                        Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
 
                        2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
                        3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
                        4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
                        5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

                        Gary Danko boasts the most tableside dazzle in town, including tea service, caviar service, cheese cart and flambéed desserts. The décor is theatrical with large paintings, dim lighting, and a bathroom so large and luxurious it’s practically a spa.
But it’s not all looks and no substance: The tea is rare and steeped to perfection; and the cheeses are a kaleidoscope of different styles, animals and continents. The wine list may read like a dictionary, but your smart and very friendly server will happily guide you through it. The food is a blend of California, French and Mediterranean.
