Meet the winners of Association Meeting’s 2009 Inner Circle Awards
Kudos to our Inner Circle Award winners for 2009! In our 18th annual Inner Circle Award program, our readers have chosen 40 hotel winners. These properties were selected for their high level of service, flexible function space, quality of food and beverage, and good value on room rates.
For the eleventh year in a row, AM readers have also voted for their top-rated convention centers, convention and visitors bureaus, and tourist boards.
Congratulations to all our winners!
