VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Understatement is not usually the first idea that comes to mind in
Macau, a place where bigger is better and less is only more if you’re counting your losses at the casino. And yet, Zi Yat Heen, the superb Chinese restaurant in the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star
Four Seasons Hotel Macao, Cotai Strip, seems to understand that luxury lives in the little details.
Of course, there’s no shortage of grandeur here. Arriving at the restaurant requires a trip through the ornate Italianate lobby of the hotel.
Still, dining here feels like a welcome retreat from the hubbub. Greetings are warm, and service is anticipatory and personalized. Guests’ names are remembered, tea never goes cold and messy plates are replaced unobtrusively.
Well-spaced tables are organized around a glass case that breaks up the room into more intimate sections while drawing attention to one of the restaurants proudest features: a wine list with over 1,000 references.
