Madrid’s oldest hotel, with a facelift from 2018 that makes for a truly stunning stay. Highlights include the jazzy cocktail bar, uniquely designed rooms decked out with all the latest tech, a delicious onsite restaurant called Lobbyto, and more.

A towering, triumphant addition to the city’s hotel scene, with a stunning staircase now famous in the world of interior architecture. Everything here feels at once hyper-contemporary and luxurious: the 177 rooms, dramatic common rooms, great amenities, and more. 

The elegant yet subtle common areas and medium-size feel intimate and inviting. Rooms are perfectly appointed and deeply chic, but what really stands out are the castle-in-the-sky views of surrounding Madrid. 

On the edge of the upscale Serrano shopping district sits this mixed-use building, where the well-appointed hotel rooms are tucked away on the upper floors. The Gingko Sky Bar and hotel pool upstairs are both fabulous and popular, so get there early.

Five-star boutique hotel with a renowned spa, in a centuries-old building, with chicly updated interiors. This one feels subtle in its elegance, refined and understated. (And make sure to request a rental bike from the lobby to better explore the city.)
