This year’s World’s Best Awards survey closed on March 2, just before widespread stay-at-home orders were implemented as a result of COVID-19. The results reflect our readers’ experiences before the pandemic, but we hope that this year’s honorees will inspire your trips to come — whenever they may be.

When you’re looking for somewhere to stay while traveling there are a lot of important things to consider, like location and amenities. But for most people it’s safe to say the biggest factor is cost or, more specifically, the value of a stay. While not all hotels are priced equally, some give you a lot more bang for your buck in terms of amenities, services provided, perks, in-room surprises, and the little (and big) things that make a property special — and stretch your dollar further.

Every year, for the World’s Best Awards survey, Travel + Leisure asks readers to weigh in on travel experiences around the globe — to share their opinions on the top hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more. Readers rated hotel brands on their locations, rooms/facilities, food, service, and overall value.

For the 2020 awards, our well-traveled readers ranked a number of hotel brands to share the ones they believe offer the best absolute value. In their experience, these brands give guests much more than just a place to rest their heads at night. So, as you plan a future vacation or business trip, consult this list with hotels chains dotting every corner of the Earth to make sure you're milking your stay for everything it’s worth.
