Following the completion of our 30 million Euro investment, the Best Western Academy Plaza Hotel has recently been awarded the prestigious Best Western PREMIER status. The PREMIER brand is Best Western's elite section and recognition of a number of extra facilities and services offered by the hotel compared to other hotels in the core brand. The significance of the award can be highlighted by the fact that only 103 of the 4000 Best Western hotels worldwide have achieved this status! Two amazing restaurants await Sir Harry's Bistro and our award winning ABACUS Asian cuisine, for your dining pleasure.
