Each hotel receives a composite score weighted by category-relevant review signals — romance, family, wellness. Then, only hotels with a minimum review volume qualify, ensuring statistical reliability. Outliers are excluded.

Rank & Refresh

The top 10 is published and refreshed annualy as new review data comes in.
