Paradise City Makes Debut in La Liste's World's Top 1,000 Hotels
Forbes Travel Guide and Michelin Key Also Give High Praise
"An Unmissable Destination for the Harmony of Art and Entertainment"
Strengthening Competitiveness Through Artistic Content Such as 'Myucance'
Paradise City, the integrated resort located on Yeongjong Island in Incheon, announced on December 11 that it has been selected as one of the world’s top 1,000 hotels by France’s global gastronomy and hotel guide, La Liste, this year.
La Liste evaluates hotels by combining its own assessments with reviews from publications and online sources worldwide. Paradise City received a score of 93.5 out of 100 in the evaluation. This is the sixth highest among hotels in Korea and the highest among resorts. It is the first time Paradise City has been included in La Liste's global top 1,000 hotels.
La Liste also gave high marks to Paradise in the field of gastronomy. Last month, at the 'La Liste 2026 Paris' awards ceremony held in Paris, France, Paradise Group received the special 'Innovation Award.' This award is given to chefs or restaurant operators who have shifted the direction of the culinary world with new and creative business ideas.
Paradise has been making continuous efforts to elevate Korean fine dining to a world-class level. In August, the group established 'Culinary Lab by Paradise' and collaborated with Michelin three-star chef Kang Mingoo to drive innovation in the culinary field.
Paradise City also drew attention from Forbes Travel Guide, a travel evaluation magazine, and the Michelin Guide, which began hotel evaluations for the first time this year. Forbes Travel Guide gave Paradise City high marks for its diverse artworks and excellent dining services, awarding it 'Four Stars' for the sixth consecutive year. 'Art Paradiso,' the resort’s luxury boutique hotel, received four stars for the second consecutive year.
In October, the Michelin Guide awarded Art Paradiso a 'One Key,' signifying a 'very special stay.' Unlike the 'Star' awarded for restaurants, the Michelin Key evaluates the overall accommodation experience, including design, service, and location, to determine the level of hospitality. Only eight hotels in Korea have received the Michelin Key after a rigorous evaluation process.
As Korea’s first artainment integrated resort, Paradise City continues to strengthen its artistic content, thereby enhancing its competitiveness in hospitality. Its artistic offerings include more than 3,000 artworks displayed throughout the resort and exhibitions at the Paradise Art Space gallery. Recently, the resort has led the 'music-vacation' (Myucance) trend by hosting large-scale music festivals that combine music with hotel vacations.
