Escape Room Herndon Snags Tripadvisor Award

HERNDON, VA — Escape Room Herndon, where players compete in a live-action, team-based puzzle game, was recognized Thursday with a 2020 Travelers' Choice award in the Fun&Games category.

“Our team was very excited to hear we received the 2020 Travelers’ Choice award. Our mission has always been to give every player a uniquely memorable experience that they can share with friends and family.” Said Omer Aru, owner of Escape Room Herndon, in a release. “During these days we know how important it is to find fun safe activities that can create special memorable moments to hold onto. Our team here at ERH has always worked hard to make this the magical and welcoming place it is! We’re thankful to all of our amazing guests for giving us a chance to host them.”

The award is based on a full year of Tripadvisor reviews, with award-winners placing among the top 10 percent of hospitality businesses around the world. Escape Room Herndon's reviews were recorded before any changes were implemented due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“Winners of the 2020 Travelers’ Choice Awards should be proud of this distinguished recognition,” said Kanika Soni, chief commercial officer at Tripadvisor, in a release. “Although it’s been a challenging year for travel and hospitality, we want to celebrate our partners' achievements. Award winners are beloved for their exceptional service and quality. Not only are these winners well deserving, they are also a great source of inspiration for guest as the world begins to venture out again.”

Located at 406 Elden St., Escape Room Herndon has implemented COVID-19 protocols and remains open during Phase 3 of Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's phased reopening of businesses in the state.
