     The Good Hotel Guide

The Good Hotel Guide is the leading independent guide to hotels in Great Britain and Ireland. It is written for the reader seeking impartial advice on finding a good place to stay. Hotels cannot buy their entry as they do in most rival guides. No money changes hands, and the editors and inspectors do not accept free hospitality on their anonymous visits to hotels. An entry in the printed Guide is free, but we do charge for a website entry to cover research and administration costs.

​

Adam & Caroline Raphael, who own the Good Hotel Guide, are award-winning journalists.

Ian Belcher, a distinguished travel writer, edits the British Guide.

Niki Davies, a co-editor, is responsible for the Shortlist and readers’ correspondence.

WHAT MEDIA SAY

WHAT HOTELS SAY
