The Better Trip Keeps the Hotel Shortlist Short
An independent hotel guide covering fifty stays across Monaco, Lisbon, Tenerife, Porto and London.
Field notes
Each destination is treated as a ten-hotel edit rather than a ranked directory, with the site assigning distinct roles such as “the icon,” “the grand one” and “the insider one.” Its Better Fit feature uses three questions to select a hotel for the visitor in each covered destination. The page also discloses that booking links may earn Expedia commissions, while stating that hotels cannot pay for inclusion. New destination edits are described as arriving a few times a year.
