Agreed. I would not put IC in the same bucket as Ritz-Carlton, Fairmont or Four Seasons.

OTOH, I would not put JW Marriott with those three either. I would put JW, IC and Grand Hyatt together.

I am surprised they didn't look at St. Regis in the Luxury category, or the Waldorf-Astoria (or Conrad).

EDIT: It seems like the above brands may have been included - only the top five are listed individually.
