According to Alberto Castellucchio of HotelsCombined, the Stellar Stays awards are in recognition of accommodation providers that consistently achieve the highest standards of customer satisfaction worldwide.

“The team here at HotelsCombined undertook the largest analysis of customer opinions online across millions of points of data,” said Alberto. “The hotels are ranked out of a potential score of 10 – making a score of 9.0 or higher quite a feat and we congratulate all the hotels that were awarded a Stellar Stays this year.”

In receiving the news they had topped the list nationally, Rob and Di Conneeley, hosts of Riveresque for the past 15 years commented: “It is a great honour to be included in the Stellar Stays award. We have endeavoured to provide a unique, tranquil and peaceful space for guests and believe that it is important to treat those that stay with us with respect and to be available to cater for their needs, and provide them with special touches like fresh flowers, candles and breakfast goodies to enjoy.”

Winners were selected using strict criteria such as the quality and consistency of reviews, the absence of recurring or unsolved issues with costumers, popularity of the hotel and of course, the overall resulting score of nine or higher.
