Madrid
Eclectic hedonistic luxury — part aristocratic Salamanca townhouse, part lively Madrid social scene. Art deco bones with a contemporary, fashion-forward personality. The lobby bar hosts DJ nights and art exhibitions; the basement has a bowling alley and Japanese restaurant open until 4am.
Book Picos Pardos Sky Lounge in advance — it draws a local crowd and fills up on weekends
Why It Matters
Designed by Lázaro Rosa-Violán and recognised by Forbes Travel Guide with a Five-Star award. Member of The Leading Hotels of the World. Flagship property of the BLESS Collection. Only hotel in Madrid's Golden Mile with a rooftop pool. Houses SLVJ, a Japanese concept with an international presence across 9+ countries.
BLESS Hotel Madrid occupies a mid-century building on Calle Velázquez — once home to the Gran Hotel Velázquez since the 1940s — now reborn as a 5-star, 111-room property in the upscale Salamanca district. Interior designer Lázaro Rosa-Violán has layered the spaces with a mix of mid-century Madrid references, rich textures, and eclectic contemporary touches: think bronze-encrusted marble staircases, William Morris fabric headboards, navy rugs on parquet floors, and an art-deco exterior with wrought-iron railings. The rooftop pool and Picos Pardos Sky Lounge are genuinely popular with locals as well as guests, which gives the place an energy beyond your typical hotel bubble.
