citizenM hotel Amsterdam City has been named the "trendiest" hotel in the world in 2010. Chosen from reviews and ratings from some 15 million TripAdvisor users, the second property of the young and innovative Dutch hotel group citizenM was selected to take the first prize in this new category.

With more than 700 properties winning awards this year, the eighth annual "Travellers' Choice" competition is the largest ever. Properties received awards in categories such as Best Luxury, Best for Families, Best for Romance, Best Relaxation and Spa, Best Service, and Best Hotels by Region. Unlike any other hotel honours in the world, these awards are based on the real and unbiased reviews and opinions from travellers.
