Shortlists revealed for the 2026 Serviced Apartment Awards

The shortlists for 15 categories of the annual Serviced Apartment Awards have been revealed ahead of the ceremony on 11th May 2026 at Hilton London Bankside. 

Of the 20 awards up for grabs, 15 of the categories are judged independently by a panel of experts who work across industry sectors such as architecture and design, benchmarking, brokerage, investment advisory, sales and marketing, sustainability, and more. 

Entries which best fulfilled the relevant category criteria, as scored by our judges, have now progressed to shortlists. 

Four award categories have been judged by public vote.
