Think of this as a "Carlsbad Hotel Of The Month" contest. Except here, a jury didn't get to choose who gets what. This time, we allowed all the 113,670 people living in Carlsbad to be jurors by picking up various signals they created, including reviews, online & offline sentiment metrics, citations, Google search result rankings, links between websites, brand mentions, social media activity, and more.

Essentially, this competition celebrates the love for hospitality and the passion for providing comfortable stays to travelers and making them feel welcome and cared for. We discovered and reviewed all 51 hotels in Carlsbad, then shortlisted 13 (full-service/boutique/budget/luxury/resort hotels, wellness retreats, inns, etc.). Finally, we ranked them based on their room comfort, cleanliness, amenities and facilities, customer satisfaction, service quality, parking options, and value for money.
