May 21, 2008

I’m proud to be introducing three new features to my Something To Talk About blog: Stat of the Day, List of the Day and Factoid of the Day. To kick things off, I offer this List of the Day for Wednesday, May 21:

Travel + Leisure Names World’s 10 Best Hotels For Service 2008

And they are: 
 
1. Milestone Hotel, London
2. Mandarin Oriental, Munich
3. Woodlands Resort & Inn, Summerville, South Carolina
4. Amanpuri, Phuket 
5. The Oriental, Bangkok
6. Sweetwaters Tented Camp, Sweetwaters Game Reserve, Kenya
7. Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc, Cap d’Antibes, France
8. Oberoi Udaivilas, Udaipur, India
9. Mombo Camp, Moremi Game Reserve, Botswana
10. Château Les Crayères, Reims, France

What's one quick takeaway from the list? Europe has 4 of the top 10 best hotels for service, while Asia has 3, Africa has 2 (who knew game reserves could compete on the basis of service?) and the Unites States has just 1.

Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Hotels for Service 2008 are based on data from the publication's World’s Best Awards 2007 readers’ survey. For survey methodology, visit www.travelandleisure.com/worldsbest.
