Brisbane’s Iris Rooftop served as the location for Wednesday nights ‘Best of the Best’ luxury supplier showcase – the final event of the series in 2025. Already this year, the coalition of partners has held events in Melbourne, Sydney and Singapore (the first overseas edition, coinciding with ILTM Asia Pacific).

The first offshore event for the Australian ‘Best of the Best’ associates was hosted at COMO Metropolitan Singapore today, to kick off ILTM Asia Pacific in Singapore.

A group of leading luxury suppliers has wound up its 2023 ‘Best of the Best’ series of events which were held in Sydney, Perth and Melbourne in recent weeks.

Virtuoso has revealed the 50 hotels and hospitality greats nominated for its coveted Best of the Best awards. The nominees are part of the Virtuoso Hotels & Resorts program, which includes over 1,300 properties in more than 100 countries.

This year’s contenders across nine categories were chosen by the network and the editors of Virtuoso Life magazine, and represent the height of achievement in their given category. The 10th category focuses on sustainable travel and recognises the hotels that most embody the commitment to the three pillars of sustainable tourism: preserving the environment, supporting local economies and celebrating cultures.
