Bvlgari Hotel London Holds Three MICHELIN Keys for a Second Year Running

Bvlgari Hotel London was awarded Three MICHELIN Keys for the second consecutive year, the guide's top tier of hotel recognition and one earned for service, design, and overall guest experience rather than any single feature. Forbes Travel Guide separately confirmed the hotel's five-star rating for 2026, giving it two of the industry's most closely watched endorsements at once.

Inside, the hotel's rooms and suites received a refresh drawing directly from Bulgari's own jewelry archive, with jewel-toned silk rugs and curtains set against cognac leather chairs and cashmere throws, while the original black marble bathrooms and mahogany wardrobes stayed untouched. The new Bvlgari Lounge, designed by longtime hotel collaborator Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, hosted a year-long residency from Italian pastry chef and chocolatier Gianluca Fusto, and the hotel debuted a new Afternoon Tea built around Italian savory dishes from Executive Chef Adriano Cavagnini and pastries from Executive Pastry Chef Salvatore Mungiovino.

Set on Knightsbridge just steps from Harrods, the hotel has always leaned into its jewelry house heritage more overtly than most Bvlgari properties, and this year's updates make that identity even more literal without losing the restraint the brand is known for elsewhere.
