The Sofitel Athens Airport hotel was recently honored with the 2014 Gold Circle Award from Asia’s leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group, Agoda.com.

The prestigious 2014 Gold Circle Awards are given to accommodations around the world that embody the best qualities of the online hospitality industry. The Sofitel Athens Airport was the only hotel in Greece to receive the 2014 Gold Circle Award.

“In an extremely competitive industry, this award reflects the outstanding level of our commitment to the intersection of cutting-edge technology and world-class service,” said the general manager of Sofitel Athens Airport, Cyril Manguso.

“It is reasonable to feel especially proud, since the presence of Sofitel Athens Airport on the international list of award-winning hotels of Agoda.com, does not only promote the hotel but also Greece.”

Now in its sixth year, the Gold Circle Awards are awarded to properties based on aggregate customer reviews, competitiveness of pricing, utilization of Agoda.com’s custom-built Yield Control System (YCS), and a deep understanding of the complexities of the online booking industry.

“As an established indicator of industry excellence, guests can rest assured knowing that when they see the award displayed in the lobby, they are staying at a highly-rated property at the forefront of the online hospitality industry,” said Errol Cooke, Vice President Global Hotels at Agoda.com.
