We review recent observational results in the field of high-mass star formation. Special attention is given to the earliest evolutionary stages of massive stars through the study of hot, dense molecular cores and ultracompact H II regions. The characteristics of these two classes of objects are illustrated in some detail, emphasizing the role of hot cores as sites of massive star formation. Finally, a possible scenario for an evolutionary sequence from hot cores to ultracompact H II regions is proposed.
