The establishments listed below are part of The MICHELIN Guide's selection of over 6,000 hotels. Each of them has been chosen by our experts for its style, service and unique personality – and each can be booked via The MICHELIN Guide website and app.
Boen Gård, Kristiansand, Norway
From a hospitality perspective, Norway really does have it all: from ultra-minimalist creations in glass and steel to this, an old timber farm and sawmill that traces its earliest roots to the 16th century. Boen Gård’s buildings have been restored, but left in their original, decidedly agricultural style.
Cannúa Lodge, Marinilla, Colombia
Deep-forest eco-lodges have been slow to arrive in Colombia, but Cannúa is the kind of place that’s worth waiting for. Not many hotels can claim access to a hiking trail established by pre-Hispanic indigenous people, nor are they built on a mountainside from bricks crafted on site from the soil of the estate itself.
The Asbury Hotel, Asbury Park, New Jersey, USA
It’s been a long time since Asbury Park was as uncomplicatedly pleasant as it is today, and The Asbury Hotel, a block from the famous boardwalk, aims to weave together the Jersey Shore’s Victorian-era history, its more recent rock-and-roll reputation, and the beachy fun that any seaside town aspires to.
Genji Kyoto, Kyoto, Japan
Hidden away in the neighbourhood of Gojo-Kawaramachi, on the banks of the Kamo River, is Genji Kyoto, a hotel that is, despite its modesty, a hospitality-design tour de force. It’s a modern structure, but is suffused with traditional Japanese elements and unusual cross-cultural gestures.
Palazzo Maria Formosa, Venice, Italy
Palazzo Maria Formosa has an atmosphere that’s thoroughly Venetian, but with an unusual depth of character. It begins with a 15th-century palazzo tucked between the canal and the Santa Maria Formosa square. Heroically preserved, both inside and out, it’s rich with period detail and an authenticity that can’t be faked.
Hôtel des Dunes, Lège-Cap-Ferret, France
Authenticity, simplicity, comfort and elegance; all the elements of the unique atmosphere of Cap Ferret come together in this hotel, whose design pays homage to the oyster shacks typical of the region.
Canyon Ranch Lenox, The Berkshires, Massachusetts, USA
For his second establishment, Mel Zuckerman chose Massachusetts. Here, you are housed in a sumptuous 19th century mansion that was once a Jesuit seminary, but the concept remains the same: an all-inclusive spa resort that goes far beyond your expectations.
North Block, Napa/Sonoma Valleys, California, USA
Yountville, California, has arguably the highest concentration of fine dining restaurants per square mile in all of North America. Choosing a boutique hotel in this city is a guarantee of combining a solid culinary foundation with a well-thought-out wine program and a wellness-focused approach to luxury.
Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay, Marina Square, Singapore
Among the assets of this hotel located in the centre of Singapore are 583 rooms, the largest sky-lit atrium in Southeast Asia, and a surprisingly verdant interior space that soothes travellers upon their arrival.

Vazisubani Estate, Gurjaani Municipality, Georgia
The heritage of this beautifully restored 19th century house lends enormous character to its 19 rooms and suites, which have been redesigned and fitted with a unique collection of antique Victorian-era furniture made in England.
