About the Forbes Travel Guide
According to Forbes, the travel guide dates back to 1958 and is the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels, spas, restaurants, and cruise ships. Winning is considered a prestigious achievement in the industry, with each rating based on up to 900 meticulous standards, including cleanliness, efficiency, gracious service, sense of luxury, guest comfort, and sustainability, to name just a few.
