Here is a list of Hotels classified by the Minister of Tourism in Haiti for 2014.

The Ministry of Tourism and Creative Industries (MTCI) has decided to publish the complete results of the classification of hotels in Haiti in order to inform the traveling public of the quality of the services to expect before booking

As of November 1, the Ministry of Tourism has delivered scutcheons to classified hotels, including the 5 which have earned 5-hibiscus status. These include Haiti El Rancho, Best Western Premier, The Inn at Villa Bambou, Karibe Convention Center, and Hotel Royal Oasis (a total of 441 rooms).

The currently classified establishments make up a 51% majority of all hotel rooms in the country. As well as the hotel criteria, hotels must be in good standing with the DGI to be eligible for classification. So far, only 177 hotels out of 525 in the country meet the Ministry of Tourism standards for classification on the hibiscus scale; however, since the program began over a year and a half ago, more than 4,000 rooms in 456 establishments have been classified under it.

Here is the Hotels classified in Haiti for 2014. The Ministry of Tourism (MDT) launched its classification program of tourist establishments to improve the quality of services provided by the hotel facilities.

Tourism has become big business in Haiti on the heels of the government's "Open for Business" campaign. It was therefore no surprise the attention paid to the country's hotel industry, including the reclassification exercise undertaken throughout 2014, making it impossible for the industry to ever be the same again. Putting a decidedly piquant, Haitian feel on the world-wide five-star standard, the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Industries (MTCI) has reclassified the country's hotels labelling them on a hibiscus scale that mirrors the more traditional star scale.

The project started in 2013 with the city of Les Cayes having its tourist destinations classified under the program. The government deployed 21 trained officers to inspect and classify these hotels and establishments from 1 hibiscus (same as 1 star, the minimum of quality) to 5 hibiscus (same as 5 star, the maximum of quality).
