Frequently Asked Questions
While the difference between four and five-star hotels is a subtle one and varies by destination, in most cases a five-star hotel is awarded an extra star because it ticks all the boxes when it comes to facilities. That said, hotels in both categories offer an exceptional level of service.
Luxury extras vary from one hotel to the next, from pillow menus and bedroom upgrades, to complimentary spa treatments and butler service on the beach. Plus, we often throw in free nights so you can eek out your holiday a little longer.
