The Port Lincoln Hotel also took out the Australian Hotels Association Awards for Excellence in the Tourism and Regional Promotion Category.
Over 750 people attended the Awards at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre. The Association’s mission is to encourage, foster and promote the pursuit of excellence in service, facilities and management practices among members for the benefit of the industry and the community of SA.  All winners will now go on to compete in the National AHA Awards to be held on the Gold Coast in September.
