The criteria used for this global assessment include design, quality, service, innovation, originality and a commitment to sustainability. Of all the candidates put forward for the 2017-2018 edition of the awards, the Iberostar Grand Portals Nous received the prize for Best Sustainable Hotel and also received ‘International Five Star Standard’ status in recognition of its first class quality and a guarantee for its superb standards of quality and service.
