represent the strongest, most dedicated, most consistent performers among the thousands of hotels within our global system."
The Inn of the Year winners are selected in part by reviewing each property's guest satisfaction scores, which are calculated using the results of surveys that are emailed to hotel guests within three days of their checkout. Selection of the award-winning properties, also based on Quality Assurance Review scores, is ultimately determined by the Choice Hotels Owners Council, the Econo Lodge Franchise Association and the Rodeway Owners Association, with collaboration from Choice Hotels among a selection of the company's brands.
