The best hotels with Michelin-starred restaurants 

Not the only Waldorf Astoria hotel in this list, the Trianon Palace Versailles is both a gift to French hospitality and a testament to its cuisine. If the hotel’s location – right next door to the Palace of Versailles – and its 1907 neoclassic architecture aren’t enough to win you over, then Gordon Ramsay’s Au Trianon kitchen just might be, where a blend of baroque and modern French cuisine comes prepared and served beside an impeccable wine list to meet all your 5-star needs. No, Gordon is not French, but it’s easy to forgive him as one of the world’s top chefs with most Michelin stars ever known. Elsewhere in Trianon Palace Versailles, enjoy a sun-kissed breakfast on La Véranda and an afternoon tea at Bar Galeria, before retreating to Spa Guerlain for a treatment or two.

With foodie priorities laid out in its name, the Atrio Restaurante Hotel flips the script by putting its food above all else, with lodging a secondary – though still exceptional – measure. Atrio – the Spanish for atrium – is also a central element of this restaurant hotel, allowing the owners to create a culinary landmark in the centre of Cáceres, harking back to traditional Mediterranean architecture and Iberian family lifestyles. More than its setting, the Atrio Restaurante Hotel has earnt not one but two Michelin stars, thanks to its flavourful and technical cuisine sourced from the region’s finest ingredients (Iberian pork, seafood and paprika) and all paired with wines from its vast wine cellar.

Though Lisbon Michelin star restaurants are more in number, it’s Porto hotel The Yeatman that we can’t stop raving about, a frequent mention on our tours of the best wine hotels throughout Portugal and the world at large. The Yeatman also happens to be one of the best hotels with Michelin starred restaurants found anywhere. Boasting two Michelin stars, in fact, The Yeatman Gastronomic Restaurant is an attraction in itself, thanks to its gourmet take on Portuguese classics, made using the freshest seafood and paired to perfection with speciality wines, some of which have legacies dating back to 2000BC. Enjoy a meal overlooking the Douro River in the UNESCO-listed medieval town of Porto, booking a tasting session to sample wines from the 25,000 bottle cellar.

One of the more iconic hotels on this list is Marina Bay Sands which dominates Singapore’s entire skyline with the world’s largest rooftop infinity pool raised some 207 metres into the sky atop three futuristic skyscrapers. Based in Singapore’s most central and expensive areas, Marina Bay Sands has a whopping 2,561 rooms, convention centre, museum, skating rink, casino and two large theatres, but the reason we come is to try any of its 10 celebrity-run restaurants. Managing to simultaneously outdo Gordon Ramsey, Wolfgang Puck and Mario Batali all at once however is the two-Michelin-starred chef at Waku Ghin, Tetsuya Wakuda, who serves up Japanese-European fusion fare to perfection.

Whoever said English food was rubbish certainly had never set foot in Cumbria’s Cottage In The Wood, a Michelin star UK kitchen-cum-lodging enfolded in woodland, 10 minutes from Keswick. All the dishes prepared by chef Ben Wilkinson are put together from the locally sourced larder, with elderberry, monkfish and venison heavily featured. Dine in the sun-dappled conservatory looking out at the wildlife of Whinlatter Forest, walking to Bassenthwaite Lake and Lorton Vale if the feeling takes you. On return to the house for a kip, you’ll notice that the traditional 17^th-century architecture of slate roofing and black beam trims actually gives way to plush contemporary interiors.

A legendary Berlin property hosting its own two-Michelin-starred restaurant is Hotel Adlon Kempinski, a 1907 lodging with a prestigious former guest list that includes Kaiser Wilhelm II, Charlie Chaplin and even Einstein. Since its heyday the hotel has been rebuilt and demolished more than once, today standing as a symbol of reunification between East and West Berlin in the Mitte commercial centre. Come for the 5-star facilities as well as the European haute cuisine from the masterful hands of chef Hendrik Otto, dining in view of the iconic Brandenburg Gate, just one of the many landmarks in the area.

Not one, not two but three Michelin stars decorate the triumph that is Hotel Akelarre, a property reigning upon the coastal hills just outside Spain’s San Sebastián and overlooking the Bay of Biscay. As well as its sea-view setting, Hotel Akelarre’s modernist design concept melds with black marble, pale oak and filitia stone interiors to provide the perfect environment to enhance chef Pedro Subijana’s cutting-edge gastronomy. Come for Subijana’s magical plays on traditional Basque cuisine, choosing from three tasting menus while snacking on gorgeous tapas appetizers and sampling wines from the 650-bottle wine cellar.

The penultimate mention on our list of best hotels with Michelin starred restaurants is the Relais & Châteaux-associated Villa Crespi, a Moorish-style palace set on the shores of Lake Orta. An hour from Milan, the eccentric Villa Crespi is well worth the journey, allowing guests to live in 19^th-century luxury, in the style of the nobles, rulers and poets who once resided here. If that illustrious history wasn’t enough, then the property’s two-star Michelin restaurant operated by chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo just might be, where a Mediterranean gourmet menu comes paired with the finest Italian and international wines.
