EDITOR'S COMMENT

• Excitement is building rapidly ahead of this year's rescheduled Serviced Apartment Awards in association with Zeevou, taking place on Thursday 16 September at the Chelsea Harbour Hotel in London, when the industry will reunite in person for an evening of celebration and marking achievement during this challenging period.

The 2021 awards will be especially poignant this year with the introduction of a special new category to honour industry heroes - those who have stepped up to the plate over the last 15 months, going beyond the call of duty to support their colleagues, their guests and the wider industry. This year's shortlist includes Kim Ashmore, ASAP; Keith Freeman, Staycity [which has just signed the Diplomatico Hotel in Lisbon for its Wilde Aparthotels brand]; Richard Majewski, SABA, ESSA; Tony Mathuru, Blue Orchid Hotels and Central London Alliance; and John Png, GM, Modena by Fraser Zhuankou, Wuhan - any of whom would be a worthy recipient of this award.

As well as the Industry Hero award, another 18 awards are up for grabs, including the existing Rising Star and Industry Inspiration categories for individuals. Companies attending include Zeevou, Flying Butler Apartments, Atellior, RMS, Labs Collective, Yays, Expedia, Check-in London, Cheval Collection, Cap Worldwide, and many more.
