For the second consecutive year, Rocco Forte’s Villa Kennedy has been voted the best European business hotel by CNBC European Business magazine. The Frankfurt hotel has only been open for 18 months, but has already established itself as a mainstay for both business and leisure travellers, as well as proving hugely popular with the locals.
Villa Kennedy took the top spot despite strong competition from Claridge’s in London and the Georges V in Paris, and was joined on the list by another Rocco Forte property, Hotel de Rome in Berlin. In particular, the magazine remarked on Hotel de Rome’s “top-quality” service, rooms, comfort, facilities and the “terrific” meeting rooms and spa.
Writing about Villa Kennedy, CNBC noted that the hotel was “an immaculate architectural recreation of a Wilhelmine German villa that changes one’s otherwise dismal perception of Frankfurt as a business destination.”
Described by The Rocco Forte Collection’s Director of Design Olga Polizzi as “the ultimate business hotel”, Villa Kennedy has drawn high praise and plenty of accolades since its opening in March 2006. It won the prestigious Hotel & Tourism award at the MIPIM trade show in Cannes in 2006 and was also voted Best Business Hotel in Frankfurt by EURO magazine last year. The CNBC European Business award is further testament to The Rocco Forte Collection’s dedication to providing world-class service and luxury facilities for the modern business traveller.
CNBC European Business, now in its third year, has established itself as one of the most pre-eminent business magazines in Europe, with a circulation of over 100,000.
