Hotel Ratings

Please note that every country employs independent regulations for their hotel rating systems. The rating of each hotel is based on each country’s independent criteria, and are not rated by Travac Tours.

Star ratings are not based on your room or meals. Ratings, as per industry standards, are based on the amenities the hotel offers.

Canadian standards are higher than those of many other countries. For example, where a hotel rates a 4* at European standards, it could be considered a 3* by Canadian standards.

All hotel links on our website come directly from each hotel. Please give our office a call should you have questions regarding hotels and hotel ratings on a tour you are looking to book
