With the most Five-Star designations for the eleventh year, Four Seasons continues to elevate its luxury hospitality leadership through unparalleled service, genuine care and exceptional quality

TORONTO, Feb. 12, 2026 /CNW/ -- As Four Seasons marks its 65^th year, continued recognition from Forbes Travel Guide reinforces the company's undisputed leadership in luxury hospitality. For the eleventh consecutive year, Four Seasons holds the most Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rankings of any company, with 62 distinctions across 42 hotels and resorts, 16 spas, and 4 restaurants.

"Service excellence and genuine care have long defined Four Seasons legacy and remain at the core of our guest experience," says Alejandro Reynal, President and Chief Executive Officer, Four Seasons. "This incredible industry recognition is a testament to the dedication of our people and the enduring strength of our culture. Their unwavering commitment to the timeless values that have shaped Four Seasons throughout the past 65 years will continue to guide us in the years ahead."

Now operating in 47 countries with approximately 60 projects under development, Four Seasons offers a diverse portfolio of exceptional experiences, each distinctly connected to its destination while offering the company's legendary service. With nearly 60,000 colleagues guided by an enduring culture of service, the brand's greatest competitive advantage remains its people, who uphold consistency, quality and care at every touchpoint. Together, they continue to honour the legacy of Four Seasons while setting the stage for new luxury hospitality experiences to take shape on land, at sea and beyond.

Representing steadfast commitments to hospitality excellence, Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace Budapest, Four Seasons Resort Bali at Jimbaran Bay, Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan, Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel, and the spas at Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach, and Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills (A Four Seasons Hotel) all celebrate 10 consecutive years of holding the Five-Star designation from Forbes Travel Guide.

Highlights of this year's rankings include The Pearl Spa and Wellness at Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi at Al Maryah Island, which has been recognized by Forbes Travel Guide for the first time with the coveted Five-Star ranking. The 21,500 square foot (1,997 square metre) sanctuary occupying the Hotel's entire third floor is designed to nurture every aspect of well-being. From restorative experiences, private fitness sessions, and finishing touches at the salon, each experience draws from the expertise of its highly skilled team of practitioners, therapists, instructors and stylists. 

Building on its longstanding celebration of hotels, restaurants, and spas, Forbes Travel Guide complements these rankings with Employee of the Year awards to acknowledge individuals who go above and beyond for their teams while also delivering exceptional moments for guests. With winners to be announced on February 26, 2026 at The Summit by Forbes Travel Guide, Blanca López Giménez, Reservations Agent at Four Seasons Resort Mallorca at Formentor, was named among this year's finalists, selected from hundreds of nominations submitted by hotels around the world. First opened as Hotel Formentor in 1929 before becoming a Four Seasons experience in the summer of 2024, the Resort continues to act as a luxury retreat that showcases heartfelt service and the passion of Spanish hospitality across 100 acres (40 hectares) of forested land, crystal-clear waters, and 110 rooms on the Formentor Peninsula.
