Mandarin Oriental has once again been honoured by the readers of Travel + Leisure in the 2025 World's Best Awards. Celebrated for delivering exceptional service and deeply personal guest experiences, the brand was recognised alongside five of its iconic hotels, reflecting a legacy shaped by craftsmanship, cultural connection and timeless elegance.
The World's Best Awards are among the most respected accolades in global travel, voted for by a passionate community of readers who seek out service excellence, authentic encounters and destination-led design. Mandarin Oriental was named No. 14 on the list of 25 Favorite Hotel Brands, reaffirming its standing as one of the most admired names in luxury hospitality.
Among this year's recognised properties was Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, a landmark that continues to shape the identity of the brand. As the 'Oriental' in the Group's name, the hotel represents a legacy of refined hospitality that has evolved over one hundred and fifty years. Its enduring influence is reflected in the brand's dedication to meaningful cultural connection, considered craftsmanship, and an elegant service style rooted in its Asian heritage. As both a symbol of tradition and a source of continued inspiration, the hotel remains central to the Group's past, present and future.

Whether delivering Michelin-starred cuisine, restorative wellness journeys or once-in-a-lifetime moments, each property is a reflection of the brand's artistry and poise.
This recognition follows a year of continued growth, including the recent additions of Mandarin Oriental, Desaru Coast and San Clemente Palace, and the forthcoming openings of Mandarin Oriental, Vienna and Mandarin Oriental Downtown Dubai. With a robust development pipeline, the brand continues to set new standards of excellence while staying true to the values that define it.
