Zagat 2005 Top U.S. Hotels, Resorts & Spas (Zagatsurvey) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This survey is the result of surveying 16,413 frequent travelers. The respondents have stayed at hotels an average of 36 nights per year. This adds up to roughly 600,000 nights annually. These survey participants rated these hotels, resorts and spas on the quality of their rooms, services, dining facilities, and on their public spaces/facilities. In addition the resources of the American Society of Travel Agents and their 900 members were used. Overall then, the ratings represent a pretty broad range of experiences that should be a good indication of what to expect at each location.
In addition to rating the various properties by their location, this survey breaks them down by top scorers in a number of categories such as Top Hotel Chains, Top 50 hotels, Top 50 resorts, Top 50 small hotels, Tops by region and Top service and Dining to name just a few.
After the main portion of the survey, there is a sspecial features index, listing such items as Bed and Breakfast properties, Convention Centers, right down to Private Balconies, Water Views, and "Trendy Places." The list is too long to include here, but might just have the information you need to make one place more appealing to you and your family than another one you might be considering.

There are other useful sections, such as some very handy travel tips including methods of getting your reservations at better prices than those published.
Overall, for the upscale traveler, I think that this Zagat Survey is one that ought to be consulted while planning a trip.
