Voting
Anyone can vote online during the designated voting season.
Judging
Entries are judged at random, without comparison to other entries in a category. Judging is blind. All entrant information is removed from entries to prevent bias/conflict of interest. Judges score on a scale of 1-100, based on the hotel’s luxury experience, excellence, uniqueness, reputation, brand awareness, and personalization. What we most look for is the flair, character and feel of an experience that makes it unique.
Winning Levels
The judges’ evaluation score (50%) and public voting (50%) on the hotel will be submitted to the panel and will form the basis for their decision to confirm the winning status of each hotel. Winners with a score between 85 and 100 points are Regal Winners. Entries with a score between 60 and 84 points are Royal Winners.
Winners and the Gala Awards Ceremony
Winners are determined after the judging is concluded at the end of the voting season, and interim results are then released to the respective hotels. Participants will be invited to attend the Gala Awards Ceremony, where the official winners are announced, also revealing the category and level of the award achieved (Regal Muse / Royal Muse).
