CIS Excellence Award 2010 - 27 May 2010
The Isle of Eriska Hotel was delighted to be named the Independent Hotel of the Year 2010 at the
CIS Excellence Awards 2010 at the Hilton Hotel in Glasgow.
Eriska named in Final of CIS Awards as Hotel of the Year - 01 May 2010
This morning we received the wonderful official news that Eriska has been shortlisted as one of the finalists in the Catering in Scotland Excellence awards as the Hotel of the Year. we were both thrilled and excited to have been rewarded in this way and especially when we looked down the respected list of judges who chose us from a wonderful wide range of entrants. Simply reaching this stage is true recognition of all the hard work those around me continually put in in their endeavours to look after our guests and visitors.
Whilst achieving success with guidebooks and journalists it is the achievement of being recognised amongst ones peers which means most to everyone in the team and they are all rightly proud. After insuring we survive by looking after our guests being singled out by others in the industry takes a close second place and I know as soon as I had told the team here the jungle drums were beating letting all their friends know of the success. At the end of the day you can operate the best located greatest building with all the trappings of success but without the heartbeat of the team within it you will never survive and this award recognises their input
Last year we were very privileged to have reached this stage also but were pipped to the post on the final day. We will now have to keep our fingers crossed and hope that we can go one better on 27th May when the winner will be announced.
