The measure
Small by recorded room count
For this index, we count a listed hotel as small when our stored data records 50 rooms or fewer. Hotels without a room count are excluded rather than estimated.
The index compares our curated collection, not the complete hotel supply of each city. A high count shows depth in our collection; a high share shows how strongly smaller properties feature among hotels with known room counts.

Methodology
How to read the index
Known data only
Missing room counts are excluded from both the numerator and denominator. We do not infer hotel size from branding, photography or reviews.
A consistent threshold
The 50-room limit matches the small-hotel collections used throughout this site. The same rule applies to every city.
Size is not service quality
Room count describes scale. It does not prove that a hotel is independent, luxurious or more personal than a larger property.
Collection coverage varies
Results reflect hotels included in our current collection. Use the linked city pages to compare location, facilities, ratings and current booking details.
