What is a Michelin Key?
As of 2024, the Michelin Guide no longer focuses solely on the world’s finest restaurants. It now also celebrates the very best hotels with a new benchmark for excellence: the Michelin Key.
This award highlights hotels that stand out for their hospitality, distinctive character, architectural design, sense of place, and the quality of the overall guest experience.
