The company now vets hotels in 42 countries by sending anonymous inspectors for two-night stays, during which they assess the hotel against a set of up to 890 standards, which Amanda Frasier, Forbes Travel Guide's Senior Vice President of Ratings, says are always evolving. The mys- tery guests then send their reports to corporate headquarters, where a proprietary algorithm—heavily weighted toward service at a surprising 75 percent, with facilities contributing 25 percent—is used to determine the star rating. "Which is not to say that the facility is not important, since the facility is what qualifies you to be evaluated in the first place," Frasier says. Adds Inzerillo, "Emotional connectivity is not derived by the square footage of a bathroom. What people remember is, Was I looked after? Did I feel comfortable? Was I entertained?" Though Steve Wynn's many stars now stretch from Las Vegas to Macau, he might say his operating philoso- phy was solidified in Reno, Nevada, in 1973. "I made a reservation at the Harrah's on Virginia Street, a down- town hotel in Reno that's bare-bones," he recalls, which was then owned by its founder, Bill Harrah. "And when I pulled up my rental car to the curb, it felt like pulling up to the Plaza." A young man greeted him immediately, giving him a phone number to call at any time, and a front desk attendant welcomed him by name and told him that his room had been upgraded.
