Service Excellence Awards
Our Big 3 Quality Pledge is intended to inspire our team members to achieve award winning levels of Service Excellence! When a hotel or a team member receives an award in recognition of exemplary service, it is a source of pride for all of us in the Hospitality Group. It is an affirmation of the remarkable results that can be achieved through consistent delivery of service excellence…all in the spirit of Our Big 3! It helps us tell our story to current and prospective clients. It aids us in recruiting and retaining the best team members in the business. It establishes us as a paragon of excellence in our local business communities and denotes us as outstanding brand citizens.
Take a look at some of the recent awards that we have received:
- Crowne Plaza Washington National Airport—Torchbearer Award, presented to the top eight Crowne Plaza hotels in North America for delivering the highest Overall Satisfaction for the past 12 months. The hotel has earned this prestigious distinction for two consecutive years.

To nurture a motivated and engaged team, we also celebrate our own through several recognition programs:
- Our Big 3 Award is presented once every four months to the hotel team who best exemplifies our quality pledge by achieving the highest score on Our Big 3 Report Card. This proprietary score card reports each hotel’s performance across 15 metrics and includes a one-page Spirit of Our Big 3 narrative that summarizes how each hotel team makes Our Big 3 come alive each and every day.
- Three Mission Statement Leaders are selected each month for their contributions to the fulfillment of the Company Mission Statement.
- Each hotel recognizes a Team Member of the Month as well as a Team Member of the Year. Choosing from the properties’ honorees, the corporate team identifies three Divisional Team Members of the Year.
