Five star Hotel

A “Five Star Hotel” is a hotel rated at the upper end of the Lux class (or classed as Ultra Lux).

Hotel ratings are often used to classify hotels according to their quality. Food services, entertainment, view, room variations such as size and additional amenities, spas and fitness centers, ease of access and location may be considered in establishing a standard. Hotels are independently assessed and ratings rest heavily on the facilities provided. This is disadvantageous to smaller hotels whose quality of accommodation could fall into one class but the lack of one item prevents it from reaching a higher categorization.

Hotel rating systems have also been criticized by some who argue that the rating criteria for such systems are overly complex and difficult for tourists to understand. It has been suggested that the lack of a Union-wide global system for rating hotels may also undermine the usability of such schemes.

Overview of Criteria
Properties that typify luxury across all areas of operation. Guests will enjoy an extensive range of facilities and comprehensive or highly personalized services. Properties at this level will display excellent design quality and attention to detail.
