The Michelin Guide, known for its awards in culinary excellence, recently revealed the latest additions to its list of one, two, and three Key hotels in the nation. Only the second-ever announcement of Michelin Keys in the United States, the list includes 16 three-Key hotels, 70 two-Key hotels, and 207 one-Key hotels. In the Hudson Valley, four of the region’s top hotels have been awarded the distinction of being a one Michelin Key hotel, meaning they are renowned for “very special stays” that are unique in character, personality, and service that goes above and beyond.
