Why it matters: Michelin provides coveted stars to restaurants, but this is the first time it is honoring hotels and resorts with high standards and unique qualities.

Zoom in: Accolades for hotels range from one to three "Keys," with three being the best. Three Atlanta hotels received a One Key classification.
