It is the only home-grown operator of hotels and serviced residences to achieve the prestigious accolade this year.

The Interactive Media Awards (IMA), by the Interactive Media Council, is an annual international competition that recognises organizations for their outstanding achievement and professionalism in website design and development. The Best in Class award is the highest honour bestowed by the nonprofit organization, which consists of leading web designers, developers, programmers, advertisers and other web-related professionals. The Best in Class award confirms Far East Hospitality’s StayFarEast.com’s excellence in design, usability, innovation in technical features, standards compliance and content.

Far East Hospitality is Singapore’s largest operator of hotels and serviced residences. Offering the widest range of accommodation options for short to long term stays, Far East Hospitality’s StayFarEast website offers a convenient one-stop portal for leisure and business travellers worldwide. Since the website’s revamp in August 2012, travellers can find out more, book, and get exclusive deals and promotions across nine hotels and 10 serviced residences in Singapore and Malaysia right at their fingertips.

“Today’s savvy leisure and business travellers want an online experience that gives them just what they want – be it to research, book, or find out the best deals around. StayFarEast.com was revamped to strengthen its customer-centric focus, from our close integration with TripAdvisor reviews to the ease at which travellers can compare and view available accommodation options across all our hotels and serviced residences in a consolidated form whenever they want. We are honoured to have achieved top recognition by the IMA, and will continue to provide travellers worldwide with our home grown world class Singapore hospitality at every touchpoint,” said Raphael Saw, Chief Operating Officer of Far East Hospitality.
