      Who Are The 2012 Forbes Travel Guide Star Award Winners?

      The Mandarin Oriental, Singapore is a new Five-Star hotel.

      Mandarin Oriental, Singapore is a new Five-Star hotel.

      Forbes Travel Guide’s newest Five-Star award-winning hotels, restaurants and spas include 57 hotels, 25 restaurants and 30 spas in the U.S., Canada, China and Singapore. The Four-Star award-winners encompass 176 hotels, 146 restaurants and 103 spas.

      How does Forbes Travel Guide determine who receives a Star Award? Our inspectors visit every hotel, restaurant and spa we rate, anonymously testing every aspect of a property’s experience. Our ratings are never bought or sold; we cover the cost of our travel so that we can give you an unbiased, accurate and timely report on what you’ll find when you check in to our Star-Rated hotels, restaurants and spas. While we make sure that every location we recommend has incredible facilities, there’s no hard-and-fast rule for what that means — a property can be laidback and casually chic, traditional and formal, or every kind of style in between. What matters most to our professional inspectors, who evaluate more than 500 standards at each property we visit, is the service experience. When we check in to a hotel, restaurant or spa, we notice if the staff welcomes you warmly, greets you by name and anticipates whatever you might need-before you’ve even realized you needed it.

      The goal is to ensure that our top-rated properties are consistent, and consistently excellent. Because when you’re deciding where to spend your precious time and money, the experience should be exceptional each and every time. With Forbes Travel Guide’s Five-Star ratings as your guide, excellence in travel is what you’ll get. See below for the complete list.
