Every Three-Key Michelin Hotel Ranked by Price: From $6,971 to $300 Per Night

What does it cost to stay at the very best hotels in the world? We priced all 141 Three-Key Michelin hotels for the same night — a midweek stay in April 2026, two adults, standard room — to find out.

The range is staggering: from $6,971 per night at a remote wilderness lodge on Vancouver Island to $300 per night at a Provençal retreat in southern France. The median Three-Key hotel costs $1,005 per night, but the distribution is far from even.

Where Does Each City's Average Fall?

For cities with multiple Three-Key properties, the averages reveal different market positions:

City	Hotels	Average Price	Range
New York City	4	$2,243	$1,037–$3,224
Paris	9	$1,721	$368–$2,640
Tokyo	3	$2,049	$1,538–$2,480
London	7	$1,031	$942–$1,139
Venice	2	$1,466	$570–$2,362
Napa / Sonoma	3	$776	$369–$1,005

New York is the most expensive Three-Key city on average, driven by Aman New York's $3,224 rate. London is remarkably consistent — all seven hotels fall within a tight $200 range around $1,000. Paris has the widest spread, from Le Plaza Athénée at $368 (likely a promotional off-season rate) to the Ritz at $2,640.

The 20 Most Affordable Three-Key Hotels

Three-Key status doesn't always mean four-figure nightly rates. These properties prove that Michelin's highest honor rewards experience, not price tags.

Rank	Hotel	Location	Price/Night
141	Hôtel du Castellet	Le Castellet, France	$300
140	Terra Dominicata	Tarragona, Spain	$302
139	Canyon Ranch Tucson	Tucson, United States	$305
138	Asaba	Izu, Japan	$316
137	The Alpina Gstaad	Gstaad, Switzerland	$319
136	Airelles Gordes, La Bastide	Gordes, France	$324
135	Corte della Maestà	Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy	$331
134	Giraffe Manor	Nairobi, Kenya	$333
133	Domaine Les Crayères	Reims, France	$344
132	Atrio Restaurante Hotel	Cáceres, Spain	$349
131	Sage Lodge	Yellowstone, United States	$357
130	J.K. Place Capri	Capri, Italy	$362
129	Althoff Seehotel Überfahrt	Rottach-Egern, Germany	$365
128	Le Plaza Athénée	Paris, France	$368
127	SingleThread Inn	Healdsburg, United States	$369
126	Penha Longa Resort	Sintra, Portugal	$381
125	Airelles Versailles	Versailles, France	$403
124	Torre del Marqués	Teruel, Spain	$403
123	Les Sources de Caudalie	Bordeaux, France	$405
122	Badrutt's Palace Hotel	St. Moritz, Switzerland	$408

Notable bargains: Giraffe Manor in Nairobi — where giraffes join you for breakfast — costs just $333 per night. SingleThread Inn, which includes a three-Michelin-starred tasting menu with the room, is $369. And Le Plaza Athénée, one of Paris's most iconic palace hotels, starts at $368 in April.

Important caveat: Many of these lower prices reflect off-peak or seasonal rates. Alpine hotels like The Alpina Gstaad and Badrutt's Palace are priced for spring shoulder season — winter rates are significantly higher. Similarly, some Mediterranean resorts peak in summer.

Key Takeaways

• Median price: $1,005 per night — roughly what you'd pay at The Savoy in London or Meadowood in Napa Valley
• Remote = expensive: The 5 most expensive hotels are all in wilderness or island locations, averaging $5,850/night
• City palaces are mid-range: Iconic city hotels like Claridge's ($942), The Savoy ($1,021), and Raffles Singapore ($1,307) cluster in the $900–$1,500 range
• Europe has the bargains: 18 of the 28 hotels under $500 are in Europe, particularly France and Spain
• Season matters: Many of these prices are for April, which is off-peak for ski resorts (Courchevel, St. Moritz, Gstaad) and pre-season for summer destinations — expect significant variation
• 28 Three-Key hotels cost under $500/night — proof that Michelin's highest recognition is about the quality of the experience, not the size of the bill
