place of honor
Seat of distinction
A place of honor is a position of special distinction or prestige, typically at a formal gathering or ceremonial occasion.
The guest of honor sits at the place of honor—often at the head of the table or beside the host: She was given the place of honor at the banquet.
The phrase extends to any prominent display position: The trophy held a place of honor on his shelf.
