| South Africa's Bushmans Kloof voted world's top hotel by Travel+Leisure - HospitalityBizIndia Posted: 18 Dec 2009 08:40 PM PST Travel website Travel+Leisure in a survey has voted South Africa's Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve the world's best hotel in 2009. The survey, which was released recently, ranks the top 500 places to stay across the globe and was compiled based on the opinions of the website's experts and readers. According to a Reuter's report, India's deluxe Oberoi Vanyavilas in Rajasthan took the second place and in the third spot was Jade Mountain in the Caribbean island of St Lucia. Earth Lodge at Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve in South Africa was voted fourth and Canada's Inn at Manitou, McKellar, Ontario, rounded out the top five. Travel+Leisure, however, said that 66 out of the top 500 hotels cost USD 250 or less a night, which showed luxury does not always have to cost too much, especially as people across the globe have cut back on travel due to the downturn.
