The Ritz in London is among a number of hotels to gain a Michelin star for the first time for their restaurants.

The acknowledgement of the work of executive chef John Williams and his team at The Ritz Restaurant is one of many new stars granted in the Michelin Guide Great Britain and Ireland 2017.

Williams said: “It is the greatest honour to have been awarded a Michelin star today. I am extremely proud to receive this recognition for the first time as part of the culinary history of this great hotel.”

Also in London, The Lanesborough’s restaurant Celeste gained a star, only having opened last year under chef Eric Frechon and executive chef Florian Favario.
