wbpstars.com's rating systemDo we really need to rate the restaurants and hotels? Oh, yes. There are zillions of restaurants and hotels out there and just a handful that are truly great. Here at wbpstars.com we focus only on fine dining and luxury hotels. So what is a fine dining restaurant or a luxury hotel you might ask? Our definition is: a full service restaurant or hotel, dedicated to service that treats you to a captivating experience, making you want to come back. We believe fine dining and luxury hotels are a passionate lifestyle.
We cover the whole world. Each restaurant and hotel is compared and reviewed against other restaurants and hotels on the planet and not just the local competition in each specific region. Our inspectors dine and stay anonymously and make multiple visits per reviewed restaurant and hotel before the results are published. In addition,our highly experienced editorial team who visit the restaurant or hotel for the content is a part of the final score as well. And last but not least we are in contact with as many guests as possible - asking them on their opinion of the restaurant and hotel being reviewed. All in all this makes out for a final assessment that is published at wbpstars.com. The score descriptions are based upon seven different criteria which you can find in the right-hand column on this page. The wbpstars.com’s ratings are frequently updated and provide an independent and frank opinion of each restaurant and hotel reviewed. On our extensive travels around the world we are always looking for new restaurants and hotels to review. Please, do not hesitate to mail us if there are restaurants and hotels you think we should review. Rating systems are always controversial, but we have decided to have a rating system to make it as easy as possible for you to see where to go to and what to avoid. An evening at a fine dining restaurant or luxury hotel can easily cost you 400 Euros per person so getting professional advice when deciding on a restaurant or hotel can save you from a costly and disappointing experience. |
