Nominations are now open for individuals and businesses across the hospitality industry in Australasia, New Zealand and South Pacific to put forward their best and brightest stars for recognition at the 2020 HM Awards, presented by Sealy Posturepedic.

Hundreds of nominees will contest over three-dozen categories in 2020, with individual gongs honouring the best performing Hotel Chef, Bartender, Restaurant, Concierge and many more.

Hotel awards recognising the best in each market segment will be awarded, as will recognition for hotels displaying excellent Service to the Community, Tech Innovation, MICE capability, among others.

The 2020 HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence are being presented by Sealy Posturepedic, co-hosted by ahs hospitality, Intrust Super, Torrens University and the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School.

Nominations will close at 5pm on Monday, October 12, with all submissions to be carefully assessed and finalists announced in late October.
