Philema Wins Digital Transformation Award

We are delighted to share that Philema Hospitality Management has won the award for Best Hotel Digital Transformation at the Boutique Hotelier Awards 2026.

Presented at a black-tie ceremony at London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square, the award celebrates hotels that have improved their technology to create a more effective and guest-focused experience.

Central to this achievement was Philema’s partnership with hospitality technology provider Profitroom, who sponsored the Best Hotel Digital Transformation award.

Over the past year, the teams have worked together to introduce Profitroom’s Booking Engine 360 across all four Philema properties: Boringdon Hall, Fistral Beach Hotel and Spa, Budock Vean Hotel & Spa, and The Esplanade Hotel. By bringing rooms, spa treatments and dining experiences into one seamless booking platform, it allows guests to explore each hotel and shape a stay around what matters to them, supporting a smoother journey from the first moment of inspiration through to arrival.

The ongoing support from Profitroom helped us to bring our vision to life, and we are incredibly proud of our Sales & Marketing team, whose creativity, commitment and attention to detail helped make the platform’s success possible.

Winning the Best Hotel Digital Transformation award is a proud milestone for Philema Hospitality Management and a tribute to the collaboration behind it. As we look ahead, we will continue to embrace new ideas that create more meaningful moments and enrich every stay.
