The 37-year-old sued Michael David Barrett and two hotels after being left traumatised by the shocking ordeal, which occurred in a hotel in Columbus, Ohio, and one in Nashville, Tennessee.
Barrett was held responsible for 51% of the verdict while two hotel companies will share the rest.
Taking to Twitter after the verdict was announced, she said she had been 'honoured' by the support she had received.
She posted: "I've been honoured by all the support from victims around the world.

"Their outreach has helped me be able to stand up and hold accountable those whose job it is to protect everyone's safely, security and privacy."
Barrett pleaded guilty to stalking Andrews, tampering with hotel room peepholes and taking nude videos of her. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison. He didn't show up to the trial.
