Twelve independent hotels from the Autentico Club have been recognised in the MICHELIN Guide’s 2026 Key selection — a distinction that celebrates places where hospitality, character and a deep sense of place come together.
Vetera Matera - Relais & Châteaux and Castel Fragsburg have been awarded Two MICHELIN Keys, while ten further Autentico member hotels have received One Key.
Across Italy, these hotels reflect the extraordinary diversity of the country: the ancient stone and quiet beauty of Matera, the dramatic shores of the Amalfi Coast, the alpine elegance of Merano, the timeless atmosphere of Venice and the distinctive landscapes of Sicily.
Each one tells Italy in its own way. Through centuries-old architecture and contemporary design, local traditions and warm hospitality, landscapes that shape the experience and stories that connect each place to its surroundings.
Because Italy is not one story, but many.
And some of its most memorable chapters are found in the places that allow you to experience it from within.
