Coverage and selection
Fresh Hotel Guide covers new and recently opened hotels, significant renovations and relevant announced openings. Editorial usefulness, freshness, destination relevance and the strength of available information guide selection.
Sources and certainty
For factual opening information, we prefer official hotel, hotel-group, brand or similarly authoritative sources. Confirmed facts are distinguished from announced, provisional or uncertain information, and uncertainty is retained when a schedule has not been confirmed.
Changing schedules
Hotel openings and renovations can be postponed, brought forward or changed in scope. Content is updated when better evidence becomes available rather than assigning unsupported precision to an announcement.
Editorial and commercial relationships
Editorial inclusion and affiliate or other commercial relationships are separate considerations. An affiliate relationship does not automatically determine whether a hotel is included in a guide or article.
Corrections and updates
When stronger evidence contradicts published factual information, we correct or update the relevant content. We aim to preserve the level of certainty supported by the available source rather than present estimates as confirmed facts.
