Hotéis

When the first One Shot hotel opened, we had a feeling that, despite the name, there’d be more. After all, who can resist a stylish, youthful update to Madrid’s stately, formal atmosphere? Hotel One Shot Fortuny 07 is located in Almagro, an upscale neighborhood that’s home to embassies, art galleries, expensive homes, and high-end shops and restaurants. Which is to say, a hotel could get away with being a whole lot more conservative than this one.

Instead you’ll find these elegant spaces, with their hardwood floors and Art Deco flourishes, livened up with curvaceous modern furniture, adventurous contemporary artworks, and accents in eye-popping Klein blue. Single rooms start out at a cozy 15 square meters, but come with comfy beds, work desks, and rainfall showers. And as you move up into Executive and Premium rooms, on your way up to the One Shot Suite, you’ll add plenty of interior space, and, in the suite, a bathtub and a private terrace.

The public spaces, it must be said, are still something of a work in progress. A fine breakfast and a serviceable fitness room are well-established, as is an art gallery showing a series of photography exhibitions. Coming soon is Olivia te Cuida, an outpost of a well-loved local restaurant; in the meantime the staff is happy to recommend the best bites in Almagro.
