Five hotels in the Philippines debuted in The Guide’s first Global MICHELIN Keys Selection, a list honoring 2,457 hotels worldwide for “truly outstanding stays.”
Namely, these are Fairmont Makati and Raffles Makati in Metro Manila, Amanpulo on Pamalican Island, Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort in Cebu, and Nay Palad Hideaway Siargao in General Luna.
The said Philippine hotels were each awarded One MICHELIN Key, distinguished as hotels with “a very special stay with character and exceptional service.”
According to The MICHELIN Guide, MICHELIN Keys are awarded based on five universal criteria that evaluate the overall hospitality experience rather than individual amenities.
Up to Three MICHELIN Keys may be awarded to a destination for “an extraordinary stay offering the pinnacle of comfort, service, and design.”
Travelers can book directly with personalized travel expert services on the MICHELIN Guide website and app, which feature all of the platform’s hotel recommendations.
“Just as MICHELIN Stars celebrate the world’s most exceptional restaurants, MICHELIN Keys now honor hotels that offer truly remarkable stays, where design, service, and location come together to create unforgettable moments,” The MICHELIN Guide international director Gwendal Poullennec said.
