Since 1988, Fodor’s Travel has been awarding the annual Fodor’s Choice distinction to the very top hotels, restaurants and attractions around the world—those that offer travelers a not-to-be-missed experience and a value that transcends their price range. These choices represent only the best 15% of the thousands of hotels, restaurants and attractions Fodor’s writers and editors experience, examine, and evaluate every year.

For the first time ever, Fodor’s has narrowed the field even further and selected one hundred Fodor’s Choice Gold Award winners.

For a full review of each hotel and description of why it was chosen, visit Fodors.com at http://www.fodors.com/fodors-choice/gold-awards/2010/.
