How we check

Four steps. Lodging lens only.

1 — Shortlist resort hotels where adult evening halls may sit on the same town map.

2 — Read arrival, bedroom, quiet, breakfast and nearby walks from public notes.

3 — Order by the night; gaming floors weigh nothing.

4 — Revisit when wings refit or brands shift.
