Panda Travel Star Rating System
The hotel star rating system represents the general quality of each hotel available on this website. The hotel detail pages will describe each hotel and let you know what to expect in each hotel class. Star ratings do not necessarily reflect all the amenities or services that might be available at a hotel, and some amenities and features may not be available in every room or at every property with a particular star rating. Half-Star ratings provide additional flexibility to provide accurate ratings with hotels which may have a greater array of features and amenities within each class.
