Every single MICHELIN Guide hotel is eligible. Over the last four years, our selection team of passionate, independent experts vetted, scrutinized, and ultimately determined more than 5,000 remarkable hotels for inclusion in our collection. Each has been selected for its remarkable quality. Out of these thousands of hotels, those offering the most outstanding stays will be awarded the special MICHELIN Key distinction.
​
Starting in 2024, MICHELIN Keys will be announced in batches by country. On Monday, April 8th, the MICHELIN Guide will begin with the announcement of the list of Keys in France.
​
A few of our next Key selections include: Italy, Spain, select locations in the United States (Atlanta, California, Chicago, Colorado, Florida, New York and Washington DC), and Japan.
