Best Theme Park
Tokyo DisneySea

Runners-up:
Disneyland Park
Disney California Adventure

Best New Attraction
Transformers: The Ride

Runner-up:
Radiator Springs Racers

This was the closest finish ever in this category. They claimed two of the highest ratings ever (the third belonging to Forbidden Journey). RSR also marks the highest rated Disney attraction since 1999. They destroyed the competition so no others were listed.

Best Theme Park Hotel
Disney's Grand California Hotel

Runners up:
Universal's Portofino Bay Hotel
Disney's Beach Club Resort

Best Theme Park Restaurant
Bistro de Paris (Epcot)

Runners up:
Teppan Edo (Epcot)

Well, you can consider Transformers had about an extra months of voting time probably.

Yeah, that has to be the only reason it won. Although I'm sure Transformers is fantastic, Radiator Springs Racers is really made up of what we absolutely love about theme park attractions: real environments, complete immersion, state-of-the-art animatronics, etc.

Surprised not to see IOA near the top of Best Park and sucks that Mythos officially lost its reign.

The owner of TPI said that's a moot point since most rides have their highest rating a week or two after opening.
