"For the second year in a row, a Bay Area hotel has taken the top spot for best hotel in the world. On Tuesday, Conde Nast Traveler released its annual Readers' Choice Awards, recognizing the best travel destinations in the world. After receiving 757,109 votes, readers named the Lodge at Bodega Bay the best hotel in the world - beating out contenders in Morocco, Istanbul and New York."
""To be voted as the best hotel in the world by readers of Condé Nast Traveler for the second year in a row is an extraordinary honor. As a family-owned and operated hotel, we take great pride in the craft of authentic hospitality, and this recognition means so much to us," The Lodge at Bodega Bay said on its social media."
"The Conde Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award winners were chosen through a survey that received over 757,000 responses between April 1 and June 30 of this year. Candidates were judged on a set of criteria on a five-point scale - excellent, very good, good, fair and poor. To be eligible for the top 50, candidates had to receive a minimum number of votes and a minimum overall score, after which they were ranked."
The Lodge at Bodega Bay was named the best hotel in the world for a second consecutive year after receiving 757,109 votes. The Sonoma Coast property features secluded beaches, nearby vineyards, a fireside lounge with Pacific Ocean views, in-room Jacuzzis, ocean shell massages at the spa, and an on-site restaurant, Drakes Sonoma Coast, known for its French toast breakfast. Rooms now start at $399 and increase during busy seasons. California hotels comprised 14 percent of the Condé Nast Traveler top 50. Winners were selected via a survey conducted April 1–June 30 and judged on a five-point scale.
