- **Business Traveller Awards 2026 Winner – Best Luxury Hotel Brand in the World**

By maintaining an approach that is both global and local, Four Seasons has built one of the world’s most recognisable luxury hotel brands.

With 130-plus hotels and resorts across 47 countries, it offers the kind of details that elevate the hotel stay into something unforgettable: a designer-purse-lending closet in Houston; a songwriting experience in Nashville; observatory stargazing in Lanai.

That impact is scaled globally – as at the George V, in Paris, where guests can enjoy reserved seating and exclusive access to the Paris Opera, or a “manta phone” in the Maldives that alerts guests when marine life is nearby.

> Effortless service, impeccable design and curated experiences are hallmarks of the Four Seasons brand

[Four Seasons](https://www.businesstraveller.com/tried-tested/hotel-review-four-seasons-madrid/) also continues to invest heavily in its properties, ensuring its hotels remain as polished and relevant as the service. This year, Four Seasons Resort Maui has undergone a stunning multimillion-dollar transformation, the largest in its 36-year history.

It’s all in a day’s work for Four Seasons: this brand manages to make luxury feel both highly considered and absolutely seamless.
