A total of 58 hotels across Thailand have been awarded the Michelin Key, a newly introduced accolade recognizing facilities that offer "outstanding experiences."

Among the recipients, eight hotels, including the Mandarin Oriental and The Siam, earned the highest honor of three Michelin Keys, the Michelin Guide announced.

19 hotels were awarded two Michelin Keys, while 31 received one Michelin Key.

These establishments were selected by anonymous Michelin inspectors who evaluated each hotel's offerings, service, and guest experience.

The Michelin Key awards are categorized similarly to the Michelin stars for restaurants.

Hotels with one Michelin Key offer a unique, personalized stay with exceptional value. Those awarded two Michelin Keys are recognized for providing an impressive experience with a distinct identity and strong connection to local culture. Hotels with three Michelin Keys deliver an unforgettable, luxurious experience, setting a new benchmark for hospitality.

The Michelin Guide plans to expand the Michelin Key awards to other countries, with upcoming announcements for the U.K., Ireland, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

The Michelin Key awards were first introduced in France earlier this year, with Japan being the first country in Asia to receive the Michelin Key list.
