    NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2003--

        The Most Diverse Group of Mobil Five-Star Award Winners
                            in Its History
   Mobil Travel Guide Announces Newly Expanded Range of Book Titles

Mobil Travel Guide, an ExxonMobil Travel Publication, and the originator of the authoritative Mobil Star rating program for lodgings and restaurants, announced the 2004 recipients of the prestigious Mobil Five-Star Award to an audience of publishing and media representatives at an October 22 reception at New York's St. Regis Hotel. The well-known ratings are featured in the new 2004 Mobil Travel Guide publications. The list includes a variety of hotels, resorts, and inns, as well as some new restaurants with unique cuisines ranging from "inspired American" to "progressive French."

"We are delighted to celebrate a series of firsts for Mobil Travel Guide," said Lawrence Dustin, president of Mobil Travel Guide. He continued, "Tonight we recognize the best of the best among hotels and restaurants nationwide, including a more diverse group of hotels than ever - and, at the same time, unveil an exciting new publishing program to appeal to a broader, more demanding traveling population."

Announcing the Winners

The 2004 winners of the Mobil Five-Star Award include well-known hotels such as The Broadmoor, the Four Seasons New York, and the Peninsula Beverly Hills, as well as smaller, more intimate lodgings such as the Mayflower Inn in Washington, Connecticut, and Chateau du Sureau in Oakhurst, California. This marks the first time that such a large group of inns and hotels with fewer than 100 rooms were awarded the Mobil Five-Star Award distinction. First-time winners among lodgings include the Woodlands Resort and Inn in Summerville, South Carolina, and The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park. Mobil Travel Guide is pleased to welcome back the Hotel Bel-Air, Los Angeles, to the rank of Mobil Five-Star.

In addition to long-standing Mobil Five-Star Award recipients such as San Francisco's Gary Danko and Chicago's Charlie Trotter's, new restaurants added to the list include The Dining Room at the Ritz-Carlton, San Francisco; Trio in Evanston, Illinois; and the Dining Room at the Woodlands Resort in Summerville, South Carolina.

"The Mobil Five-Star Award indicates that an establishment is one of the best in the country - a leader in the hospitality industry - and is able to provide a consistently superlative level of service, quality, and ambience," said Kenneth P. Cohen, vice president, public affairs, Exxon Mobil Corporation. "We are pleased that this distinctive group is now more diverse than ever before, including a number of outstanding smaller properties whose consistent excellence qualifies them for this sought after rating." General evaluation criteria for each Mobil Star rating level can be found at www.mobiltravelguide.com.

Thirty (30) hotels and thirteen (13) restaurants were awarded the coveted Mobil Five-Star rating. In addition, 138 hotels and 167 restaurants in the United States and Canada received the Mobil Four-Star rating. Both of these ratings represent an outstanding achievement: Mobil Four-Star Award winners are among the top of 2% hotels and restaurants listed by Mobil Travel Guide, and Mobil Five-Star Award winners comprise less than 1% of properties listed by the publication.

Newly Expanded Mobil Travel Guide Publishing Program

In addition to the Mobil Four-Star and Five-Star Award winners, Mobil Travel Guide announced that it has enhanced its classic Regional Travel Planners by adding expanded reviews and more detailed descriptions. Mobil Travel Guide will also be launching brand-new titles for travelers who seek specialized information for customized travel experiences.

Kevin Bristow, vice president of publications at Mobil Travel Guide, said, "Our bold new style and look will appeal to today's traveler while maintaining the integrity and high standards that our longtime customers have come to expect from Mobil Travel Guide." The newly expanded 16 volumes of the Regional Travel Planner series, offered in a distinctive look of bright red and blue, will be available in bookstores nationwide beginning November 2003, at a cost of $18.95 each.

The titles in the Regional Travel Planner series include Northwest, Northern California, Southern California, Southwest, Northern Plains, Great Plains, Texas, Northern Great Lakes, Southern Great Lakes, South, New England, New York, Mid-Atlantic, Coastal Southeast, Florida, and Canada. The new Regional Travel Planners include expanded listings for hotels, restaurants, attractions, and events in established travel destinations, as well as in cities and towns en route. The new, easy-to-use format makes these books even more indispensable for today's travelers.

Also available in November will be Mobil Travel Guide's America's Best Hotels & Restaurants, which highlights the 2004 Mobil Four-Star and Mobil Five-Star Award winners across the U.S. and Canada in a pocket-size guide.

Scheduled to hit bookstores everywhere in early 2004, a series of brand-new City Guides will provide in-depth information about Mobil Star-rated lodging and dining establishments, attractions, and events in major cities, including Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Orlando, San Francisco, and Washington, DC. These easy-to-use books will appeal to travelers looking for more focused information, as well as to residents looking to explore their home city and the surrounding areas.

The 2004 Mobil Travel Guide publications, along with its accompanying website, www.mobiltravelguide.com, provides comprehensive, up-to-date information on more than 19,000 lodging and dining establishments and 20,000 attractions in more than 3,300 cities and towns throughout the United States and Canada. Complete with four-color maps, a compact design, and driving and walking tours, the planners provide a full range of travel options to appeal to a range of tastes and budgets.

New Specialty Travel Publications Unveiled

Mobil Travel Guide also announced that it will launch a new line of specialty books in early 2004, offering special-interest publications to appeal to a wider traveling audience. Titles to watch for include:

America's Best Hotel & Resort Spas - With the popularity of spas exploding, Mobil Travel Guide is responding to consumers' need for reliable, objective spa information.

It offers auto travelers a diverse range of historically and culturally significant American experiences.

On the Road with Your Pet - This book will include a comprehensive list of Mobil Star-rated lodgings across the United States and Canada that welcome pets.
