The world first hotel Crescent Rating system was launched in 2008. Now the rating has been expanded to cover other services such as holiday packages, restaurants, spas, theme parks etc.
Hotels are rated based on the services and facilities that they provide, catering to the needs of Halal-conscious travellers. The Crescent Rating system rates overall Halal (Muslim) friendliness of on a scale of one to seven, with seven being the highest rating.
The service ratings are separated into four different areas; Halal food facilities, Salaath (prayer) facilities, services during Ramadan, and level of non-Halal activities in the hotel and additional Halal-friendly recreational facilities.
