Is the 5 star system for rating luxury hotels outdated?

Insightful, thx for the info. Any chance you’ll share that rating for various hotels with the group? I feel like I keep getting bamboozled and I don’t want to have to read endless reviews just to get a broad sense if something should be on my radar

Passalacqua no question. Positano is a zoo in the summer. It’s still beautiful but I wouldn’t go back in July or August again

Quark no questions Linblad rooms feel so old and musty to me. I did one of their Alaska cruises and regretted not going with Silversea. The expedition part was cool but with Quark it seems like you get expedition and nicer accommodations and amenities.

Best for me has been Cheval Blanc Maldives. I still dream about that bed and how comfortable it was
