The 10 Best Hotels for Food & Dining

Based on Verified Guest Reviews

Hotel restaurants have stopped being a consolation prize. The best of them now compete with the city outside, and guests increasingly plan to eat in rather than around them. We ranked these ten from verified IHG reviews, weighting how often the dining was named as the highlight and how convincingly. From an omakase counter in Sapporo to a rooftop kitchen in Atlanta, these are the hotels where the food was the thing guests talked about afterwards.

The cities to travel for the food

Some cities reward a trip on the strength of the table alone. Tokyo holds more acclaimed restaurants than anywhere on earth, while New Orleans offers a cuisine you genuinely can't get anywhere else. New York and London put the entire world's kitchens within a few blocks of each other, and San Francisco helped invent the ingredient-led cooking everyone now copies. Barcelona makes a serious case for the most pleasurable eating in Europe, and Chicago quietly rivals either coast for ambition.

IHG brands that take dining seriously

InterContinental treats the restaurant as central to the luxury, from omakase in Sapporo to degustation on the Mornington Peninsula. These are kitchens staffed and styled to compete with the best in the city, not just to feed guests who can't be bothered to leave.

Hotel Indigo roots its dining in the neighborhood, with restaurants that draw on local ingredients and traditions — and frequently outshine the upscale competition, as guests in Warsaw and Kraków keep pointing out.

voco brings a strong, characterful food and beverage focus to its properties, whether that's an elegant breakfast room in Katowice or a rooftop jazz restaurant by LaGuardia — dining that gives the hotel its personality.
