Medical Meetings' Annual M&D Awards program honors the 40 hotels, resorts, and conference centers chosen by our readers for merit and distinction in serving the needs of planners of continuing medical education seminars and medical conventions. Readers were asked to vote for the hosts that best handled their meetings or conventions in the previous 12 months. Choices were based on each property's guest room quality, meeting rooms, catering and convention services, and audiovisual/technical support. Congratulations to our winners!
Please take a few moments now to recognize properties that have done an outstanding job for you in the past 12 months by filling out the ballot. Then have a look at the 1997 winners in the special section on the following pages. We hope this will serve as a year-round reference to medical-meeting-friendly properties.
