DTV star classification

Grab the stars! Here we give you tips and information on the requirements of the various star categories and the cost of a classification.

Tourists have different expectations regarding the quality of their accommodation. But whether the family with children prefer the apartment or the comfort-loving couple chooses the luxuriously appointed room in the Winzerhof - one thing all guests want: that their expectations are met, that the price-performance ratio is right.

An important signpost in the variety of offers are the stars of the German Tourism Association DTV for private rooms (up to 8 beds) and apartments. Especially for the region Rheinhessen, which wants to profile itself as a quality brand, the stars of the accommodations are important selling points. The guests value it as nationwide uniform standard, which gives targeted choices and decision support. However, it is not the case that demand is concentrated on the four-star category. Experience shows that there is a demand for all quality levels. Decisive is the participation of the landlord. The category then brings together supply and demand.

The Rheinhessen-Touristik performs the classification as a license partner of the German Tourism Association according to federally uniform criteria.
