Calamandrana, Italy
A Michelin Selected relais in Calamandrana, set among the vine-covered hills of Monferrato in Piedmont. The property represents the quieter, agrarian tier of Italian countryside hospitality, where the surrounding landscape and local materials shape the guest experience as much as any amenity. For those travelling through the Asti wine zone, it provides a grounded, regionally specific base.
Verona, Italy
Set within the courtyard that gave Juliet her balcony, Relais Balcone di Giulietta places guests at Via Cappello 23 — one of Verona's most visited addresses. The property holds a Michelin Selected designation for 2025, positioning it within the city's small tier of character-led stays that trade on literary heritage and architectural intimacy rather than scale.
Ragusa Ibla, Italy
A Michelin Selected property set in the Sicilian countryside outside Ragusa Ibla, Relais Chiaramonte occupies a rural position on the SP81 that keeps it removed from the historic centre's pedestrian pace. The property sits within a category of agriturismo-adjacent retreats that trade urban proximity for landscape immersion, placing it alongside Eremo della Giubiliana and Tenuta Cammarana as a counterpoint to the district's in-town boutique hotels.
Camaiore, Italy
A Michelin Selected relais in the Versilian hills above Camaiore, Relais Corte Rodeschi occupies a restored stone courtyard property that sits between the Lucchesia plain and the Apuan Alps. The address places guests within easy reach of Lucca, the Versilia coast, and the hiking trails of the surrounding hills, while the property itself represents the quieter, agrarian end of Tuscan hospitality.
Portoscuso, Italy
Sitting in the small cove of La Caletta on the coast of Sardinia, the adults-only La Ghinghetta takes its name from a nearby cliff and lighthouse just a short swim away. Its private location places it right by sea, in fact there’s a small beach just outside, and the fabulous sea views from the seven bright guest rooms are highlighted by an immaculate all white palette and balconies that look onto the water below. The rooftop solarium and bar are open only to guests and friends, making the view of the Mediterranean a rather exclusive one, and activities on offer include boat rides, deep sea fishing, horse riding and local tours.
Sovicille, Italy
A Michelin Selected relais in the Sienese hills outside Sovicille, Le Macine di Stigliano occupies a restored mill complex where the architecture does most of the talking. Stone walls, water channels, and the quiet rhythms of the surrounding Tuscan countryside define the experience more than any single amenity. For travellers who want proximity to Siena without the city's tourist density, it occupies a distinct position in the regional property set.
Bossolasco, Italy
A MICHELIN Selected relais in the Alta Langa hill town of Bossolasco, Relais Le due Matote sits at the edge of Piedmont's truffle and Barolo country, where the architecture speaks in the vernacular of old Langa farmsteads rather than the language of resort hospitality. For travellers bypassing the region's larger properties, it represents a quieter, more rooted alternative to the valley-floor hotel circuit.
Manderen, France
Michelin Selected for 2025, Relais Manderen sits at 15 Rue du Château in the village of Manderen, deep in the Moselle borderlands where Lorraine meets Luxembourg and Germany. The property occupies a position in the Michelin hotel selection that places it among France's editorially recognised smaller stays — a useful anchor for travellers crossing the Schengen triangle who want a grounded, locally embedded base rather than a chain transit hotel.
Viagrande, Italy
Selected by the Michelin Guide Hotels 2025, Relais San Giuliano sits in Viagrande, a quiet hillside comune on the eastern slopes of Mount Etna. The property occupies a historic Sicilian address on Via Giuseppe Garibaldi, placing guests inside the volcanic interior rather than the coastal tourist circuit. For those oriented toward landscape, architecture, and agricultural tradition, this is a considered base.
Bolgheri, Italy
The property sits close to the cypress-lined Viale dei Cipressi and within reach of the Sassicaia and Ornellaia estates, placing guests in one of Tuscany's most concentrated premium wine territories without the infrastructure of a larger hotel.
Florence, Italy
A former aristocratic residence on Via Ghibellina in Florence's historic center, Relais Santa Croce occupies one of the city's more considered address decisions: close to the Basilica di Santa Croce, well inside the medieval core, and far enough from the mass tourist corridors to feel genuinely residential. Its wine program carries a Star Wine List 2026 recognition, placing it in a measurable tier among Florence's hotel wine offerings.
Martina Franca, Italy
Carried in the 2025 Michelin Selected Hotels list, Relais Villa San Martino occupies a converted villa on the edge of Martina Franca, the Baroque hill town at the heart of the Valle d'Itria. The property sits within the design-led relais tradition that defines Puglia's premium accommodation tier, where architecture and agricultural landscape work together as the primary offering.
Sant'Agnello, Italy
A Michelin Selected property on Corso Marion Crawford in Sant'Agnello, Relais Villa Savarese sits within the quieter residential fringe of the Sorrentine Peninsula, where nineteenth-century villa architecture and terraced gardens position it distinctly against the coastal resort hotels further toward Sorrento's centre. It holds a place in the 2025 Michelin Hotels & Stays selection, signalling verified quality at the accommodation level without the volume-driven identity of larger Amalfi Coast operators.
Puerto Natales, Chile
Remota Patagonia Lodge sits along Ruta 9 Norte just outside Puerto Natales, where the steppe opens toward the Last Hope Sound.

Florence, Italy
Residence Hilda occupies a narrow palazzo on Via dei Servi, one of Florence's most considered addresses for visitors who prefer apartment-style autonomy over hotel formality. Selected by the Michelin Guide Hotels 2025, it positions itself within a tier of Florentine accommodation that trades lobby spectacle for spatial generosity and quieter, more personal service rhythms.
Rome, Italy
Residenza B’s name isn’t just making a claim about the small size of the place, but about its atmosphere as well, this discreet little four-room bolthole is nothing if not residential in aspect. And a remarkably stylish little residence it is, as well. Here architect Stefano Dorata has turned a 19th-century building into something quite modern, which, in Rome, means there are plenty of echoes of the past, in the form of classic travertine marble in the bathrooms as well as vintage and retro-inspired furniture alongside modernist classics and contemporary Italian-designed pieces. The location is central but not touristy, thanks to the fact that its near neighbors are the Quirinale (the presidential palace) and the Palazzo Barberini, home to the national gallery. The atmosphere inside is remarkably tranquil, and while the rooms are relatively compact, this is still central Rome, after all, they’re plenty spacious enough, and feel even more so thanks to their uncluttered design and simple palette of whites and warm neutrals. There’s a fine breakfast and a daytime tea service, as well as a capable concierge, but not much else, then again there’s nothing you can’t find within a few minutes’ walk from the hotel.
Rome, Italy
A historic residence on Via della Fontanella di Borghese, steps from the Pantheon and Piazza Navona, Residenza Napoleone III occupies a palazzo in one of Rome's most architecturally dense neighbourhoods. The property sits in the smaller, character-led tier of Roman accommodation, where the building's history and location do more work than branded amenities. It draws guests who return for the address as much as the rooms.
Salamanca, Spain
Resotel Salamanca sits on Paseo de las Delicias and holds a place in the Michelin Selected Hotels 2025 list, positioning it within a tier of recognised accommodation in a city better known for its sandstone UNESCO heritage than its hotel stock. For travellers who want a base with independent editorial credibility rather than a palace conversion, it represents a practical and vetted option in the Castilian capital of learning.
Chaudes-Aigues, France
A two-Michelin-star restaurant occupying a listed medieval castle in the volcanic uplands of Cantal, Restaurant Serge Vieira pairs contemporary cooking with 360-degree panoramic views and a Relais & Châteaux pedigree. The setting alone separates it from France's mainstream fine-dining circuit: this is destination dining at serious altitude, rated 4.7/5 across 450 reviews and recognised with a Michelin Green Star in 2025.
Santa Comba, Spain
A Michelin Selected rural wellness retreat in the Galician interior, Retiro Costiña Wellness & Villas occupies a restored rural setting outside Santa Comba, roughly an hour from Santiago de Compostela. The villa format and wellness focus place it in a small tier of design-led rural escapes that operate outside the urban luxury circuit, drawing guests who want Galicia without the pilgrim-trail crowds.
Ipswich, United Kingdom
A Michelin Selected retreat set on a working farm outside Ipswich, Retreat East occupies converted agricultural buildings in Suffolk's quiet countryside. The property sits within the smaller tier of design-led rural escapes that prioritise setting and space over resort scale, placing it alongside the county's growing reputation for considered, low-key hospitality.
Reykjavík, Iceland
Reykjavik Residence Apartment Hotel occupies a central address on Vatnsstígur in the 101 postal district, placing guests within walking distance of the old harbour, Laugavegur, and the city's principal cultural sites.

Zakopane, Poland
Rezydencja Nosalowy Dwór holds a Michelin Selected distinction in the 2025 Michelin Hotels guide, placing it among a small tier of Polish mountain properties recognised for accommodation quality.

Oswalda Balzera in Zakopane, it sits within reach of the Tatra foothills and the town's main resort infrastructure, making it a credible base for travellers who want recognised standards in Poland's most visited highland destination.
Sopot, Poland
A Michelin Selected MGallery property on Sopot's historic Plac Konstytucji 3 Maja, Rezydent occupies a pre-war building whose architectural presence sets it apart from the Tri-City coast's newer resort hotels. The central address puts the Molo, Monte Cassino, and rail connections to Gdańsk within walking distance. Design-led, historically grounded, and operating above the mid-market resort tier.
Brockenhurst, United Kingdom
A Victorian Gothic manor in the heart of the New Forest, Rhinefield House carries Michelin Selected status for 2025 and a architectural presence that sets it apart from the region's country house competition. The building's elaborate stonework, oak-panelled halls, and forest setting place it in a tier of historic English hotel that rewards guests who arrive for the atmosphere as much as the accommodation.
Boone, United States
Rhode's Motor Lodge on Blowing Rock Road sits at the intersection of Appalachian roadside heritage and the contemporary movement toward character-driven, independent accommodation.

North West Province, South Africa
Rhulani Safari Lodge sits inside Madikwe Game Reserve in South Africa's North West Province, a malaria-free wilderness that positions it differently from Kruger-adjacent competitors. The lodge holds a Global Winner award for Luxury Bush Lodge, placing it in a narrow tier of properties where spatial design, wildlife access, and low-key intimacy matter more than resort scale.
Marrakech, Morocco

Marrakech, Morocco
Riad Al Moussika occupies a traditional derb address in the Marrakech medina, earning 92.5 points on the 2026 La Liste Top Hotels ranking — a benchmark that places it among a small cohort of design-led riads where architecture and spatial precision carry as much weight as service. For travellers who read a property through its walls and courtyards rather than its amenity list, this is a considered address.
Marrakech, Morocco
A Michelin Selected riad in Marrakech's Riad Zitoune Jdid quarter, Riad Antara sits within the southern medina, close to the Mellah and the Bahia Palace.
