This dreamy boutique bolthole, set in the fashionable Salamanca district is an absolute must-see for lovers of design sleek properties.

Inside, the hotel features a number of eclectic spaces for elegant slumming, with classy wooden panelling clashing with vibrant contemporary fabrics and furnishings.

The 64 rooms include peaceful attic rooms, spacious suites with living rooms that can double up as sleek meeting rooms for business travellers and plush connected rooms for families.

The two meeting rooms, located 20 metres away in Calle Hermosilla, are beautifully appointed and can host groups of up to 20.

When hunger strikes, the bright and airy El Pimiento Verde restaurant is the place to go for flavoursome plates of Basque cuisine – think matured steak, artichoke flowers, oven-baked monkfish and creamy rice with lobster.

Skip the pudding and save the calories for the cocktails created by the in-house mixologist, who will tailor-make drinks based on guests’ preferences. This achingly hip bar is the perfect place to end the day, surrounded by the city’s beautiful people.

Totem Madrid is part of Marugal Hotels, which is attending inVOYAGE 2020 on 4-7 October in Mykonos.
