The Schaffner company is manufacturing the European Hotel Awards for our event. Made of a block of premium steel, elegantly hammered and patinated, the future award is covered with a layer of metallic gold by electrolysis. Once finalized, this gold bar represents a kind of giant jewel, 4 cm square and 20 cm high. Simple, upscale and symbol of high distinction, with the European Hotel Awards name embossed in the golden steel, on one side, and the original hallmark of Schaffner, on the other side, guaranteeing Schaffner fine craftsmanship and a signature of high value.
