Top spot for Galgorm Resort & Spa

The awards, held at Titanic Belfast, saw Galgorm Resort & Spa beat competition from rivals including The Europa and The Fitzwilliam Hotel to take home the ‘Best Hotel of the Year 2012’ award.

The award, sponsored by W&G Baird, was presented to Galgorm Resort & Spa at a star-studded ceremony at Titanic Belfast. The event was hosted by comedian and Celebrity Juice favourite Rufus Hound and featured a stunning performance from X Factor star Mischa B.

Speaking after collecting the award, Galgorm Resort & Spa Sales Executive Victoria Brown said: “We’re delighted to have won this prestigious award and we’re incredibly proud to have been chosen as Northern Ireland’s top hotel.”

Yvonne Smyth, General Manager at Galgorm Resort & Spa, added: “The award win marks a fantastic few months for the Resort & Spa. We’re in the final stages of a multimillion pound investment programme and will proudly display our GO award in Fratelli, our new Italian restaurant which opens at the Resort this weekend.”

The GO Awards are decided by public vote, with over 25,000 people casting their votes to crown winners across 14 categories, including ‘Hotel of the Year’.

The award win is the latest highlight for the Resort & Spa in what’s shaping up to be an extremely successful and exciting year for the Ballymena hotel. The Resort is in the final stages of completing a £2.5 million investment programme and is currently featuring on national TV thanks to head chef Chris Bell’s participation on Great British Menu, shown on BBC2 NI from Monday 30th April - Friday 4th May at 6.30pm.
