BVA BDRC’s VenueVerdict provides the only venue accreditation programme determined entirely by the voice of the customer and based on the meeting experience. In this case 365 competing venues and hotels were appraised in 2018 with decisions based on over 15,000 individual feedbacks. Venues that consistently provide an excellent customer experience are awarded the VenueVerdict Gold Standard.

Sharon Laycock, General Manager for the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel, said of the achievement: “As one of the biggest and most central meeting and events spaces in Manchester, this is a vital part of our business and one which we pride ourselves on, so this is a real testament to our dedicated and hard working on-site Meetings Team who go above and beyond for every booking.”

The nine other fully serviced function rooms are equipped to host Manchester’s key events, small gatherings and private dining.

Gavin Jones, General Manager for the Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel, commented: “The whole team is absolutely thrilled to have been awarded the highest accolade, the Gold Standard for our MICE services. This is particularly meaningful to us as it is entirely based on customer experience which is the most important feedback of all.”

The 4* Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel is located in the stunning Cotswolds, and provides a stylish mix of traditional and contemporary design to create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.  The Georgian country house is one of the most beautiful hotels in the Gloucester area set in 12 acres of its own parkland, allowing guests to enjoy the stunning scenery.  The hotel offers spacious and stylish interiors, free parking for 150 cars and events spaces accommodating up to 200 guests.  The meeting rooms within the hotel provide complimentary high-speed wifi, audio visual equipment and capacity for 180 delegates as well as a range of catering options.
