Last week Michelin Guide announced the latest hotels to be awarded One, Two, or Three Keys in the US. Michelin Keys are the hotel equivalent to Michelin Stars–with Three Keys being the best of the best. This is only the second time the Michelin Guide has awarded keys to US hotels.
There are now over 100 hotels in the US that have been awards Michelin Keys, and our team has stayed at lots of them already and we wanted to share what we really think of them!
Three Keys
Canyon Ranch Woodside – California
“A true escape in nature. The Canyon Ranch Woodside hotel is surrounded by towering red woods and the tree house rooms are truly special. The health, wellness and spiritual offerings make this one of our favorite wellness retreats.” – Katie McAleer
Two Keys
Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero – California
“Four Seasons at its best, classic, clean, fresh and reliable—all in the perfect location!” – JQ Louise
Faena Hotel Miami Beach – Florida
“Cool, funky and a must in Miami, when you want to feel like you are in the know even if you aren’t.” – JQ Louise
The Setai Miami Beach – Florida
“Go to dinner at Jaya and enjoy the entertainment all night long.” – JQ Louise
Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach – Florida
“This is what family vacation dreams were made of. From the cute décor, the gorgeous pools and the miles of beach, bring the whole family you are in for a treat.” – JQ Louise
Raffles Boston – Massachusetts
“The best thing to happen to Boston in a long time. The spa, dining, service and rooms are all world class.” – JQ Louise
The Langham Boston – Massachusetts
“After a well-deserved renovation during the COVID years, the Langham is the best of Boston in the best way—old meets new.” – JQ Louise
The Newbury Boston – Massachusetts
“My favorite boutique hotel around! The Newbury is so chic and continues to amaze! Book a stay this winter in a fireplace suite when you are in the mood for some romance.” – JQ Louise
The Whitney Hotel Boston – Massachusetts
“I love the restaurant in the lobby, it is a hidden gem on Beacon Hill!” – JQ Louise
TOURISTS – Massachusetts
“This is one of those places that is so unexpectedly delightful, you will want to come back next season when you visit TOURISTS!” – JQ Louise
Four Seasons One Dalton – Massachusetts
“One of my favorite stays in Boston. They’re dog friendly, walking distance to tons of great attractions and they have great dining options right on site.” – Katie McAleer
Canyon Ranch Lenox – Massachusetts
“Gilded age mansion meets wellness retreat! This place has so much to offer, but I really love their metaphysical offerings. Try a sound healing or get an astrology reading.” – Katie McAleer
Castle Hill Inn and Resort – Rhode Island
“New England dreams are made at Castle Hill Inn. Each room is a little different and you just feel like you are at your wealthy grandma’s estate in the best possible way.” – JQ Louise
The Chanler at Cliff Walk – Rhode Island
“Even if you can’t swing a stay at the Chanler, book a table for dinner, the view and the menu is top notch. Treat yourself to a little bit of Europe—it is straight out of the old world!” – JQ Louise
One Key
Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North – Arizona
“This place is so so, so beautiful! The desert landscape makes this resort feel like an oasis. Lounging by the pool drinking a prickly pear smoothie is what I imagine heaven to be like.” – Katie McAleer
The Breakers – Florida
“This is one of those must try places, if you are new to Palm Beach, the Breakers has to be on your list.” – JQ Louise
Camden Harbour Inn – Maine
“This was the first place I went when the COVID restrictions were lessened, and I will always have fond memories of Camden.” – JQ Louise
Four Seasons Hotel Boston – Massachusetts
“Everyone’s favorite for a different reason, although we all still miss the Bristol Lounge.” – JQ Louise
Mandarin Oriental Boston – Massachusetts
“Another shining light in the Boston hospitality scene, the MO brings a little international flair to the Back Bay, and it is my favorite place during Marathon Weekend.” – JQ Louise
Nobnocket Boutique Inn – Massachusetts
“The Nobnocket is cozy and cute and very Martha’s Vineyard. But be sure to bring your car to get around!” – JQ Louise
The Inn at Hastings Park – Massachusetts
“I love it here in the Fall—a true delight.” – JQ Louise
The Wauwinet – Massachusetts
“I say stay at the White Elephant and dine at the Wauwinet or vice versa at least once a summer! We all deserve a little bit of Nantucket’s finest!” – JQ Louise
The Peninsula New York – New York
“I once paid $1000 for the last room at the Peninsula NYC at midnight after my flight was cancelled and never have I enjoyed a sleep in a nice bed more—highly recommend.” – JQ Louise
The Rittenhouse Hotel – Pennsylvania
“Philly never gets that much credit, but everyone should take a girls trip to Philly a few times in their twenties, it is a blast and stay at the Rittenhouse.” – JQ Louise
Pendry Park City – Utah
“Steps from the slopes and they have a ton of great restaurants right on site. Après-ing at their roof top pool, which is heated year-round, was so much fun!” – Katie McAleer
