A trio of prestigious hotels have just been awarded the AAA Diamond Program’s Five Diamonds distinction, cementing their reputations as leading in luxury hospitality. Namely, the Waldorf Astoria Chicago; The Setai, Miami Beach; and Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco.
These properties provide the highest levels of service, comfort and refinement, offering their guests opulent surroundings and unmatched experiences. In addition to these standout hotels, more than a dozen other properties have joined the ranks of AAA Four Diamond establishments this month, a category that recognizes upscale amenities and exceptional fine dining.
AAA’s Diamond Program Inspectors conduct thorough surprise assessments of hotels and restaurants throughout North America, the Caribbean and Costa Rica. These properties are evaluated based on the “4 Cs” of Cleanliness, Comfort, Cuisine and Consistency. Earning a Five Diamond rating is a testament to a property’s commitment to maintaining the very highest standards of luxury and hospitality.
Some restaurants also received fresh recognition this month, with establishments like Bistro Napa in Reno, Nevada; The Bazaar by José Andrés in Washington, D.C.; Manzanita in Truckee, California; and Essence Restaurant + Bar in Elkhart, Indiana earning AAA Four Diamond distinctions.
