How does our luxury hotel selection work in practice? To assist us, we have an editorial staff and several skilled programmers. By collecting and analyzing large amounts of information, we provide our editors with an initial list of hotels that seem to be the most attractive and popular, using an algorithm custom made for users looking for the best stays at their destination. This algorithm follows a set of rules to sort, select and remove accommodations. Among them are:
- The user review rating should not fall below a certain threshold.
- The hotel must have reviews. However, if new hotels appear, we may mark them as ‘Up & Coming’.
- The accommodation must be 4 or 5 stars.
- Hotel may contain features such as Consierge, suties, spa with pools among others.
In the next step, our editors review the selection and may add, remove, or re-order hotels as needed. They also keep an eye on what is particularly interesting for families at this destination, ensuring these factors are reflected in the hotel selection.
