Summary: RATINGS BY ACTUAL TRAVELERS
Review: What I like most about Zagat Surveys is the fact that, although Zagat works with travel agents to get information about the properties that are listed, the actual raters are not publicitists or travel agents. They are, in fact, people who have stayed at the resorts or hotels being rated, people who have stayed there, eaten there, used the facilities such as pools and spas, and who have experienced the hotels' service, both good, bad, and indifferent, and have no vested interest in reporting what they like or dislike.Propertiy ratings cover the following categories: Rooms, Service, Dining, and Public Space. Costs given are the high season rack rates for standard double rooms. Since the ratings are averages of a great number of responses, individual biases probably don't affect them very much. Properties are listed by country, city within the country, where applicable, and then in alphabetical order. For convenience, there are a great number of cross references such as: Golf, Hiking, Historical Interest, Pet-Friendly, etc., and even by availability of Fireplaces. Comments are those of people who have stayed in the properties, and range from raves to "rants." All in all, If you are looking for an upper end hotel or resort almost anywhere in the world, this Zagat Survey should be of help.
