Cottar’s 1920s Safari Camp Wins 2014 Fodor's 100 Hotel Awards
This distinction designates Cottar's as an outstanding destination, selected by Fodor's editors and travel experts, recognizing high style, excellent service and a remarkable experience for guests.

Each year, Fodor's Travel invites their roster of 500 global contributors to nominate the best hotels in the destinations they live and write in. This year, Fodor's senior editorial team deliberated on over 4,000 Fodor's Choice picks, poring over the list for months and narrowing their top selections into eight categories. Cottar's was selected as part of Enduring Classics, properties that are legendary around the world.

Calvin Cottar, owner of Cottar's 1920s Safari Camp, said: “We are very pleased and proud to have been selected for this prestigious award. It is our goal to extend the original spirit and essence of ‘safari.' That includes an abundance of wildlife, privacy in the Bush and the highest standards of professional guiding, all in a luxurious and unique 1920s style environment. This award is a tribute to our staff who help us retain the original spirit of the Camp.

Other categories in the Fodor's Awards include: All-inclusive Vacations, Beach Getaways, Boutique Chic, Country Retreats, Modern City, Small Hotels, and Trip of a Lifetime.

“At Fodor's Travel, we know our travelers have high expectations from the moment they check into a hotel -- and so do we,” explained Arabella Bowen, Fodor's Travel Editor in Chief. “Our 100 Fodor's Hotel Award winners go above and beyond these expectations with their winning mix of service, setting, style, and amenities. We're confident that a night at any of these properties will be a highlight of the trip.”
