Accepting the award on behalf of the Nell were Alinio Azevedo, managing director and chief operating officer, The Little Nell Hotel Group; Jonathan Fillman, general manager of the le Nell; and Tim Baldwin, general manager of Residences at The Little Nell.
“To earn the Forbes Five-Star Award for 25 years in a row is an incredible achievement,” said Fillman. “I’m immensely thankful for and proud of every member of our team at The Little Nell who works hard day after day, always willing to go the extra mile for our guests.”
