To us, luxury is nothing without service. And not just good service, but great service. More and more today, the label luxury is too loosely applied to hotels that are anything but when measured by the service yardstick. We've been to many swanky and trendy hotels that may have gotten the aesthetics right but fail miserably when providing their guests with quality service. Nothing ruins a hotel stay more than a bunch of pretentious model types who are working at a hotel in between acting gigs.
If you're a first-class traveler and expect first-class service, check out this article on msnbc.com that lists the World's top 15 hotels for service. The list comprises an eclectic mix of hotels in 13 different countries. If you have any recommendations on hotels with excellent service or have any horror stories regarding a supposed luxury hotel, go ahead and post a comment.

Totally agree with this. Too many hotels out there do the minimum work to reach the luxury levels put out by rating services. But in reality, only a handful of the overall amount of hotels are really worthy of being defined in the luxury sector.
Our site, Perfect Escapes, has taken on this challenge for the past 2 years. So any hotel on the site can be guaranteed to be of this luxury level. They have all been hand-selected and picked by our in-house travel experts. And we continuously modify the listings as we get feedback from our customers and visitors - if a hotel slips or falls behind, it comes off the site.
Happy travels
