In an unprecedented expansion of culinary and hospitality excellence, the esteemed 50 Best Discovery platform announces the addition of over 600 global venues, catapulting the guide into an unparalleled realm of travel and gastronomic discovery. This monumental update marks a new era in global dining, drinking, and accommodation experiences, offering discerning connoisseurs a treasure trove of over 3,200 elite establishments.

For the first time since its inception, 50 Best Discovery embraces the world of luxury accommodations, including more than 240 hotels. This move follows the successful launch of The World’s 50 Best Hotels in 2023, a testament to the evolving landscape of global hospitality standards.

The newly added venues span over 100 cities and towns, featuring 260+ restaurants, 120+ bars, and 240+ hotels. Each establishment has been meticulously selected based on votes from the expert voting Academies, comprising over 3,000 members who are connoisseurs in the local restaurant, bar, and hotel scenes. This rigorous selection process ensures that every recommendation on 50 Best Discovery is backed by unparalleled expertise and insight.

50 Best Discovery, known for its highly curated guide, operates as an extension of the annual 50 Best rankings. However, it distinguishes itself by not being a ranking but rather a comprehensive reference tool for the discerning traveller, diner, and cocktail lover. The platform is guided by the world’s foremost restaurant, bar, and travel connoisseurs, offering an authoritative global reference point for the best hospitality experiences.

The expansion sees a strong presence in Italy, with notable inclusions like Villa d’Este, Nik’s & Co., and Bentoteca in Milan, along with luxurious hotels such as Passalacqua in Como and Le Sirenuse in Positano. France welcomes Nîmes into the fold with the addition of the restaurant Rouge, alongside Parisian newcomers Mosuke and Le Voltaire.

Mexico’s culinary scene shines with additions like Animalón in Valle de Guadalupe, Cara de Vaca in Monterrey, and Huniik in Mérida. Asia’s representation grows with bars from Hiroshima, Nara, and Okinawa in Japan and hotels like Six Senses Yao Noi in Thailand and Bawah Reserve in Indonesia. Queenstown, New Zealand, debuts with Rosewood Matakauri.

Africa’s gastronomic landscape is enriched with Nairobi’s bar Beit e Selam and Johannesburg’s restaurant Marble. The hotel scene in Botswana and Rwanda debuted with Xigera and Singita Kwitonda Lodge, respectively, alongside South African jewels like Singita Kruger National Park and Babylonstoren in The Winelands.

In the United States, New York bars like Milady’s, Superbueno, and Mister Paradise lead the way, with Chicago’s Meadowlark and Nine Bar, Seattle’s The Doctor’s Office, and Austin’s The Roosevelt Room also making their first appearances.

This expansion of 50 Best Discovery not only signifies a milestone in global hospitality but serves as a beacon for travellers seeking the pinnacle of dining and accommodation experiences.
