Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group awarded 18 Michelin stars in 12 restaurants in the 2017 Michelin Guides – more than any other hotel group in the world


Mandarin Oriental hotels have long been renowned for their excellence and innovation in food and beverage, and the Group’s passion for creating memorable dining experiences has once again been recognised in the 2017 Michelin Guides. The current total number of Michelin-starred restaurants in the Group’s portfolio is 12, with a total of 18 Michelin stars. This is more than any other hotel group in the world.

“We are delighted to once again receive these prestigious accolades, and are particularly honoured that Yong Yi Ting at Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai has received its first Michelin star in the city’s inaugural guide, while Seta at Mandarin Oriental, Milan has been awarded a second Michelin star,” said David Nicholls, the Group’s Corporate Director of Food and Beverage. “This reflects the dedication to great food and service that Mandarin Oriental hotels offer around the world.”

The Michelin Guide has been in the business of evaluating and recommending restaurants and hotels for over a century. They employ full-time professional inspectors who anonymously visit restaurants and hotels, and evaluate them on a range of criteria, using an evaluation process that has been honed over time to identify consistently high-quality establishments to suit a range of budgets and across a range of styles and cuisines.
