After unveiling our 2016 Forbes Travel Guide Star Awards this month, it’s no surprise that one of our new Five-Star stunners, Hotel Plaza Athénée Paris, won over our followers on our Instagram account, @ForbesTravelGuide. Just as Paris swept our awards — the city debuted on our list with a record nine Five-Star honors — it made our followers swoon. The grand and stylish Hotel Plaza Athénée (shown above) was our most popular hotel post in February with other Five-Star Paris properties trailing not too far behind.
A number of new Five-Star hotels made this month’s hotels round-up — see the list below.
