Michelin Group’s Director of Gastronomy and Tourism activities Pascal Couasnon explains: “Of the hundreds of thousands of hotels around the world, we have decided to select the few thousand that offer travellers a truly memorable break from their daily routines. These exceptional venues were chosen according to our own criteria and guarantee customers much more than a simple hiatus. Often run by owners with a passion for sharing their local culture, they will all bring guests that extra-special something the minute they drop their bags. These mid- and high-range establishments offer a diversity of styles, as well as the ability to book online across a very wide price range”.

This independent and unique selection is the result of a massive convergence process and the combination of the know-how in curation of Michelin and Tablet, which was acquired by Michelin in 2018. To be included in the selection, the establishments have to offer:

  • excellence in interior design and architecture
  • highly individual, reflecting personality and authenticity
  • quality and consistency in service, comfort, and maintenance
  • a destination unto itself : the hotel contributes to the local experience
  • delivering an extraordinary experience for its price

This selection is the first phase of an ambitious growth strategy and will be updated online and re-evaluated overt time regularly, with feedback from our customers and experts from Michelin and Tablet.

Hotel recommendations are an integral part of the Michelin Guide’s DNA, as illustrated by the earliest editions, published at the beginning of the 1900s, when travellers could consult a list of hand-picked accommodations. A mobility pioneer globally recognized for its restaurant recommendations, Michelin is focused on hotels for the same reason: to offer its users the best in terms of hotels with unique design and personality.

Thanks to this new selection, Michelin continues to satisfy travellers’ sense of curiosity, thirst for discovery, and desire to get off the beaten track.

The selection, with descriptions and photographs that accurately depict the atmosphere of each property, will be available on the TabletHotels website and iOS app, which not only allows direct booking but will enable travelers to benefit from a level of customer service considered to be the gold standard in the world of hospitality.

Professionals affiliated with the listed hotels will gain a showcase of international stature leading to new opportunities thanks to the exposure made possible by this joint independent selection by Michelin and Tablet.
