Four Seasons Hotel, “luxury integrated in the historic heart of Madrid”.
It is not the first time that the Four Seasons Madrid appears on this list. In 2023 it already made its debut in 24th place and seems to have taken a liking to it since then. Located in the heart of the city within the Centro Canalejas complex, this hotel is a treasure trove of elegance and comfort two steps from Puerta del Sol and three steps from the Barrio de las Letras.
It has 200 rooms and suites, spa and wellness services, and a wide variety of gastronomic options, including the Dani Brasserie restaurant, headed by chef Dani García. In addition, the hotel has a total of 1,500 pieces of art located in the different common and private areas.
Paris, London and New York are also on the list.
But the Four Seasons Hotel in Madrid is not the only one to appear on the list. The ranking, created based on the opinion of more than 800 anonymous leaders of the hotel world, is led by the Capella Bangkok in Bangkok followed in second place by the Passalacqua on the shores of Lake Como.
We also find other names such as the Cheval Blanc (fourth place) or the Hôtel de Crillon (fifteenth place) in Paris, Claridge’s (eleventh place) in London or The Carlyle (thirtieth place) in New York. You can consult the complete list of hotels here.
