Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure

How GetLyStar Is Funded

GetLyStar is an independent editorial website. Our content is produced by a dedicated team of writers and editors. We maintain editorial independence in all of our reviews. We do not accept money in exchange for positive reviews, and our editorial ratings reflect the genuine assessment of our team.

The Site is funded through a combination of advertising and affiliate marketing relationships. This funding model allows us to keep all editorial content freely accessible to our readers.

Affiliate Relationships

Some hotels and booking platforms on our Site are affiliate partners. This means that if you click on an affiliate link and subsequently make a booking or purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links are typically used when we link to an official hotel website or a booking platform.

Affiliate commissions help us cover the costs of running this website, including research, hosting and staffing. We select affiliate partners based on the quality and relevance of their offerings. Our affiliation does not influence our editorial assessments in any way.

Paid Placements

In some cases, properties may pay for sponsored or featured placements on our Site. All paid placements are clearly labelled as "Sponsored", "Advertisement" or similar designation. Paid placement never guarantees a positive review. Our review scores are wholly independent.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial team operates independently of our commercial relationships. Advertising and affiliate partnerships do not influence our reviews or ratings. We maintain a strict editorial firewall between the commercial and editorial sides of our operation. However, to remain honest, we do not claim absolute commercial independence. We operate with transparent commercial relationships that are fully disclosed to you on this page.

External Links

When we link to external websites, such as an official hotel website or booking platform, you may be redirected to a third-party site. We do not control the content or practices of these external sites. We recommend checking the terms, privacy policies and refund policies of any third-party website you visit.

Our Review Integrity

Every review published on GetLyStar is based on thorough research and factual analysis. We clearly identify any information that is unverified. We never publish artificial scores, invented guest reviews or fabricated awards. If you believe a review is inaccurate, we encourage you to use our complaint form to alert us.

Update Frequency

We periodically review and update the information on our website to ensure accuracy. Information on properties, including prices and amenities, can change frequently. We recommend that visitors verify current details directly with the property before making a booking.
