The Royal Cliff Beach Resort has become the first hotel property in the world to win FIVE ‘‘Best of Awards of Excellence 2008” from New York’s Wine Spectator magazine, which is a new world record.

It is for the first time that five such awards are won by one hotel property in one calendar year anywhere in the world! The restaurants which won the coveted awards are Caprice Restaurant & Bar (Contemporary European), Larn Thong Restaurant (Classical Thai) Grill Room & Wine Cellar (International grilled specialities), Rossini (Italian Cuisine) and Chrysanthemum Palace (Cantonese Cuisine).

The resort was holding a world record set by winning three such awards in 2007. Now, it has broken its own record by bagging five awards this year. In 2007, Grill Room & Wine Cellar, Rossini and Chrysanthemum Palace have achieved the “Best of Award of Excellence”. Along with those three, Caprice Restaurant & Bar, Royal Wing & Spa, and Larn Thong Restaurant, Royal Cliff Grand & Spa, have been honored with the Best of Awards of Excellence 2008.

This unrivalled achievement has already been hailed by many wine enthusiasts, winemakers and wine writers around the world. The award-winning restaurants offer over 1,000 fabulous wine labels.

With ten of Pattaya's best restaurants, dining at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort is like embarking on a tour of the world's finest cuisines. The just received extraordinary recognition elevates the resort as the world’s one and only property offering ultimate wining and dining indulgence — all under one roof.
