Does a higher price mean a better hotel?

Mostly yes, but the relationship is logarithmic. Rating doesn't rise with price, it rises with every doubling of price: going from $100 to $200 buys you about as much extra quality as going from $400 to $800. On raw dollars the correlation is ~0; on log price it's 0.41.

Median rating by nightly price

Even $50 price bins, median rating per bin. The curve flattens fast: most of the quality gain happens before ~$400. Hover a bar for the hotel count and the middle-50% rating range, which stays wide in every bin, so price predicts the typical hotel, not any specific one.

Correlation between log price and rating within the city, for cities with 100+ priced hotels. Near 1: the expensive hotels really are the good ones. Near 0: price tells you almost nothing, so pick by rating, not by rate.

Region definitions

Primary regions come from Nomads.com's continent mapping, minus the catch-all 'Asia' card (split into South East / East / South / Central Asia below). Other sub-regions (Southern Europe, Western Europe, Caribbean) are overlaid on top of their parent — a country appears in both its parent and its sub-region card, so sub-region totals don't subtract from the parent.
