It's for restaurants.

The guide awards one to three stars to a small number of restaurants of outstanding quality. Stars are awarded sparingly; for instance, in the UK and Ireland 2004 guide, out of 5,500 entries, there are 98 with one star ("a very good restaurant in its category"), 11 with two stars ("excellent cooking, worth a detour"), and only 3 with three stars ("exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey"). Michelin stars are taken very seriously in the restaurant business, where the addition or loss of a star can mean a difference in turnover of millions of euro. Some three-star restaurants are able to charge hundreds of euro for a meal on the strength of their reputation.
Since 1955, the Guide has also highlighted restaurants offering "good food at moderate prices", a feature now called "Bib Gourmand". They must have a menu priced at no more than £25 in the case of the UK, or €36 in the Republic of Ireland. The name comes from Bib (Bibendum), the Michelin Man, Michelin's logo for over a century.

The Michelin Guide (Le Guide Michelin) is a series of annual guide books published by Michelin for over a dozen countries. The term refers by default to the Michelin Red Guide, the oldest and best-known European hotel and restaurant guide, which awards the famous Michelin stars. Michelin also publishes Green Guides for travel and tourism, as well as several newer publications such as the Guide Voyager Pratique (independent travel), Guide Gourmand (good-value eating-places), Guide Escapade (quick breaks) and Guide Coup de Cœur (hotels of character).

The Guide's restaurant ratings using Michelin stars are probably the most famous and influential gastronomic ratings in the world.

I am assuming you are talking about the hotel and resturant ratings in the Micheline Travel Guides.
