Το Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah στο Ντουμπάι λαμβάνει το βραβείο AUBERGE AWARD 2023 από την BERLINER TAGEZEITUNG
"Αν κάποιος κάνει ένα ταξίδι, μπορεί να πει μια ιστορία", είχε πει κάποτε ο Γερμανός ποιητής Matthias Claudius το 1775. Ακολουθώντας ακριβώς αυτή τη ρήση, οι δημοσιογράφοι μας ταξίδεψαν, κρυφά και απαρατήρητοι, στο Ντουμπάι των Ηνωμένων Αραβικών Εμιράτων, όπου βρήκαν ένα πραγματικό κόσμημα της κορυφαίας ξενοδοχειακής βιομηχανίας, χωρίς καν να υποψιαστούν ότι το αντικείμενο του δημοσιογραφικού ενδιαφέροντος, το "Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah", είχε ελεγχθεί πολύ προσεκτικά από τους δημοσιογράφους μας, οι οποίοι έχουν δει εκατοντάδες ξενοδοχεία σε όλες τις ηπείρους του πλανήτη μας.Κατ' αρχάς, υπάρχουν ξενοδοχεία στο Ντουμπάι και υπάρχουν ξενοδοχεία, το ένα πολυτελέστερο από το άλλο, εδώ είναι γενικά δύσκολο για τον ταξιδιώτη να ξεχωρίσει την ήρα από το στάρι, ενόψει της άφθονης προσφοράς! ΕΔΏ ΜΠΟΡΕΊΤΕ ΝΑ ΔΕΊΤΕ ΤΟ ΒΊΝΤΕΟ
Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah в Дубае получает награду AUBERGE AWARD 2023 от BERLINER TAGEZEITUNG
"Если кто-то отправляется в путешествие, он может рассказать историю", - сказал немецкий поэт Матиас Клаудиус в 1775 году. Следуя именно этому высказыванию, наши журналисты незаметно и неузнанными отправились в Дубай в Объединенных Арабских Эмиратах, где обнаружили настоящую жемчужину высшего гостиничного бизнеса, даже не подозревая, что объект журналистского интереса, "Hilton Dubai Palm Jumeirah", был очень тщательно осмотрен нашими журналистами, повидавшими сотни отелей на всех континентах нашего земного шара.Прежде всего, следует сказать, что в Дубае есть отели, а есть гостиницы, одна роскошнее другой, здесь вообще трудно путешественнику отделить мякину от пресловутой пшеницы в виду обилия предложений! ЗДЕСЬ ВЫ МОЖЕТЕ ПОСМОТРЕТЬ ВИДЕО
두바이의 힐튼 두바이 팜 주메이라가 베를린 타게자이퉁으로부터 2023년 오베르주 어워드를 수상했습니다.
독일 시인 마티아스 클라우디우스는 1775년 "누군가 여행을 떠난다면 그는 이야기를 들려줄 수 있다"고 말했습니다. 이 시인의 말처럼 우리 기자들은 아무도 모르게 은밀하게 아랍에미리트 두바이로 여행을 떠났고, 그곳에서 세계 각지의 수백 개 호텔을 둘러본 우리 기자들이 취재 대상인 '힐튼 두바이 팜 주메이라'를 매우 철저하게 점검했다는 사실을 의심하지 않고 최고의 호텔 산업의 진정한 보석을 발견했습니다.우선, 두바이에는 호텔이 있고 다른 호텔보다 더 고급스러운 호텔이 있으며, 여기에는 일반적으로 여행자가 풍부한 제안을 고려하여 밀과 쭉정이를 분리하기가 어렵습니다! 여기에서 동영상을 볼 수 있습니다.
