Bucks County has welcomed its first hotel to the MICHELIN Guide’s prestigious hotel selection. Carversville Inn, a six-suite boutique inn in the historic village of Carversville, has been awarded a One Michelin Key in the 2026 MICHELIN Guide hotel selection.
The recognition marks the first Michelin Key awarded to a hotel in Bucks County and places Carversville Inn among a select group of properties recognized by the MICHELIN Guide for creating an exceptional guest experience. Carversville Inn is one of 65 hotels newly added to the MICHELIN Guide’s 2026 U.S. Key selection.
Launched in 2024, the Michelin Key is the hotel distinction from the MICHELIN Guide, with One, Two and Three Keys recognizing properties for increasingly exceptional stays. Michelin inspectors anonymously evaluate hotels based on architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, personality and character, value and the property’s contribution to its surrounding community.
Carversville Inn’s recognition comes just over a year after the property reopened following an extensive restoration. Originally built in 1813 as Carversville’s first tavern, the historic property sat vacant for years before owners Milan Lint and Mitch Berlin purchased it in 2020. Following a two-year restoration, the inn reopened in May 2025 as a six-suite boutique hotel blending historic character with refined luxury. The property also features a French-inspired brasserie showcasing locally sourced ingredients and accommodations designed with a romantic, countryside escape in mind.
The Michelin Key adds to the growing list of accolades bringing national attention to Bucks County as a destination for overnight stays. With its historic towns, scenic countryside, acclaimed dining, arts and culture and distinctive accommodations, the county offers travelers opportunities to turn a day trip into a longer getaway.
Located just outside New Hope, Carversville Inn provides an intimate home base for exploring the surrounding area, including the Delaware River towns, historic sites, restaurants, shops and attractions throughout Bucks County.
