NEEDHAM,
Mass., May 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today,
Tripadvisor® announced the winners of its 2023
Travelers' Choice® Best of the Best Hotel Awards. In its
21st edition, the awards align with the kickoff of the summer
travel season, providing inspiration by revealing the best places
to stay in the U.S. and around the world. Tripadvisor analyzed 12
months of review data (January 1,
2022 - December 31, 2022) from
real travelers covering more than 1.5 million hotels, to determine
travelers' highest-rated accommodations of the year. Discover all
the winners and get planning at
tripadvisor.com/TravelersChoice-Hotels.
"It's clear that our community ventured far and wide last
year: Our 10 winning subcategories encompass 37 regions around the
world and include a wide range of amazing places to stay," said
Sarah Firshein, Head of Editorial at
Tripadvisor. "An opulent palace in Jaipur topped the charts, while
hotels ranging from a 'glamping' retreat in Patagonia to a rock 'n' roll–themed boutique
in Boston made their mark as well.
As our savvy reviewers know, hotels can sometimes be the entire
reason for the trip—I'm personally very excited to consult this
list as I plot out the next year of vacations with my own
family."
Hotel Headlines: 2023 Trends
- This year, wellness is top of mind for travelers.
All-inclusives and hotels set in relaxing Caribbean destinations rank highly in the 2023
awards. With more travelers in search of relaxation, Tripadvisor
launched two brand new subcategories for 2023 to help everyone find
their zen: The Best Hotels with Spas and the Best Hotels for
Sleep.
- The 2023 awards, particularly in the U.S., feature many new
winners, suggesting that as more people traveled and left
reviews over the past year, they ventured to new places,
both at home and abroad.
- Asia tops the charts
for travelers this year, proving that the market has bounced back
as a tourism destination. Nine of the top 25 Hottest New Hotels are
in Asia, along with eight of the
Top Hotels in the world, including the esteemed No. 1 spot.
- Brazil takes the cake with the
most winners on the world list this year, with Istanbul beating out other cities. In the
U.S., Charleston has the most
unique winners, followed by New York
City and Washington,
D.C.
And the Winners are…
This year's No. 1 Hotel in the
prestigious Top Hotels category is Rambagh Palace in Jaipur,
India. Dubbed "The Jewel of Jaipur," this 1835
palace-turned-luxurious hotel holds unbelievable extravagance. A
new No. 1 winner for 2023, Rambagh Palace has over 5,000
five-bubble reviews and is beloved for its polo bar, historic
suites, and high tea.
In the U.S., The Perry Lane Hotel in Savannah, Georgia, ranks No. 1 for
travelers this year. The luxurious, cosmopolitan hotel provides a
rare duality in contemporary design and draws inspiration from the
historic city it calls home. Ranking No. 22 in 2022, The Perry Lane
rose to the top this year based on glowing traveler reviews
highlighting its chic rooftop bar, food and beverage offerings, and
warm Southern hospitality, to name a few.
The distinguished Top Hotels list is a diverse ranking with

where guests have rated sleep most highly in their reviews. For
travelers in need of sweet dreams, visit Dromoland Castle Hotel in
Ireland, rated No. 1 in the world
in this inaugural subcategory, where a serene slumber is almost
certain. For those looking to stay closer to home, the U.S. holds

zen, none succeed quite like The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, the No. 1 rated Spa Hotel. This is
the "highest" hotel in the world, so the views alone are worth
visiting the spa on the 116th floor, which redefines the urban spa

China

As the hospitality industry continues to rebound, many new
hotels have opened their doors, the best of which are recognized in
Tripadvisor's Hottest New Hotels for 2023. OBLU SELECT
Lobigili in the Maldives secures
Tripadvisor's "rookie of the year" status, ranking No. 1 in the
world. This 5-star resort exclusively for adults features
nature-inspired designs that bring to life a secluded, castaway
feel, once again proving wellness is paramount for travelers. In
the U.S., San Francisco's design-
and art-driven LUMA Hotel takes the crown.
Those looking for more bucket list adventures and
Instagram-worthy photo-ops can explore the most
Out-of-the-Ordinary Hotels for a stay to remember:
- Patagonia Camp in Chile
is No. 1 in the world. Within Torres del Paine National Park, this
is the first luxury camp in South
America with a chic collection of glamorous Yurts. Glampers
rejoice!
- There are two U.S. winners this year: Blue Swallow Motel in
Tucumcari, New Mexico, and The
Verb Hotel in Boston.
Planning a family getaway can be difficult enough, so let
Tripadvisor take some of the pressure off hotel selection. The
Best Family-Friendly Hotels hold fun stuff for kids, plus
all the perks for parents.
- No. 1 in the world: Ikos Andalusia in Estepona, Spain.
- No 1. In the U.S.: Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club in
Fort Lauderdale. The resort is
also No. 18 in the world, the only U.S. hotel awarded among the
best in the world.
Great hospitality doesn't always mean massive resorts; sometimes
the best stays are a cozy bed and breakfast, which is why
Tripadvisor awards the Best B&Bs/Inns.
- Last year's favorites reign supreme: The Toulson Court in
Scarborough, United Kingdom takes
the No. 1 spot in the world for the second year in a row, and
Candleberry Inn on Cape Cod is No.
1 in the U.S. once again (also No. 5 in the word).

hospitality and amenities for days.
- No. 1 in the world: Rambagh Palace in India, which is also the No. 1 Top Hotel.
- No. 1 in the U.S. Hotel Emma at Pearl in San Antonio.
Sometimes, Small Hotels make a big impression. Here are
travelers' favorite hotels under 30 rooms:
- No. 1 in the world: White House Hotel in Istanbul, for the second consecutive
year.
- No. 1 in the U.S.: Adobe Grand Villas in Sedona, Arizona
Finally, the Best All-Inclusive Hotels hold
everything you could ever need (and more), all in one place.
