How we score, and the rules that govern our work, are published separately: see the methodology for how the rubric is applied, the Premium Standard for what the scale measures, and the corrections log for every material correction we have made. Editorial enquiries go to editorial@premiumtravelreview.com; corrections to corrections@premiumtravelreview.com; questions about the published standard to standards@premiumtravelreview.com.

Premium Travel Review publishes under a single house byline — the Premium Travel Review desk — rather than under the names of individual critics. This is deliberate, and it follows the tradition of publications that score products against a fixed standard rather than build personal critic brands around them. A scored review is the output of a method: a fixed rubric, anonymous visits where possible, externally verified facts, and a verdict that any competent reviewer applying the same standard should reach. Attaching a celebrity name to that output would imply the verdict is a matter of one person's taste. It is not. It is the publication's judgement, issued under the publication's method.

The practical consequence is accountability without personality. Bedford Row Press Ltd — the publishing entity — stands behind every verdict, every score, and every comparison grid that appears under this masthead. There is no individual critic to court, to flatter, or to lobby; there is only the standard and the entity that publishes it. When a verdict is wrong, the publication corrects it and logs the correction. When a verdict is right, the credit belongs to the method, not to a byline.

Some of what defines Premium Travel Review is what it deliberately lacks. We think it is worth stating plainly, because each absence is a choice that protects the independence of the verdict.

• No named star critics. We publish under one house byline. There is no marquee reviewer whose personal taste substitutes for the standard.
• No press trips, save narrow disclosed exceptions. We pay public rates for what we review. The only departures are the labelled exceptions described in our editorial standards, and they cap the verdict we will issue from them.
• No affiliate links. We take no commission on a booking, a bottle, or a charter. Nothing we link to pays us when you click it.
• No sponsored content. No advertorial, no native advertising, no pay-for-placement. If it carries this masthead, it is our independent judgement.
• No comment section. Corrections and disputes are handled in writing, on the record, through corrections@premiumtravelreview.com and logged where warranted — not in an unmoderated thread.
• No print edition. Premium Travel Review is published digitally; there is no print product to subsidise with advertising.
• No newsletter list sold to advertisers. We do not rent, sell, or trade reader contact details to advertisers or anyone else.

Taken together, these absences describe a publication built to issue one thing reliably: an independent, scored verdict that a reader can trust because they can see exactly what does — and does not — sit behind it.
