The Independent Hotel Show has announced the shortlists for its 2017 Independent Hotelier and Outstanding New Hotel awards.
The first award is presented to an entrepreneurial spirit who is renowned for pushing boundaries and shaping the independent hotel sector, while the second will go to the new hotel which has made a significant impact through its dynamic operation, innovation and unique style.

The shortlist for this year's awards have been drawn up by a judging panel of industry experts based on innovation, inspiration, financial performance, team development, contribution to the industry at large and a clear distinction in a competitive landscape.
