Sonoma County Hotels Earn Global Awards of Excellence
Renowned for its discerning standards in the culinary and hospitality realms, the inaugural Michelin Key rating system has made its debut, elevating the global standard for hotel excellence.
Among the 124 distinguished properties honored with One, Two, or Three Keys, Sonoma County shines with five notable establishments on this exclusive list.
Leading with Three Keys is SingleThread Inn in Healdsburg, renowned for its opulence and refinement. Boasting five exquisitely appointed accommodations, each exuding a modern-classic allure, SingleThread Inn offers an unparalleled luxury experience, seamlessly integrated with its acclaimed restaurant helmed by chef Kyle Connaughton.
Guerneville’s The Stavrand and Healdsburg’s The Madrona clinched Two Keys, embodying Sonoma County’s charm.
The Stavrand blends historical elegance with contemporary sensibilities, while The Madrona offers eclectic sophistication curated by owner and interior designer Jay Jeffers. The Montage Healdsburg also earned Two Keys.
Completing the quartet is The Sea Ranch Lodge, recognized with One Key for its exceptional character and seaside appeal, set among landscape of the rugged Sonoma County Coast.
The Michelin Key rating system provides travelers with a guide to exceptional hospitality experiences, transcending mere amenities to illuminate extraordinary stays that leave a lasting impression. These selections represent a diverse range of concepts, price ranges, and geographical locations, offering travelers unparalleled experiences tailored to their preferences.
Just as the Michelin Stars denote culinary excellence, the Michelin Keys highlight outstanding accommodations, setting a new benchmark for travelers seeking remarkable stays.
