The website compiled a list of the "Top 50 Most Romantic Hotels" by aggregating two notable romantic hotel rankings: "Travel + Leisure Worldʼs Best Awards 2018: The Most Romantic Hotels Collection" and "Tripadvisor Travelerʼs Choice 2019: Top 25 Hotels for Romance."

The results from the two lists were added to a scoring system that combined the results of survey results of Big 7 readers and votes cast by a panel of experts from travel media and the hotel industry, the travel site says.

The top 50 list is topped by the Taj Lake Palace in Udaipur, India, followed by the Plaza Athénée in Paris, France, and the Laucala Island Resort on Laucala Island, Fiji.
