Substantive corrections — those that alter a ranking, a tier, a disclosure, or a material judgement — are published here with the original text preserved alongside the revision and a note explaining the change.

Cadaqués: quiet window before summer crowds (homepage editorial stream)
Original: UNESCO-adjacent zoning has made the village Spain's 2nd most expensive coastal address at 6,760 EUR/m².
Corrected: UNESCO-adjacent zoning has frozen supply, making the village the Costa Brava's most expensive coastal address at 6,760 EUR/m².
Rationale: Cadaqués is the most expensive address on the Costa Brava — but it is not Spain's 2nd most expensive coastal address. Per Idealista's January 2026 ranking, the 2nd most expensive coastal address in Spain is Costa d'En Blanes (Calvià, Mallorca) at ~€9,700/m². The verified €6,760/m² figure stays. The false national ranking is removed. The structural cause (UNESCO-adjacent zoning) stays.
Copenhagen after Noma: 30 stars across 19 restaurants (homepage editorial stream)
Original: Kadeau, Geranium, and Alchemist hold the top trinity.
Corrected: Geranium and Jordnær hold the operational three-star top, with Alchemist and Kadeau two stars apiece below them.
Rationale: The three-Michelin-star restaurants in Copenhagen are Geranium, Jordnær, and Noma. Noma is no longer operating regular restaurant service after January 2026, leaving Geranium and Jordnær as the operational three-star top. Alchemist holds two stars. Kadeau holds two stars. Both are at the highest tier below the three-star top — but not at it.
Copenhagen after Noma: 30 stars across 19 restaurants (homepage editorial stream)
Original: Copenhagen now holds 30 Michelin stars across 19 restaurants — more than Stockholm, Oslo, and Helsinki combined.
Corrected: the city now holds 30 Michelin stars across 19 restaurants, the deepest Michelin map in the Nordics.
Rationale: The 30-stars-across-19-restaurants figure is verified against the Michelin Guide Nordic Cities 2025 ceremony. The 'more than Stockholm, Oslo, and Helsinki combined' comparison was published without a current-source citation. Copenhagen is consistently described as the Nordic city with the most Michelin stars; the specific comparative arithmetic against the current 2026 totals for Stockholm, Oslo, and Helsinki is not currently published in a source we cite. Softened to a qualitative claim we can stand behind.

Barcelona's hotel supply tightens ahead of 2028 (homepage editorial stream)
Original: hotel prices in Eixample and Born are climbing 8–12% per year
Corrected: hotel rate growth in Eixample and Born has materially outpaced inflation since 2019
Rationale: The 0.5% Barcelona hotel-room supply growth figure (2019–2024) is verified against HVS Barcelona Market Pulse 2025 and is retained. The specific 8–12% per-year rate growth claim for Eixample and Born districts was published without a source we can publicly cite. Directional claim preserved; specific precision withdrawn pending a publishable source.
