The Leading Hotels of the World (LHW), is proud to recognize more than 220 member hotels awarded in the MICHELIN Keys Awards 2025.

Hotels could achieve one MICHELIN Key: for a very special stay, Two MICHELIN Keys: for an exceptional stay or Three MICHELIN Keys: for an extraordinary stay.

“We’re proud to see more than 220 of our member hotels recognized with MICHELIN Keys this year,” said Shannon Knapp, President & CEO, The Leading Hotels of the World. “The Key distinction celebrates hotels that offer more than great service.
