Tripadvisor, the world’s largest travel comparison platform, today released the winners of its annual Travelers'
Choice Best of the Best Hotels Awards. These accolades, which recognize the year’s highest-rated hotels around the globe—as determined by Tripadvisor user reviews—are awarded to some of the top one percent of the 1.6 million hotel properties listed
on its platform.
If you’re searching for the absolute cream of the crop, the very best accommodations on the planet, this is your guide. When you visit the microsite, you can narrow the results
according to country, as well as using subcategories like luxury, all-inclusive, family-friendly, boutique, B&Bs and Inns, and more. New award subcategories debuting this year are pet-friendly, sustainable and wellness-focused hotels.
"Our Best of the Best Hotels are marvels, acclaimed by thousands of travelers for their remarkable service, stunning design, and wealth of amenities that redefine what it means to have an exceptional hotel experience," said Dan Mitchell, vice president
& general manager hotels, Tripadvisor.
The Travelers Choice Best of the Best Hotel Awards are actually one of several annual awards that fall under Tripadvisor's broader Travelers' Choice Award umbrella, which serve to spotlight guests’ favorite travel experiences from around the globe. The
awards are determined by evaluating the quality and quantity of traveler reviews and ratings within each subcategory contributed on the Tripadvisor platform during the 2023 calendar year.
