Five pillars, each scored 0–100, weighted per the published methodology. Each pillar is labeled Computed or Editorial above, per venue: Value and Guest Experience convert to a 50/50 blend of the editorial base and the computed input as live rate data and verified guest ratings land; Group Readiness is editorial, anchored to the property facts shown above; Setting and Dining & Wellness are editorial judgments against published criteria. Every change lands in the append-only readings ledger below, and venues may submit verified data for the next edition. No venue pays to be ranked.
