Located in Salamanca, Madrid’s focal point for fashion, culture and gastronomy this chic and sophisticated boutique hotel with its premium position, elegant interior design and superb service offers a memorable stay for anyone looking for a unique experience.

Location, location, location – TÓTEM Madrid has one of the best spots in Madrid located on the fashionable Calle de Hermosilla right on the doorstep to the best boutiques, art galleries and restaurants. Since the opening in 2016 TÓTEM with its 65 rooms spread across four floors, has quickly become one of the hottest boutique hotels in Madrid.

As a boutique hotel, the service is as expected personal, warm and professional. As the hotel states “We like to keep it simple and straightforward in a relaxed and informal environment” which is exactly what you will experience as a guest.

The building, a former residential house, boasts with impressive architecture including a majestic wooden staircase. The rooms have all been individually designed with rooms ranging from Double Rooms to Suites.

Corner Junior Suite

The spacious Corner Junior Suites are all located in the main corner of the building. The room boasts three large French windows which add natural light and creates a bright and fresh atmosphere. The room comes with the usual amenities such as free WiFi, hairdryer and room service. Additionally, there are nice touches like the Nespresso coffee machine, a Bee Nest bathrobe, design slippers and the safe deposit box which cleverly has room for a laptop. The bathroom is elegantly decorated with white tiles and charcoal walls storing the 100% organic shampoo, shower gel and conditioner from Hand Made Beauty in large bottles attached to the wall.

Cocktail bar ‘Malditos’

The colourful bar on the ground floor serves up signature cocktails popular among the city’s in-crowd after a day at the office before a night on the town. The blue velvet sofas, painted wall-paper and green palm trees create an exotic yet elegant and classic vibe. The Negronis are to die for and so are the Gin & Tonics which is the bar’s speciality.

Hermosos y Malditos

The hotel’s restaurant Hermosos y Malditos, which is Spanish for ‘The Beautiful and The Damned’ giving a nod to F. Scott Fitzgerald’s second novel and the era to which the novel was published, is a great spot to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Scandinavian decor mixed with the Spanish cheerful service and the great location makes this the perfect spot to start the day enjoying a tasty breakfast. Chose from pancakes, poached eggs on toast or fresh fruit salads and juices.

You don't stay at the Sofitel Legend Metropole for You don't stay at the Sofitel Legend Metropole for the check-in experience—you stay because 1901 wrote better architecture than most cities can build today. Ten years after Graham Greene walked these halls, and they haven't missed a beat. The Opera House steps, the wartime tunnels underfoot, the Angelina salon where cocktails taste like history—they're all part of a legacy that doesn't need to shout to be heard. Read @janoahvankekem ´s review from his recent stay at @sofitellegendmetropolehanoi for @luxnomade on why this Hanoi icon still sets the standard.
Three hours from Hanoi. Seven hectares on the edge Three hours from Hanoi. Seven hectares on the edge of Ha Long Bay. Two buildings designed like traditional fishing vessels. One rooftop dinner that pairs Kagoshima Wagyu with Nuits-Saint-Georges. The math checks out. What makes this property exceptional isn't the awards or the price points—it's the willingness to let simple things (poolside pizza, afternoon tea with a limestone backdrop, quiet mornings at the Club Lounge) carry as much weight as the five-course tasting menus. Sometimes luxury is knowing when not to try too hard. Read @janoahvankekem ´s full review of @intercontinental_halongbay for @luxnomade on the website.
Finca Cortesín has quietly been collecting awards Finca Cortesín has quietly been collecting awards while the rest of the Costa del Sol was still figuring out its aesthetic. From the golf course that rivals the best in Europe to interiors that feel less like a hotel lobby and more like a private estate, this is Andalusia's most intelligent design statement. It proves you can be world-class without being loud. Read our full take on why this Spanish icon remains undefeated. @fincacortesin
Lux Nomade and @janoahvankekem check into Rêve Ho Lux Nomade and @janoahvankekem check into Rêve Ho Chi Minh City @vignettehotels — a boutique stay tucked into Saigon’s historic Antique Street where the mood is quietly luxurious rather than trying too hard about it. Think elegant interiors, rooftop pool dips between coffee runs, and a location that makes wandering District 1 incredibly easy and enjoyable.
The verdict? Stylish, intimate, and exactly the kind of hotel that makes you extend your trip “just one more night”. [ Read the full review on the website]
