MACAU, Jan. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- At a glittering ceremony of NOW Travel Asia Awards held in Bangkok recently, two of Galaxy Entertainment Group's flagship properties, Galaxy Macau and StarWorld Hotel were ranked as "2014 Asia's Top Entertainment Complex" and "2014 Asia's Top Leisure Hotel" respectively. The awards, organized by one of the leading luxury travel magazines in Asia - NOW Travel Asia Magazine, were decided by readers through an online vote in recognition for the excellent travel organizations in Asia-Pacific and the Greater Middle East regions.
"Situated at two distinct and strategic locations in Macau, our two fantastic properties, Galaxy Macau and StarWorld Hotel, offer travelers all they could want in this charming city. So we are very proud to have our efforts recognized by the readers of NOW Travel Asia Magazine with these high profile awards," said Ms. Vicky Wu, Brand and Marketing Communications of Galaxy Macau.

They provide guests with exceptional experiences that combine sincere Asian hospitality with the highest world-class service standards cannot be found anywhere in the world. And with the opening of our Phase 2 of Galaxy Macau in 2015, we will add even more 'first-in-Macau' features -- including the first Marriott's world-class luxury hotel brands in Macau, JW Marriott Hotel Macau and The Ritz-Carlton, Macau. There will also be a wide array of dining and shopping offerings, exceptional new meeting and conference facilities, and a doubling of our Grand Resort Deck with a host of brand new offerings."
Galaxy Macau, the only truly integrated 5-star resort in Macau was unsurprisingly voted the "2014 Asia's Top Entertainment Complex".

The perfect location means both the history and excitement of the city are with easy reach of upmarket leisure travelers, or guests can choose to indulge in the star-rated accommodation, entertainment, services and restaurants of the hotel.
