To be sure of a wide menu selection and an all-day bar, then choose a hotel with three or more stars. The same minimum requirement applies to all types of accommodation. The progression from one to five diamonds is primarily based on guest care and the quality of what is offered rather than a wide range of facilities and services. The rating reflects the unique character of guest accommodation and covers areas such as cleanliness, service and hospitality, bedrooms, bathrooms and food quality. The properties in this guide are inspected under the ETC's new star rating system.
All properties have to meet an extensive list of minimum requirements to take part in the scheme.
After this increased levels of quality apply. For instance you will find acceptable quality at one star, good quality at three star and excellent quality at five star. The more stars, the higher the overall level of quality. Properties at higher rating levels also have to meet some additional requirements for facilities. A new star rating scheme reflects the overall quality of the park.
