  1. Named for the 360-foot artesian well buried under the hotel's foundations, this cocktail bar at The Langham is all rattlesnake-leather floors, silver-leaf walls, and timber chandeliers, a David Collins interior that reads more cabinet of curiosities than hotel drinking room. The drinks match the room's ambition. It holds a Pinnacle Guide pin and a five-star rating from Difford's Guide, which is about as serious as cocktail credentials get.

    Three honors, in evidence:

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country: how people there rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, and what they breathe. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
