Rounds to France

In France there are no hotels "five stars". The majority of city hotels is located in historical buildings. Numbers small and different in "configuration". In ski resorts of hotels not really there is a lot of, 4 * de luxe — max. category, 80% — apartments and private apartments. Apartments are classified by stars from 2 to 4 *, and also semi-official "suns" (Pier Vacance) and "birdies" (Mayera). Four "stars" — a certain level of apartments, three — very vague gradation (maybe level 4 *, and closer to 2 *). Hotels sometimes underestimate "stardom" — save on taxes.
