ABOUT THE MICHELIN GUIDE HOTEL SELECTION
The Michelin Guide’s hotel selection is based on the work of its inspectors, who travel anonymously and independently to identify hotels offering outstanding experiences. The selection spans a wide range of properties, from historic landmarks and grand hotels to independent boutiques, remote retreats and innovative new openings. The Michelin Key is the hotel distinction awarded by the Michelin Guide, equivalent to the Michelin Star for restaurants. Introduced in 2024 across 15 destinations in North America, Europe and Asia, the Michelin Key has since expanded into a global distinction. Hotels are awarded One, Two or Three MICHELIN Keys, according to the level of experience they offer: – One MICHELIN Key: A very special stay. – Two MICHELIN Keys: An exceptional stay. – Three MICHELIN Keys: An extraordinary stay.
