Jérôme Gouadain, Secretary General of the
Prix Versailles, said, “Through their architecture and their design, the World’s Most Beautiful Hotels elevate the links between culture and tourism. On the one hand, culture provides finesse, elegance, updates to ancient techniques and diverse shapes, forms, textures and colors, not to mention curiosity, which is the hallmark of a destination. On the other, tourism showcases cultural assets, encourages visitors to discover new people and places, and brings knowledge to life. The World’s Most Beautiful Hotels are ambassadors for intelligent, sustainable tourism rooted in culture.”
Presented each year at UNESCO since 2015 and focused on recognizing exceptional architecture and intelligent sustainability, the
Prix Versailles is a series of architectural competitions that shine light on the finest contemporary projects around the world. The Official List is aligned with
Prix Versailles’ awarding principles – paying tribute to innovation, creativity, reflections of local heritage, ecological efficiency and the values of social interaction and participation – all of which the United Nations holds in high regard.
