2024 Winners!

We are proud to announce the winners of the Highlands and Islands Thistle Awards, which recognise, highlight and reward excellence within the hospitality industry across the Highlands and Islands.

For 2024 there were 16 Awards up for grabs, covering the various facets of the customer and visitor experience in our tourism industry. The winners were celebrated at our prestigious Awards Ceremony and Dinner, held on Friday 4th October at the Kingsmills Hotel in Inverness, the capital and heart of the Highlands.

We are thrilled to partner with the Scottish Thistle Awards. Each category winner, with the exception of our Highland Ambassador, will automatically become a finalist at the Scottish Thistle Awards National Final in November.
