Following a record 1850 entries, the nominees have been announced for the 2024 HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence, the 23rd annual event, presented by Sealy Posturepedic.
Like our event last year, due to the high number of entries, the judging continues for all of the categories in the 2024 HM Awards and there will be no separate list of finalists announced, with the highly commended recipients and winners to be revealed at our gala awards presentation dinners in Auckland and Sydney in November.
This year, all-new Aotearoa and Fiji categories will make their debut and the winners of these categories – plus the Aotearoa, Fiji and South Pacific winners of the people awards – will be handed out at a black-tie gala ceremony on Friday, November 1 at Cordis Auckland, for which there are a limited number of tickets available.

The winners of the Australian property awards and all of the Major Awards (listed below) will be handed out at a black-tie gala ceremony on Friday, November 29 at ICC Sydney.
In 2024, close to 60 HM Awards will be handed out, recognising excellence over a range of categories covering people and departments to properties and chains.
HM Awards Founder, Chief Judge and HM Editor-In-Chief, James Wilkinson, said the caliber of entries this year have been has been nothing short of spectacular, with so many leading people, departments and properties being nominated.
“I’m thrilled with the entries we have seen this year,” he said. “I’m particularly proud our Rising Star of the Year has been our most popular category again and this year we have had over 100 entries, the first time any category has reached that milestone in the 23-year history of the event.
“I’m proud the HM Awards, Australasia’s leading and only independent hotel awards, will again recognise some of the most amazing talent across the region.
“The entries in 2024 have been phenomenal and from the best concierges to boutique hotels, chefs and regional properties, the HM Awards once again has seen submissions from some incredible properties and people from right across Australia, Aotearoa and the South Pacific,” he said.
In the last 22 years, over 13,500 people have attended the HM Awards, presented by Sealy Posturepedic, and more than 1100 awards have been won by hotels across Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific.
Tickets are now available at hmawards.com.au for the 2024 HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence, which are presented by Sealy Posturepedic and co-hosted by Facilinet Building Maintenance (FBM), Hostplus and the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School.
