“Four Seasons Hotel Madrid began with a visionary plan by our owner partner OHL to unite and breathe new life into a collection of historic buildings in the heart of Madrid. Together with recent partners Mohari Hospitality, the result is a modern luxury experience in a magnificently restored property—the perfect debut for Four Seasons in Spain,” said Christian Clerc, president, Global Operations, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.

Mark Scheinberg, founder of Mohari Hospitality, which is half owner of the property with OHL since 2017, added, “We’re really proud to have partnered with Four Seasons and OHL to develop and open this flagship luxury destination in Madrid, and the first Four Seasons in Spain. Despite the challenging circumstances, we’re sure that Centro Canalejas, and its seven beautifully reconceptualized historic buildings, will swiftly become a new social centre for the City of Madrid and a second home for local and global visitors alike.”

Three Michelin-star chef Dani Garcia, one of Spain’s most celebrated chefs and a champion of the country’s culinary heritage, has opened an eponymous restaurant on the top floor of the hotel. Open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and tapas, “Dani” serves traditional Andalusian cuisine that “converts the casual into the sophisticated, and the sophisticated into casual.” The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating year-round.

A second restaurant, Isa, will soon be added to the hotel’s restaurant and bar offerings. This beautifully appointed gastrobar will pair Asian-inspired tapas with creative cocktail concoctions crafted by bar manager Sophie Larrouture.
