For the 2023 edition, Tripadvisor meticulously analyzed a wealth of review data spanning a full year – from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2022. With over 1.5-million hotels scrutinized by discerning travelers, the awards provide a comprehensive snapshot of the highest-rated accommodations that have left an indelible mark on their patrons.

 

The year 2023 has ushered in a renewed focus on wellness in the realm of travel. With more people seeking solace and rejuvenation through their journeys, Tripadvisor has introduced two innovative subcategories for this year’s awards: The Best Hotels with Spas and the Best Hotels for Sleep. These categories recognize the evolving desires of travelers who are looking beyond the usual comforts and seeking holistic experiences that nourish both body and soul.

 

The inaugural Best Hotels for Sleep category shines a spotlight on the top 10 accommodations across the world where guests have consistently rated the quality of sleep as exceptional in their reviews. Quality sleep is the cornerstone of a fulfilling travel experience, and these hotels have managed to craft an environment conducive to rest and relaxation, truly elevating the art of hospitality.

 

The equally significant category of Best Hotels with Spas acknowledges the growing trend of travelers seeking not only a place to lay their heads but also a haven where they can unwind and revitalize. This collection of hotels goes beyond the conventional, offering spa experiences that cater to diverse wellness needs and provide a sanctuary for those seeking respite from the rigors of daily life.

It’s not just the breath-taking locations or luxurious amenities that have propelled these hotels to the pinnacle of traveler recognition. The Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Hotel Awards employ a meticulous methodology that relies on both the quality and quantity of traveler reviews and ratings posted on Tripadvisor during the 12-month period under scrutiny. These reviews provide an authentic reflection of the guest experience, from the moment they check in to the time they reluctantly bid adieu.

 

In addition to the review-based assessment, Tripadvisor incorporates an editorial process to ensure that the awards truly capture the essence of exceptional accommodations. This dual-pronged approach guarantees that the winners not only meet stringent quality criteria but also resonate with the diverse community of global travelers that Tripadvisor proudly serves.

 

From the iconic JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai to the tranquil Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Dubai, the global winners of these awards stand as testament to the evolving landscape of travel. They showcase that in an era of redefined priorities, hotels have risen to the occasion, creating havens where the pursuit of wellness and relaxation intertwine seamlessly with the pleasures of exploration.
