Hotel Star System

Of course, first drew attention to the number of "stars." This general rule – theirs, the stars, more ("Crowns," "suns", "key", "moon" and so on), the higher class hotels. (We're talking about a hotel, not the so-called "Home visitors" or other categories of accommodation – there is another classification, see below). But always remember that the three-star hotel in Germany is not adequate to the hotel with the same number of stars, for example, in Egypt or Turkey. In addition to characters, the level of the hotel is expressed in words or letters, for example, in Thailand to denote Hotel ** – Budget (B), *** – Medium (M), **** – Standard (S), **** – First Class (F), *** ** – Deluxe (D). Now, some hotels are very high level of appropriating another category "Luxury" or "deluxe" (eg *** ** Deluxe – a level higher than normal *** **). Of course, you can always tell a different category hotels in appearance – in beauty and size of the building. But it is obvious that this is only the outward differences. But the concept of "level Hotel 'is the mass of components: 1) the general improvement – is the amount of space (halls, conference rooms), the presence and quantity of restaurants, bars, cafes, etc., interior decoration, the availability of elevators (new / old, fast / slow and etc.).

2) equipment rooms – (furniture – modern, quality, etc.), room size, comfortable furniture, bathroom equipment, cleanliness, functionality, lighting, etc. 3) service – the regularity and frequency of cleaning rooms, bed linen and towels, attentive to the guests pleasant things like chocolates on the pillow, etc. Who has a currently "star" hotel classification adopted in almost all European countries, for exception of Greece, Albania, the CIS countries and certain islands. In Greece, the letter designations are used categories of hotels. For example, the letter A stands for **** Hotel, B – *** C – **.
