Corinthia has secured top honours in the 2026 Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Awards, with newly opened Corinthia Rome named the Number 1 hotel in the city in its first year of operation among its UK readers and Corinthia London climbing to the Number 1 position in London for its U.S. readers, the hotel chain said.
The accolades represent significant recognition for Corinthia's growing international portfolio, particularly for Corinthia Rome, which has made a strong impression since opening in the Eternal City earlier this year.
The Readers' Choice Awards are based on the experiences and opinions of Condé Nast Traveler readers, making the two first-place rankings a direct endorsement from travelers.
Separately, Corinthia was also recognized in the 2026 Michelin Guide hotel selection, with four hotels awarded Two Michelin Keys and Corinthia Rome receiving its first Michelin Key in its opening year. Michelin Keys, the hotel counterpart to the Michelin Stars awarded to restaurants, recognize exceptional stays based on criteria including architecture and design, quality of service, character, value and connection to their surroundings.
Simon Naudi, CEO of Corinthia Group, said: "These awards are a testament to the standards, efforts and creativity of our Corinthia properties and teams around the world, across both the hotels we own and those we operate on behalf of third-party owners. We are grateful for the recognition given to us by such prestigious organizations."
The Corinthia properties recognized in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide Key selection, with four receiving Two MICHELIN Keys, are the following:
Corinthia London, retaining the Two-Key distinction first awarded in 2025;
Corinthia Grand Hotel Astoria Brussels, elevated from One Key to Two Keys;
Corinthia Grand Hotel du Boulevard Bucharest, retaining its Two-Key distinction; and
The Surrey, A Corinthia Hotel in New York, elevated from One Key to Two Keys within its first year of operation.
The awards recognize Corinthia properties across London, Rome, Brussels, Bucharest and New York, spanning both established hotels and some of the Group's newest openings.
