Is it because mainline chains have rules and guidelines? I don't mean it facetiously, because Four Seasons and Aman are still chains.

I agree with the service, but I think that is because the hard-product at most high-end places is up to snuff, while the soft product isn't (I don't know why we don't use that term also in hotels, as compared to flights)
