Browse by location:
ASIA + THE MIDDLE EAST
Key hotels and Star restaurants in some of Asia and the Middle East’s most popular cities, plus one countryside gem.
Mainland China
Top Pick: Rissai Valley (Three Keys) with Cai Lin Xuan (One Star)
Traditional villas tucked away in the Chinese countryside would make a compelling enough case for a visit, but the setting within a UNESCO World Heritage Site seals the concept. The Ritz-Carlton Reserve is wrapped in views of the Minshan mountains: Expect occasional yak sightings, along with 24/7 butler service, through which guests can secure a table at One MICHELIN-Starred Cai Lin Xuan.
Here, Chef Li presents a Cantonese menu built on seasonal ingredients — including the standout wok-fried prawns with fermented black garlic and dried chiles.
Hong Kong
Top Pick: Rosewood Hong Kong (Three Keys) with The Legacy House (One Star) and Chaat (One Star)
In a 65-story skyscraper on the Kowloon waterfront framing the city’s endless skyline, the Rosewood is a meeting of old-world glamour and modern luxury, where generously sized rooms feature water views and bathrooms are appointed in marble.
Of the eight restaurants, a pair earned One MICHELIN Star: The Legacy House serves Shun Tak dishes made with local seafood, while Chaat offers reimagined Indian cuisine in a vibrant setting.
Japan
Top Pick: Palace Hotel Tokyo (Three Keys) with ESTERRE by Alain Ducasse (One Star) and Chugoku Hanten Kohakukyu (Selected)
If your dream is to stay near the Imperial Palace, then Palace Hotel Tokyo is your ideal option. The five-star experience includes ESTERRE by Alain Ducasse, where Chef Kei Kojima turns fresh market finds into One-Star masterpieces. Chugoku Hanten Kohakukyu, another Guide selection, is known for its Peking duck, dim sum and artistic takes on Chinese seafood dishes.
The Palace Hotel Tokyo edges ahead of the competition, but find more excellent hotel and restaurant pairings at the Bvlgari Hotel and Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo, each with its own One-Star restaurant.
Macau
Top Pick: City of Dreams – Morpheus (Two Keys) with Alain Ducasse at Morpheus (Two Stars)
It’s impossible not to stop and stare at Zaha Hadid’s striking masterpiece in Cotai, where an intricate pattern of crisscrossed beams covers an undulating facade. Morpheus is equally remarkable inside: Clean lines and oversized windows define the interiors, plus custom furniture that blends with curved walls. With Chef Alain Ducasse himself presiding over the kitchen, an unforgettable six-course menu is served beneath glass sculptures and a chandelier made of 600 hand-cut crystals.
Thailand
Top Pick: Mandarin Oriental Bangkok (Three Keys) with Anne-Sophie Pic At Le Normandie (Two Stars)
Bangkok’s most storied hotel remains as glamorous as when it opened 150 years ago, now pairing its original Victorian-style mansion with two modern wings. The riverbank location allows Mandarin Oriental guests to enjoy a spectacular stay on one side of the Chao Phraya River and an exquisite meal on the other. Two-Star Le Normandie by Anne-Sophie Pic offers delicate French dishes with sweeping views, including her reimagined Lobster Dashi with Red Fruits.
United Arab Emirates
Top Pick: Atlantis The Royal (Three Keys) with Dinner by Heston Blumenthal (One Star), La Mar by Gastón Acurio (Selected), estiatorio Milos (Selected), Ariana’s Persian Kitchen (Selected)
The Atlantis stands out among Dubai’s skyline, while its restaurants — including a Star and three MICHELIN selections — represent one of the world’s densest MICHELIN food scenes in a single hotel. The hotel is the pinnacle of opulence at every turn, and all rooms offer views nearly as spectacular as those at the sky-high infinity pool.
Meanwhile, among 17 restaurants, the standouts are the One-Star Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, with its reimagining of centuries-old British dishes, and the three MICHELIN-selected options known for their global flavors: seafood-forward Peruvian at La Mar by Gastón Acurio, Greek classics at estiatorio Milos and vibrant Persian fare at Chef Ariana Bundy’s Ariana’s Persian Kitchen.
Vietnam
Top Pick: Capella Hanoi (Three Keys) with Hibana by Koki (One Star)
Conceived as a tribute to the nearby opera house, Capella Hanoi is a masterful blend of 1920s elegance and Art Deco glamour, with a maximalist style that extends to the experience itself: The hotel is renowned for highly personalized service and thoughtful touches, like afternoon tea and live evening music. In the basement, a chic 14-seat counter serves as Chef Hiroshi Yamaguchi’s stage for complex teppanyaki dishes cooked on large iron griddles, using ingredients flown in fortnightly from Japan.
EUROPE
The best hotels with the best restaurants in France, Italy, the United Kingdom and eight more countries across the Continent.
Belgium
Top Pick: Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp (Two Keys) with Fine Fleur (One Star), Hertog Jan (Two Stars) and Bar Bulot (Selected)
Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp, from its perch within the city’s botanical gardens, blends its monastic foundations with modern luxury suites. The grounds and architecture are a wonder, but the foodie standouts are overwhelming.
At Two-Star Hertog Jan, find the work of Chef Gert De Mangeleer — think melted foie gras, red beetroot and pigeon gravy with fermented garlic. At One-Star Fine Fleur, chefs personally present inspired wine-food pairings. And at the cosmopolitan Bar Bulot, find timeless classics with a modern twist.
France
Top Pick: La Réserve Paris (Three Keys) with Le Gabriel (Three Stars)
Located just off the Champs-Élysées in a stately 19th-century Haussmannian building, La Réserve Paris is among the city’s most celebrated hotels. Its exquisite, luxurious interiors were remade by Jacques Garcia to match the opulence of a place with rooms and suites so lavish they feel like private residences. Each comes complete with marble baths and individual butler service.
On the ground floor, you’ll find Three MICHELIN Star Le Gabriel, where Chef Jérôme Banctel offers two special tasting menus: Virée, celebrating flavors from his hometown in Brittany, and Périple, a medley of tastes from around the world. His cooking style combines rich sauces with delicate flavors, creating memorable dishes like ginger-spiced carrots and artichokes in cherry blossom vinegar.
Germany
Top Picks: A Three-Way Tie
Germany’s north and south are both represented at the top of the selection. In Hamburg, Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten sits on the Inner Alster Lake, setting the city’s luxury standard since the late 1800s. On site is Three-Star Restaurant Haerlin, its sophisticated cuisine including dishes like saddle of venison with speck, beetroot, balsamic cherries and smoked pistachio cream.
In the Black Forest, two more hotels offer distinct escapes: At Hotel Bareiss, meander from pool to sauna to Three-Star Restaurant Bareiss for classic French fare with international touches like lobster dumplings with watermelon and chile. Hotel Traube Tonbach takes a modern approach with sleek spa amenities and Three-Star Schwarzwaldstube, where French tasting menus showcase premium ingredients behind floor-to-ceiling glass.
Greece
Top Pick: Astir Palace (Three Keys) with Pelagos (One Star)
Astir Palace looks like it was lifted from a 1960s travel magazine. Carved into the rocky coast of the Athens Riviera, it’s among the world’s best examples of style and luxury. This sprawling ultraluxury beach resort sits just half an hour from the Acropolis, but tucked into a pine-covered peninsula surrounded by the sparkling Aegean, it feels secluded.
You’ll find the same sweeping sea views on the spacious terrace of One-Star Pelagos, where Chef Luca Piscazzi blends Italian and French flavors through both à la carte options and multicourse tasting menus.
Ireland
Top Pick: Adare Manor (Three Keys) with The Oak Room (One Star)
Adare Manor, a neo-Gothic mansion once home to the Earl of Dunraven, sits on 840 acres of manicured gardens and parkland just under three hours from Dublin. Among the estate’s amenities are the championship golf course (set to host the 2027 Ryder Cup), world-class spa, horseback riding, falconry and the One MICHELIN Star Oak Room.
The crown jewel of the manor, its dining room offers grand views of the grounds, while guests enjoy simple, refined dishes crafted from the best local ingredients.
Italy
Top Pick: Castiglion del Bosco (Three Keys) with Campo del Drago (Two Stars)
The intimate hotel portion of Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco is just the tip of the bucolic iceberg of this Three-Key Tuscan standout. In total, the property is more than 5,000 acres of an intact 900-year-old agricultural estate, where wine is actively produced and lands are preserved for grape growing and forests.
The rest has been sensitively formed into a community of sandstone villas, and the restaurant, Campo del Drago, is where Chef Mattea Temperini serves some of the most interesting and creative dishes in the region. Many are prepared using vegetables from the hotel’s own kitchen garden.
Monaco
Top Pick: Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo (Three Keys) with Le Grill (One Star) and Le Louis XV – Alain Ducasse (Three Stars)
Perhaps it came as no surprise when Monaco’s most iconic hotel received MICHELIN’s highest hotel distinction. The location, next to Casino de Monte-Carlo, is perfect, and the hotel’s shining interiors match the opulence of its bay views.
Here you’ll find four MICHELIN Stars across two restaurants. Start with rooftop fare at Chef Dominique Lory’s One-Star Le Grill, then experience Le Louis XV on the ground floor. Alain Ducasse’s first-ever Three-Star restaurant has been serving captivating Mediterranean cuisine for over 30 years.
Netherlands
Top Pick: De L’Europe Amsterdam (Three Keys) with Flore (Two Stars) and Marie (Bib Gourmand)
The grande dame of the Amstel River has maintained a timeless, luxurious air since its opening in 1896 — albeit today with an updated modern flair. Velvet curtains and crystal chandeliers meet smart technology in today’s iteration, while Two-Star restaurant Flore offers a largely plant-based fine dining experience, where Chef Bas van Kranen’s menu pairs a perfectly grilled brook trout with barbecued leeks and smoked trout roe with house-pickled berries.
Riverfront brasserie Marie draws guests with its coveted terrace seating and dishes like salt-baked sea bass and classic beef tartare.
Portugal
Top Pick: Vila Vita Parc (Three Keys) with Ocean (Two Stars) and Atlântico (Selected)
Vila Vita Parc has set the standard for luxurious getaways to the Algarve for over two decades. The views are splendid — the hotel unfolds along the cliff’s rocky edge and overlooks emerald and turquoise waters below — and crisp, white interiors evoke a sense of seaside calm.
Of the 10 restaurants on site, Ocean’s creative plates (like the scarlet prawn, Kampot pepper and seaweed dish) stand out with One MICHELIN Star, while Atlântico’s modern twist on Mediterranean, including a five-course tasting menu, comes as an additional Guide selection. Both restaurants boast sweeping views of the Atlantic.
Spain
Top Pick: Atrio Restaurante Hotel (Three Keys) with Atrio (Three Stars)
As the name may suggest, the Three-MICHELIN-Star Atrio is an inextricable part of the Atrio Restaurante Hotel. Here, in Spain’s western region of Extremadura, you’ll stay in one of 14 modern rooms wonderfully integrated into the historic stone building amongst the cobblestone streets.
Admire the hotel’s original artworks by Andy Warhol and Georg Baselitz until mealtime, when you’ll find yourself squarely in the heart of Spain’s culinary wonderland. It’s here the famous black-footed pigs roam oak forests before becoming prized jamón Ibérico, and where you’ll find exquisite dishes like frog leg-stuffed tomatoes and truffle pâté en croûte.
Switzerland
Top Pick: Grand Resort Bad Ragaz (Three Keys) with Sven Wassmer Memories (Three Stars), IGNIV by Andreas Caminada (Two Stars) and Verve by Sven (One Star)
A hotel with Three Keys, and within, restaurants with six total Stars: This is not by any means typical, but the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz is no typical resort. Dating back to 1868, it’s the pinnacle of the Swiss mountain spa concept, with its ornate bathing hall fed by natural hot springs and treatments including everything from massage to medical care.
Its restaurants are a complete food scene in themselves. Honest, bold cuisine thrives at Sven Wassmer Memories, an innovative shared dining experience by celebrated Chef Andreas Caminada reigns at IGNIV and nature-inspired dishes showcasing seasonal, regional produce stand out at Verve by Sven.
United Kingdom
Top Pick: The Connaught (Three Keys) with Hélène Darroze at The Connaught (Three Stars)
One of London’s most prestigious hotels, The Connaught began in 1815. It’s a hotel that has evolved steadily from a style reminiscent of the traditional pomp of a country house to the pinnacle of modern luxury, all without losing its dash of historic charm. Along with impeccable service, guests can look forward to a meal at Three-Star restaurant Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, where the seasonal menu is served by a knowledgeable team in a formal, wood-paneled setting.
North America
A single ryokan-inspired farm retreat in California wine country.
United States
Top Pick: SingleThread Inn (Three Keys) with SingleThread Restaurant (Three Stars)
SingleThread Inn is just five rooms in the little downtown of Healdsburg, one of the main cities in California’s Napa wine region. The inn is under the same guidance as the restaurant, both helmed by the internationally acclaimed Chef Kyle Connaughton and his wife Katina, who also run a nearby farm from which they source much of the fare for their renowned Japanese-influenced restaurant.
Their mastery of donabe, clay pot cooking, transforms both seafood and vegetables into extraordinary dishes that blend wine country abundance with a Japanese sensibility. Head here for an in-depth take on this very special spot.
