UNWTO has joined Qatar Tourism to recognize the individuals and businesses leading the way in building a better sector in the country.

The inaugural Qatar Tourism Awards, developed in partnership with UNWTO, focused on three principal categories: Service Excellence, Cultural Experiences, and Smart Solutions. At the awards ceremony, Qatar Tourism Awards also announced a surprise category, the Community Contribution Award, to recognize individual community members who have gone above and beyond to display hospitality and provide exemplary services to visitors.

The winners were announced at a ceremony that took place at Raffles Doha, attended by Basmah Al-Mayman, Regional Director for the Middle East at UNTWO, and His Excellency Saad Bin Ali Al Kharji, Chairman of Qatar Tourism. The winners reflected the broad and diverse nature of the tourism sector, including destinations, experiences, hotels, and hospitality establishments. They also recognized those leading the way in building more innovative and sustainable tourism, in line with UNWTO's key priorities for the sector.

The full list of all the winners can be found on the Qatar Tourism Awards website.
