CASA DE LAS ARTES, A NEW LUXURY HOTEL IN MADRID
Casa De Las Artes is a must-visit destination for those seeking a unique and exclusive stay in the city centre. The new hotel holds a deep connection to Madrid’s vibrant cultural spirit. Its intriguing name embodies a singular concept: a tribute to the seven fine arts from Madrid’s literary heart. This modern tribute to art is a way to continue time-honoured legacies while reimagining new possibilities, creating a space where the contemporary and timeless can coexist.
Unique Décor Inspired by Classic Spanish Literature
The interior design and décor were crafted by architect Álvaro Sans and interior designer Adriana Sans from the ASAH studio, in collaboration with Meliá Hotels International. Their work sought inspiration from a singular figure who shaped the aesthetic vision of this hidden gem nestled in the charming streets of Barrio de las Letras: Miguel de Cervantes. Revered as Spain’s greatest novelist, poet, and playwright, Cervantes, the neighbourhood’s most illustrious resident, serves as the guiding force behind the new hotel. As a key figure of modern literature, Cervantes’ legacy inspired the mission of Cas de las Artes and no other artist could hold this place of honour like the “prince of wits.”
Casa de las Artes: An Immersive Cultural Experience
Nestled between Calle Atocha and Calle Moratín, the luxury hotel offers a captivating experience for its guests, with a rich program of activities and events designed to immerse travellers within the seven fine arts. Guests can engage with culture through an array of workshops, temporary exhibitions, film series, and more.
The hotel also boasts a number of leisure spaces including a thermal pool and a fitness centre, ensuring both mind and body stay invigorated. Notably, the fitness centre features a unique space with a ballet barre, paying homage to the elegant art of dance.
Spanish Railways Association building hosts restaurant
A key cornerstone of The Meliá Collection, gastronomy plays a leading role in the hotel. MACHÉ, a restaurant whose name draws inspiration from the visual arts, has been selected to enhance this rich cultural journey with exceptional cuisine. Situated in the historic Spanish Railways Association building, the restaurant offers a unique fusion of culinary delights and live entertainment, transforming dinners into unforgettable evenings. Stained-glass windows and lofty ceilings create a breathtaking backdrop for a theatrical dining experience.
This remarkable opening is poised to become the must-visit destination for culture enthusiasts in Madrid, seeking inspiring experiences that allow visitors to fully immerse themselves in the city’s rich historical tapestry.
