Houston, Texas (PRWEB) October 25, 2013 -- Condé Nast Traveler readers have named all three Valencia Group properties to the magazine’s 2013 Readers’ Choice Awards list. With a score of 94.1/100 Hotel Sorella CITYCENTRE in Houston and Hotel Valencia Riverwalk with a score of 92.8/100 in San Antonio placed at #2 and #5 in the Top 15 Hotels in Texas, while Hotel Valencia Santana Row in San Jose was #10 among the Top 25 Hotels in Northern California with a score of 90.5/100.

The Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Survey, begun in 1988, is available through a secure Web site at condenasttraveler.com/vote. This year's tabulations of 79,268 responses were done by Equation Research. The questionnaire contains lists of candidates in various categories (Cities, Hotels, etc.). Candidates must receive a required minimum number of responses to be eligible for a Readers' Choice
Award. Individual candidates are judged on a set of criteria relevant to their category, based on a standard five-point scale: excellent, very good, good, fair, and poor.
“We are thrilled that all three hotels in our award-winning collection were recognized by discerning travelers for this prestigious honor,” said Doyle Graham, Jr., President and CEO of Valencia Group. “These rankings confirm that our guests support our commitment to creating hotels with a keen sense of place, thoughtful amenities, timeless design and attentive service.”
Graham is the visionary and thought-leader behind building the Valencia Group hotel collection and attributes much of the company’s success to its unique management approach and efficient cost structure which have made the Valencia Group a leading market performer with consistent customer satisfaction ratings above the 90th percentile.
