Topic Reading-Vol.3871-11/16/2022

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
What hotel star ratings actually mean today
When you book a hotel in an unfamiliar place, how do you find one that suits your need, taste, and budget? If there is your favorite or familiar hotel chain, you’ll probably get what you expect. But if there isn’t one in the place, say in a foreign country or remote destination, or you want to experience an extraordinary time, how would you find one? In general, the more you pay, the more you could enjoy. However, the price isn’t always a reliable indicator when it comes to lodgings as their prices vary by season, time, and demand. Then you may check online user ratings, which you may just find many extreme comments on either side. If you really want to get some idea from those comments, you may want to scrutinize a number of comments and find common mentioning in different wordings. What about a star rating? There are a wide variety of rating schemes used by different organizations around the world, some are authorized by the government or its agency, and others are rated by popular commercial services such as the Forbes Travel Guide and the AAA. The most popular public rating uses Tourist (), Standard (★★), Comfort (★★★), First Class (★★★★), Luxury (★★★★★), and others describe Deluxe/Luxury, First Class/Superior, Tourist Class/Standard, and Budget Class/Economy.
More confused? You may want to refer to the brand, rating, guests’ comments, photos, google Maps if available in the place, and lastly but not least, the budget and deals.
Enjoy reading the article and learning the mechanism of hotel ratings.
