Food and Drink

Hotel restaurant

Golden syrup, butterscotch, salted caramel… No, we’re not describing the desserts at the hotel’s restaurant but the shades sweetening up this almost-ready dining spot, where Mediterranean fare will be served up in Philippe Starck-designed surroundings.

Hotel bar

We’re earmarking one of the high stools at the nearly-there bar for a nightcap, where jewel-toned stained glass windows and a colourful line-up of spirit bottles nod to the Spanish capital’s enduring love affair with traditional tabernas.

Worth getting out of bed for

Weave past bag-wielding shoppers on Calle Gran Vía, or if you can’t beat them, join them by perusing the street’s seemingly never-ending stretch of stores. Swap clothes for culture at Madrid’s museum triumvirate – marvel at Goya and Velázquez’s masterpieces at the Museo del Prado; Picasso’s Guernica is in good company with works by Dalí and Miró at Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, and the smaller-scale Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum still packs a punch with Renoirs and Rembrandts. Neighbouring this art-packed trifecta, you’ll find El Retiro Park; get your fresh-air fill while admiring its rose garden, boating lake and 19th-century colonnade.

 

Local restaurants

Fusion Japanese fare impresses at bright, plant-dotted Sr. Ito, where highlights include superb sushi and cloud-like bao buns. Roostiq’s wood-fired pizzas and flame-grilled dishes, which use fresh produce from the restaurant’s garden, are enhanced by a contemporary setting. And at industrial-inspired Dstage, prettily presented plates are showcased through a choice of tasting menus and deftly paired with wine. 

Local cafés

Start your day at Alma Nomad Bakery, a Scandi-style café, for loaded sandwiches, generous pastries and frothy coffees. Caffeine fiends flock to cosy Círculo Coffee Studio; their flat whites pass with flying colours.

Local bars

Long-loved tavern La Venencia has dusty-bottle-lined shelves, sherry on tap and fuss-free tapas (you can see why Hemingway must have liked it). If you love a cocktail, Lovo Cocktail Bar might be more your tipple – themed cocktails come in playful forms at this dimly lit dive.

Anonymous review

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this suave hotel in Madrid and unpacked their Picasso prints and designer buys, a full account of their city break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Brach Madrid  – Evok Collection

The tight-lipped team behind Brach Madrid – Evok Collection aren’t giving much away until the grand reveal, but with Evok Collection at the helm, and Philippe Starck’s design vision secured, this Grand Vía newcomer is surely tipped for greatness. Excitement around its arrival is bolstered with the addition of a crowning panoramic roof terrace, as well as an all-frills spa in the works. Covetable co-ords also help… You’ll be within strolling distance of Madrid’s well-trodden trio of museums, and within stumbling distance from local-loved haunts and world-class restaurants. And given that Brach boltholes are all about experiencing cities with a side of neighbourhood life, it couldn’t be more fitting.
