IN A WORLD of fast-paced technological advancements, it’s not often that we come across establishments that balance both modernity and cultural heritage. CoolRooms Hotels, a brand that was founded in 2018, stands out in this regard. Its mission is to transform historic and culturally rich spaces into luxurious and modern hotels, offering travelers a unique blend of the past and the present.

With locations in Madrid, Seville, and the recently opened Asturias, CoolRooms Hotels presents a unique escape for those in search of luxury, relaxation, and cultural immersion.

From the 34 spacious rooms housed in the Palacio de Atocha in Madrid, to the 50 individual rooms at the Palacio de Villapanés in Seville, to the 44 recently renovated rooms at the Palacio de Luces in Asturias, each hotel provides a distinct experience that transports guests away from the stresses of
daily life.

Experience the Ultimate Fusion of History, Luxury, and Art

Madrid is a city rich in history and cultural significance, and few establishments embody this as beautifully as the CoolRooms Palacio de Atocha. Nestled in the heart of the Barrio de las Letras district, this refurbished building dating back to 1852 offers guests a palatial experience that combines historical elegance with modern luxury.

One of the hotel’s key selling points is its location. Situated near some of Madrid’s most iconic cultural institutions, such as the Prado Museum and Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection, the Plaza Mayor, and the Sociedad Cervantina, the hotel provides travelers with a unique cultural experience in the heart of the city.


The 34 rooms and suites at the hotel are some of the largest in the city center, with sizes ranging from 34 to 104m2. The high ceilings, spacious proportions, and tastefully designed interiors, blending classical and contemporary styles, evoke a sense of grandeur and sophistication. The CoolSuites, in particular, are a standout feature of the hotel, offering private terraces, outdoor jacuzzis, and a creative atmosphere that inspires guests to tap into their artistic side.

Food and drink also play a significant role at the hotel, with Chef Eduardo Gutierrez overseeing the restaurant-terrace El Patio de Atocha. The menu, which features seasonal produce and traditional techniques, incorporates concepts such as Slow Food and organic cuisine, making it a must-try destination for food lovers. The bar lounge offers premium cocktails, while the beautifully decorated restaurant lounge is the perfect spot for an intimate and elegant dining experience.


Finally, the hotel’s commitment to art and creativity is evident in every aspect of its design and atmosphere. From the exquisite decor in the restaurant lounge to the artistic inspiration behind the CoolSuites, guests will feel surrounded by beauty and inspiration.
