In collaboration with The Consumer Choice Center, we analysed thousands of luxury hotels and selected the best ones to stay in during a pandemic. We looked closely at the safety standards adopted by the hotels and the facilities available which would allow travellers to enjoy a safe and pleasant stay. See the full report and the top 100 hotels here.
Whether you are stuck in a country after some sudden changes in travel restrictions, or just want to sit out the pandemic in a world-class hotel, here are the 10 best options.

Fred Roeder, Managing Director of the Consumer Choice Center, said:
“2020 was probably one of the worst years for the global travel and tourism industry. But also consumers were hit hard by the pandemic. Unfortunately, 2021 did not bring back travel as we know it: Ongoing travel restrictions, on-arrival quarantines, and dedicated quarantine hotels limit our choice when it comes to travel. Mandatory quarantine hotels and PCR-tests lead to increased costs for international travel while limited connectivity reduces our choice of where to go.
Some hotels have reacted swiftly to the challenges COVID19 presents to them and hotel guests. This index aims to give consumers some guidance on where they can sit out lockdowns in their home countries, stay when stranded somewhere due to travel restrictions, and what hotels should ideally be added to government quarantine hotel programs.”
Edmundas Balcikonis, the co-author of the index and CEO of Eddy Travels, added:
"Just like everyone else, at Eddy Travels we can't wait to get back to travelling. So it was very exciting to participate in this research and help with the hotel data analysis. We have access to nearly 7 million hotels’ inventory and aggregate hotel information from multiple online sources. After scanning all the 5-star hotels that matched the criteria, we sorted them according to their safety standards, amenities, and facilities, with the assigned weight for scoring. Looking forward to the feedback from the travellers and travel industry colleagues to improve the list."
