Brach Madrid – Evok Collection, Madrid, Spain

Morning light slips across Chamberí’s stone façades and into Brach Madrid, where lacquered woods, rattan, and playful art make 57 rooms and suites feel like a stylish friend’s townhouse.

You’re in the city yet wrapped in calm—espresso hum from the café, citrus and cedar in the air, and a rooftop terrace that catches Madrid’s famously blue sky.

What Makes It Special

• Design-forward hideaway by Evok: tactile materials, curated objects, and warm, lived-in glamour
• City address, neighborhood feel: steps to leafy boulevards, galleries, and classic vermuterías
• Wellness pause: compact gym and treatment rooms for jet-lag resets
• All-day dining & cocktails: bright Mediterranean plates, polished service, and a bar that glows after dark
• Rooftop moments: sunset spritzes with rooftops and church spires in view

A Day at Brach Madrid

Morning

Downstairs, the bakery scent—butter, orange zest—drifts into the lobby. You take a cortado to a velvet banquette and plan the day.

Afternoon

After galleries and a lazy tapas lunch, return to soft light and a quick steam-and-shower; linens cool against sun-warmed skin.

Evening

The bar comes alive: clink of coupe glasses, a plate of jamón and anchovy toasts, music low and golden.

Night

Up on the terrace, the city glows—granite, tile, and starlight—before you sink into a bed that hushes the world.

Insider Tips for Brach Madrid – Evok Collection

• Ask for a terrace if sunning in-room matters; some rooms have great outdoor space despite overall compact rooms with limited storage.
• Pastry tip: their croissant gets raves; the Saint-Honoré is a modern take (extra cream, fewer caramelized puffs—divides opinion).
• Dining room: Mediterranean/oriental-sun flavors; sole is a standout.
• Rooftop is the chill spot to unwind (often calmer than street-level buzz).
• Prime Gran Vía address: ~100 m from the pedestrian axis toward the Royal Palace—you can walk to the opera, Sol, and Plaza Mayor.
