How the quiet score works
Every nearby noise source is weighted by type, by how far it is from The Scott, and by how often it's actually loud — a stadium or helipad counts far less than a motorway that never stops. The score is an estimate of the surroundings, not a decibel measurement, and it can't know which way your room faces or how well it's soundproofed. It's calibrated relative to the hotels we track, so treat it as a comparison tool and use the map above to judge the details yourself.
