Blanket Bay, in Glenorchy, has been named the best leisure hotel in Australasia and the South Pacific by a travel magazine.

The lodge was also in 10th spot in the list of highest scores, irrespective of category, in the Conde Nast Traveller Readers' Travel Awards.

Among the world's great hotels, only two scored marginally higher than Blanket Bay: India's Rambagh Palace in Jaipur and Four Seasons Hotel in Florence, Italy.

Tourism New Zealand chief executive George Hickton said an award of this calibre was a coup for Blanket Bay, and for New Zealand.
