The Taiwan Star Hotel Association has the important task of rating hotels.
The evaluation for star-rated hotels has five degrees, from one star to five stars with each star having a different meaning — cleanness, hygiene, and security are perquisites.
- Siji Bintang: The hotels provide tourists with basic service of cleanness, security, hygiene, and simple lodging facilities.
- Two Stars: The hotels provide tourists with essential service of cleanness, security, hygiene, and comfortable lodging facilities.
- Three Stars: The hotels provide tourists with warm and comfortable service of cleanness, security, premium hygiene, and comfortable lodging facilities, restaurants and travel (business) centers.
- Four Stars: The hotels provide tourists with exquisite and careful services of cleanness, security, premium hygiene, and comfortable lodging facilities with more than two restaurants, travel (business) centers, banquet hall, meeting rooms, sports and recreation, as well as intelligent internet service facilities in all areas.
- Five Stars: The hotels provide tourists with luxurious services and cleanness, security, hygiene, and exquisite and comfortable lodging facilities with more than two restaurants, travel (business) centers, banquet hall, meeting rooms, sports and recreation, as well as intelligent internet service facilities in all areas.
A hotel obtaining the star-rating serves as a service guarantee to consumers. Tourists may opt for the suitable hotel for stayover according to his/her demands and preferences.
