How we pick the three

Budget is the lowest eligible reference rate. Best Value balances price and guest score. Luxury prioritises five-star hotels; if none qualify, a four-star rated 8.5+ is labelled as an upscale alternative. Every pick shows its source, review count and the date we checked it. This is a data-based shortlist, not a paid ranking.
