Zannier Hotels Phum Baitang \u2014 Siem Reap, Cambodia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The hardest thing for any hotel to achieve is consistently perfect post-stay ratings from our guests. So far, these hotels have done it the most.<\/h4>\n

There are over 5,000 hotels in our selection, but only a small handful have received nothing but perfect post-stay ratings from Tablet guests. And that makes sense. No matter how fancy a hotel is, someone will soon find a reason to knock it down a peg. In fact, you could argue that the more luxurious a hotel is \u2014 the more it promises and the more money it charges \u2014 the less likely it is to meet everyone\u2019s expectations every time.<\/p>\n

And so, just based on human nature alone, a \u201cperfect\u201d score is a somewhat temporary condition. It’s only a matter of time. But as long as some hotels are still perfect in our clients’ eyes, we\u2019ll still shine a light on them. We’re pleased to reveal the 2023 Immaculate Collection<\/em>, the ten most-booked hotels on Tablet that still have a flawless guest feedback score (20 out of 20). Can they remain in this exclusive club through 2024? We can’t wait to find out.<\/p>\n

Corte della Maest\u00e0<\/a><\/h2>\n
Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy<\/h5>\n

\"Corte<\/a><\/p>\n

The hilltop village of Civita di Bagnoregio is a vision so magnificent that you\u2019ll have a hard time believing that Italians once nicknamed the place \u201cthe dying city.\u201d But when an earthquake struck in 1685, residents fled. Centuries later, an Italian psychologist and his wife bought the old seminary and transformed it into a fantastically charming guesthouse called Corte della Maest\u00e0.<\/p>\n

Villa le Prata – Residenza del Vescovo<\/a><\/h2>\n
Montalcino, Italy<\/h5>\n

\"Villa<\/a><\/p>\n

Tuscany’s Montalcino is famous for the walled hilltop city, its idyllic surroundings, and the region\u2019s coveted sangiovese grosso wines. And to that list of attractions you can add at least one extraordinary hotel. Villa le Prata \u2013 Residenza del Vescovo is a scant five minutes\u2019 drive from the city walls, and it\u2019s as pure an introduction to the delights of Tuscan countryside living as you could possibly ask for.<\/p>\n

The Aster<\/a><\/h2>\n
Los Angeles, California, USA<\/h5>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The Aster is, before anything else, a private club. The obvious way in is to become a member \u2014 but the Aster\u2019s 35 suites are open to overnight guests as well, and it\u2019s perhaps no surprise that they\u2019re up there with the finest suites in town \u2014 a bit bohemian, a bit retro, more than a bit warm and welcoming, understated in their luxury and, above all, memorable.<\/p>\n

Domaine des \u00c9tangs<\/a><\/h2>\n
Massignac, France<\/h5>\n

\"Domaine<\/a><\/p>\n

To the extent that there is such a thing as the \u201ctypical\u201d castle hotel, Domaine des Etangs is a departure. Rather than shoehorn a dozen modern hotel rooms into a medieval floor plan, architect Isabelle Stanislas has done something slightly more clever, locating the guest rooms not within the picturesque ch\u00e2teau but scattered about the estate in separate farmhouse buildings.<\/p>\n

La Sultana Oualidia<\/a><\/h2>\n
Oualidia, Morocco<\/h5>\n

\"La<\/a><\/p>\n

This fishing village of Oualidia is where Marrakchis go when the tourist season hits, and it\u2019s where you\u2019ll find La Sultana. The style is, in a way, exactly what you\u2019d expect from a classic Moroccan seaside resort \u2014 stone, tadelakt, antique furnishings and original artworks. Colors are soft and sunny, and sunlight and space are both in plentiful supply.<\/p>\n

Akelarre<\/a><\/h2>\n
San Sebasti\u00e1n, Spain<\/h5>\n

\"Akelarre\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a familiar enough concept in France and even in England, yet for all the distinction of Spain\u2019s high-end restaurant scene, a luxury boutique hotel devoted to a single chef is still something of a novelty here. Just west of Monte Igueldo is where you\u2019ll find Akelarre, a stunning piece of modern architecture which adds 22 luxurious hotel rooms and a full-service spa to Pedro Subijana\u2019s legendary restaurant.<\/p>\n

BE Jardin Escondido by Coppola<\/a><\/h2>\n
Buenos Aires, Argentina<\/h5>\n

\"BE<\/a><\/p>\n

Jardin Escondido isn\u2019t just another boutique hotel in Buenos Aires. It\u2019s Francis Ford Coppola\u2019s boutique hotel in Buenos Aires. The legendary film director reportedly fell in love with the Argentinian capital while shooting the film Tetro<\/em> in 2008, when he lived and worked in the spacious townhouse that\u2019s now known as Jardin Escondido.<\/p>\n

Residenza B<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"Residenza<\/a><\/p>\n

Residenza B\u2019s name isn\u2019t just making a claim about the small size of the place, but about its atmosphere as well \u2014 this discreet little four-room bolthole is nothing if not residential in aspect. And a remarkably stylish little residence it is, as well. Here architect Stefano Dorata has turned a 19th-century building into something quite modern \u2014 which, in Rome, means there are plenty of echoes of the past.<\/p>\n

Menorca, Spain<\/h5>\n

\"Torralbenc\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Torralbenc is built from the bones of an old farm, lovingly restored where it needs to be restored \u2014 things like stylish modern bedrooms and bathrooms and that gorgeous saltwater infinity pool are, needless to say, contemporary additions \u2014 and meticulously preserved where the old ways will do: the rough walls of stacked stone and the age-old gardens surrounding the terraces strike an unmistakably rustic note.<\/p>\n

Zannier Hotels Phum Baitang<\/a><\/h2>\n
Siem Reap, Cambodia<\/h5>\n

\"Zannier<\/a><\/p>\n

Once upon a time, Siem Reap was a village. A village strategically positioned as the gateway to Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world, mind you, but a village nonetheless, a far cry from the bustling resort destination it is today. So it makes sense that one new hotel, the 45-villa Phum Baitang, would aim to recreate the simple charm of village life, set just outside of town.<\/p>\n
