Worldwide: Following the closure of last week’s entries period, attention now turns to the sixth edition of the Shortyz Awards, to be held in London on Tuesday 1 April.
Once again, short-term / vacation rental professionals from around the world submitted entries in their hundreds from the start of December until last week [19 February]. There are 20 awards up for grabs, including two new categories for 2025 – Best interior design and Guest experience award.
Since its debut in 2020, more than 2,000 entries have now been received accumulatively for the Shortyz Awards to date.
The Shortyz Awards now progress to the next stage, when an esteemed panel of expert judges will assess all of the entries to assemble 20 shortlists, which will be unveiled in mid March. The companies and individuals who are successful in making shortlists will then enter into a voting period via our dedicated awards platform – the award winners will then be determined by a 50:50 split between the judge scores and the public vote.
The 2025 event will be held as an in-person awards ceremony on the evening of Tuesday 1 April 2025 at Leonardo Royal Hotel London Tower Bridge.
Situated in the vibrant district of East London, the Leonardo Royal Hotel London Tower Bridge offers a perfect base for the Shortyz Awards. This superior hotel combines contemporary luxury with a prime location, making it easy to explore some of London’s most iconic landmarks, including the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, and The Shard. Located on a quiet street yet surrounded by the energy of the city.
This year, we are upping the ante – with a more formal award ceremony, your ticket will include a welcome drinks reception, a three-course sit down dinner + wine, the awards ceremony itself and some magical entertainment to ensure an unforgettable evening! The dress code is – Dress To Impress / You Do You – so anything goes!
There, we will once again come together to recognise excellence amongst industry peers, highlight innovation and industry best practice, reward achievement, and celebrate startup technology.

STRz appreciates the efforts that all entrants have gone to for their submissions, resulting in a high calibre of entries, and wishes the best of luck to everyone who entered this year.
