Crockfords at Resorts World Genting (RWG) has once again secured a 5-star rating in the 67th Forbes Travel Guide (FTG), making it an impressive seventh consecutive year for the hotel.
Crockfords stamps its mark as the only hotel in Malaysia to be awarded FTG’s prestigious 5 Star accolade in 2025, being amongst the 539 celebrated luxury properties worldwide to have been accorded this status.
RWG properties, Genting Grand and Highlands Hotel also stood out among the list of other honourees and award recipients, emerging as Forbes 4 Star Property and Forbes Recommended Property, respectively, making it the eighth year these hotels have upheld their respective recognitions.
FTG is globally considered as the foremost benchmark of the world’s finest luxury hotels, restaurants, spas and ocean cruises. Its award ratings serve as an authoritative guidepost for guests seeking exceptional travel experiences. The travel guide utilises a proprietary algorithm to weigh excellence in service and quality of the property. Evaluated anonymously by FTG’s expert inspectors, a hotel must receive a high score of at least 90% in all respects from service to the minutest of details to deserve a 5-Star rating.
“We are honoured to receive a 5-Star rating from the acclaimed Forbes Travel Guide. At Resorts World Genting, we are dedicated to continuously push the envelope for greater gold standard achievements in world class hospitality,” said Spencer Lee, Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing & Public Relations.
“This latest distinction from Forbes Travel Guide is a validation of our relentless passion for delivering exceptional stays. Crockfords as a Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star property is a destination unto itself. As an iconic symbol of luxury and thoughtful service from the heart, we take pride in ensuring that every visit is extraordinary and memorable,” said David Leung Ming Sum, Vice President of Hotel Operations.
Resorts World Genting was recently the proud recipient of the Best ASEAN New Tourism Attraction award at the 34th ASEANTA Excellence Awards in Johor Bahru. The premier resort above the clouds is poised to play host to and receive visitors from all over ASEAN as Malaysia embraces its role as the Chair of ASEAN in 2025.
