A TIVERTON hotel has been award a certificate of excellence from a review service.

Tripadvisor gave Tiverton Best Western the award after a 12 month period of great reviews on its site. Hotels are rated based on quality, quantity, and recency of reviews.

The hotel is on Blundells Road and is set on two acres of land.

General Manager Rhys Roberts said: "The whole team is delighted we have won this award for the third year running and we are very grateful to our customers who rated us so highly."

Heather Leisman,vice president of industry marketing for TripAdvisor, said: "With the Certificate of Excellence, TripAdvisor honours hospitality businesses that have consistently received strong praise and ratings from travellers.

"This recognition helps travellers identify and book properties that regularly deliver great service. TripAdvisor is proud to play this integral role in helping travellers feel more confident in their booking decisions."

To qualify for a certificate of excellence, businesses must maintain an overall TripAdvisor bubble rating of at least four or five, and have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.
