NUSTAR Hotel, the recently opened ultra-luxury hotel at Cebu’s NUSTAR Resort & Casino, has been named for the first time in the Michelin Guide’s list of recommended hotels for 2025.
The Michelin Guide Hotel List is assessed each year by seasoned Michelin Guide inspectors and takes into account excellence in design, architecture, service, personality and guest experiences.
In a statement, NUSTAR described its inclusion on this year’s list as an important milestone for the Philippine hospitality industry which has traditionally been dominated by international hotel brands.
“The NUSTAR Hotel’s presence in the prestigious Michelin Guide is a proud and significant milestone not just for NUSTAR Hotel, but for Cebu and the entire Philippine hospitality industry,” said NUSTAR COO, Sean Knights.
“This recognition affirms our unwavering commitment to delivering an exceptional hotel product, allowing us to promote world-class experiences that celebrate Filipino culture, elevate service excellence and redefine the boundaries of luxury in the region.”
NUSTAR Hotel opened earlier this year as the second of three hotels within the resort, joining Fili Hotel which opened in 2022. The new hotel boasts 223 spacious rooms and suites and three expansive sea-facing villas, with butler service provided by a team of butlers trained by Heilbron Hospitality, one of the world’s most respected institutions in hospitality training.
NUSTAR Resort & Casino is operated by Universal Hotels and Resorts Inc (UHRI), the hospitality and development arm of Gokongwei Group.
