AHEAD Asia, the Awards for Hospitality Experience and Design, has revealed its winners in an online webcast ceremony via the AHEAD website.

From a vertical mansion in the sky overlooking Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour to a contemporary Japanese ryokan on the western outskirts of Kyoto, the awards recognised aesthetic, conceptual, functional and commercial breakthroughs.

The judging panel, made up of industry leading hoteliers, designers, architects and experts, chose the winners based on guest experience, aesthetic quality and commercial feasibility.

The resulting Asia winners will now go on to compete against other regions, with worldwide champions set to be crowned at the next AHEAD Global edition. See the full list of winners below:
