Two of Cambodia’s most iconic hotels, Raffles Hotel Le Royal in Phnom Penh and Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor in Siem Reap, have been recognised with the prestigious MICHELIN Keys, placing them among just ten hotels in the country to receive the honour in the MICHELIN Guide’s first-ever Cambodia edition.
The MICHELIN Keys celebrate the world’s most exceptional hotels, much like MICHELIN Stars honour top restaurants. Both Raffles properties have long been symbols of timeless elegance, offering guests a unique blend of colonial charm and contemporary luxury.
The editors of the MICHELIN Guide described Raffles Hotel Le Royal as “Phnom Penh’s top hotel by far” and “the best located, just steps away from the Royal Palace.” The hotel, which first opened in 1929, features 175 rooms and suites reimagined during a year-long restoration in 2019. Its design harmoniously blends French colonial, Khmer, and Art Deco influences, offering guests a refined yet contemporary retreat in the heart of Cambodia’s capital.
Equally praised was Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor in Siem Reap, described as “an authentic French Colonial hotel, palatial, filled with '30s Art Deco furnishings, claw-footed bathtubs, and an antique cage elevator.” The property, which opened in 1932, retains its original grandeur while offering modern comforts suited to today’s discerning travellers. Its rooms, suites, and villas capture the spirit of 1930s Art Deco with Cambodian influences, creating an atmosphere of elegance and nostalgia.
In a further achievement, Raffles Hotel Le Royal was recently voted No. 2 hotel in Southeast Asia in the Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Awards 2025, one of the world’s most prestigious hospitality recognitions. Cambodia also earned a place among the Top 5 friendliest countries in the world, reflecting its growing global appeal as a travel destination.
Dagmar Lyons, General Manager of Raffles Hotel Le Royal, said:
“To be recognised in the same month by both MICHELIN and Condé Nast Traveler, two of the planet’s top authorities in international travel – shows that Raffles Hotel Le Royal is truly a world-class destination, celebrated for exceptional hospitality, timeless elegance, and an extraordinary guest experience.”
Echoing the sentiment, Joseph Colina, General Manager at Raffles Grand Hotel d’Angkor, added:
“The honour from MICHELIN is a testament to our commitment to preserving the rich legacy of our hotel while offering guests an unforgettable experience steeped in history and elegance.”
Earlier this year, both Raffles properties introduced a unique seven-day package titled “A Tale of Two Cities,” inviting guests on an immersive journey that connects Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. The experience captures the essence of Cambodia through grand history, cultural immersion, and the signature hospitality that defines the Raffles brand.
These recognitions further solidify Raffles Hotels’ legacy as custodians of heritage luxury, where history, artistry, and world-class service continue to set global benchmarks in hospitality.

The voyages also include East Greenland’s wild frontiers, South Greenland’s Norse ruins, Iceland’s Westfjords, and the King Frederick VI Coast, offering some of the most scenic and secluded routes on the planet.

This World Food Day, the story isn’t just about what we eat, it’s about where it comes from and who makes it possible. Across countries, chefs, farmers, and communities are finding ways to make dining more sustainable, mindful, and rooted in local tradition. From Thailand’s coastal kitchens to Kenya’s community canteens, these stories remind us that good food nourishes both people and the planet.
Phulay Bay, Thailand, From Krabi’s Soil to the Table
At Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, luxury finds harmony with nature. The resort follows a true farm-to-table philosophy, where organic vegetables, herbs, and fruits grown in its own gardens—and nearby community farms—find their way onto the plate.Local fishermen bring in the day’s catch—lobsters, tiger prawns, and blue swimmer crabs—ensuring freshness straight from Krabi’s coast. Each dish, from turmeric-rich curries to fragrant lemongrass salads, tells a story of the region’s land, sea, and spirit. Here, dining becomes more than indulgence—it’s a celebration of provenance, community, and respect for the ecosystem.
Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas, Qatar, The Gastronomic Heartbeat of the Coast
On Qatar’s scenic southwestern coast, Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas blends sustainability with culture. Partnering with local farms, the resort sources fresh fruits, herbs, and dairy while cutting down food miles. At Souk Kitchen, guests enjoy mezze made with local produce, seafood caught in Qatari waters, and breads baked using recipes passed down through generations. Even the Arabic coffee is locally roasted, turning every sip into a taste of community and tradition.
Perched high above Tokyo, Sky Restaurant 634 (Musashi) offers more than stunning views, it celebrates the Japanese philosophy of shun, using ingredients at their seasonal best. Each dish, from white shrimp and sea urchin monaka to beet risotto with poached eel, reflects balance, craft, and respect for nature’s rhythm. Amid Tokyo’s glittering skyline, dining here becomes an experience of gratitude and mindfulness.
In Kenya, sustainability is a story of innovation and inclusion. The Food4Education Giga Kitchen in Nairobi serves over 60,000 school meals a day, powered by eco-briquettes and zero-waste systems that convert organic scraps into energy. Local farmers—most of them women—supply fresh ingredients, strengthening rural livelihoods.Elsewhere, spaces like Cultiva Kenya and Nairobi Street Kitchen champion creativity through organic farming, upcycled interiors, and zero-waste cooking. Together, they prove that in Kenya, sustainability isn’t just a concept—it’s a way of cooking with purpose and imagination.
Ras Al Khaimah - A Table Rooted in Community and Conservation
In Ras Al Khaimah, food is deeply tied to place and people. At The Ritz-Carlton Ras Al Khaimah, Al Wadi Desert, the Chef’s Garden supplies herbs and vegetables directly to the kitchen, while Farmhouse by Syrco highlights traceable and locally sourced ingredients.Nearby, Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island integrates sustainability through Accor’s Planet 21 initiative, growing its own produce and sourcing Dibba Bay oysters—the UAE’s first homegrown oyster farm. Together, these resorts are redefining what responsible luxury looks (and tastes) like.
Across Sri Lanka’s lush hills and coastal towns, Teardrop Hotels live by a philosophy of nourishment rooted in care. Ingredients are grown in their own gardens or sourced from local farmers and women’s cooperatives. From jackfruit curries to fresh cinnamon desserts, every meal supports the land and its people. Here, sustainability feels like home—quiet, heartfelt, and shared.
