For hotels

Best Mountain Hotels is an independent guide for travellers who choose carefully. Our readers are couples and families planning their next escape to the mountains, for skiing, summer, wellness or a once-in-a-lifetime stay. They come to us because every hotel on the site has been chosen by our editors.

Membership lets selected hotels tell their story in more depth and reach those travellers more often, through the site, our newsletter, Instagram and Pinterest.

How membership works

Our membership has five tiers, named after ski runs: Green, Blue, Red, Black and Double Black Diamond.

Green is a free, permanent listing for every hotel that meets our editorial standard.

Blue, Red, Black and Double Black Diamond are annual memberships. Each adds more to your hotel profile, such as more words, photography, video and a direct booking link. They also add more visibility, including priority listing in your destination and travel-type sections, newsletter features, sponsored social campaigns and homepage placements.

Double Black Diamond also includes a first-person editorial review, written by one of our editors after a minimum three-night fully hosted stay.

Every paid placement comes with guaranteed views, and members receive regular performance reports.

Our editorial standard

Membership can’t buy a place on Best Mountain Hotels. Every hotel must first be selected by our editors, and membership never changes our selection or what we write in our reviews. Priority placements and sponsored content are always clearly labelled.
