Why Hotelstars Union classification is your trusted guide

When selecting a hotel, relying on subjective reviews or self-assessments from booking platforms can be confusing and unreliable. The Hotelstars Union provides the only official classification system, offering transparent and standardised information about a hotel's facilities and services. Unlike guest ratings, which can vary based on individual perspectives and are not always comparable, the Hotelstars Union ensures consistent and accurate details of what to expect—whether it involves essential amenities or premium luxuries.

Can you truly distinguish between a standard hotel and a luxury hotel if both receive perfect satisfaction scores? With the official classification from the Hotelstars Union, there is no doubt. It is the only reliable system that guarantees transparency and confidence for every booking.

Learn more about the Hotelstars Union

Beyond stars: The Hotelstars Union provides certified quality and a harmonised classification system.

Transparency

The classification is based on objective criteria that are defined for each star category. The criteria for each star category are made publicly available. Guests can therefore find out in detail which services and facilities are required for a particular classification.

International comparability

The stars provide a quick overview of the quality and facilities of the hotel. This allows travellers to compare establishments across national borders and search specifically for establishments that meet their personal requirements. 

Quality assurance

Each Hotelstars Union classification has a limited period of validity. In this way, the system protects against false promises and ensures that the stars awarded correspond to the actual performance. The regular inspections guarantee a consistently high standard in classified establishments. 
 

Large variety of hotels

The Hotelstars Union classifies a wide range of accommodations far beyond the classic hotel. Small family businesses, classic chain hotels, individual boutique hotels and many other variations of the colourful world of the hotel industry are spread across five different categories. 

Confidence in booking

Independent classification commissions carry out each Hotelstars Union classification. This ensures an objective and independent assessment of the existing standards. In the event of dissatisfaction, all countries have a transparent complaints management system.
