Forbes Travel Guide is the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels, restaurants, spas, and ocean cruise ships. Established in 1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, it pioneered the original Five-Star rating system for the hospitality industry. Forbes’ highly trained inspectors anonymously evaluate properties based on up to 900 stringent criteria, ensuring a fair and unbiased assessment.

 

Emphasising the importance of exceptional service, Forbes Travel Guide’s rigorous inspection process ensures that only the finest establishments receive its coveted star ratings.

 

The Forbes Travel Guide rating system is built on an objective and meticulous evaluation process, with inspectors paying their own way and assessing each property without prior notice. While the ratings consider both service and facilities, the primary focus remains on how a hotel, restaurant, or spa makes guests feel during their stay. This dedication to verifying true luxury experiences has cemented Forbes Travel Guide as the most trusted authority in the hospitality industry, the statement said.

 

“We are incredibly honoured to receive the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Rating for 2025,” said Stefan Radstrom, the Complex General Manager at Al Habtoor City Hotel Collection. “This accolade is a welcomed recognition of our ongoing efforts to provide an exceptional experience for everyone that walks through our doors and we pride ourselves on ensuring that every guest enjoys unparalleled service, luxurious comfort, and world-class amenities on every stay.”

 

As Al Habtoor Palace celebrates this remarkable achievement, it continues its march to redefining luxury hospitality in Dubai. With its timeless elegance, personalised service, and dedication to elevating every stay, the hotel remains a distinguished landmark in the city’s ever-evolving luxury landscape, he added. -TradeArabia News Service
