WASHINGTON, DC (June 30, 2025) – Two hotels in Pennsylvania and one in Florida are the newest properties to receive the AAA Diamond Program’s highest designation. The Chateau at Nemacolin and The Grand Lodge at Nemacolin – both in Farmington, Pennsylvania – join their sister hotel Falling Rock at Nemacolin in becoming AAA Five Diamond hotels. The oceanfront St. Regis Longboat Key Resort in Longboat Key, Florida also received AAA Five Diamonds. Less than 1% percent of the nearly 23,000 AAA Diamond lodgings boast Five Diamonds. Also this month, 9 hotels and 8 restaurants received AAA Four Diamonds. These properties stand out for their upscale amenities and distinctive fine dining.
Throughout the year, AAA Inspectors visit hotels and restaurants across North America, the Caribbean, and Costa Rica unannounced to objectively verify the 4 Cs of AAA Diamonds: Cleanliness, Comfort, Cuisine, and Consistency.
