Puerta America
Avant-garde architectural showcase. Every floor is a different creative universe — from Hadid's space-age curves to Foster's hi-tech minimalism to Mariscal's playful colors. The vibe is bold, design-obsessed, and slightly cerebral.
Ask specifically for a room on the floor whose designer most appeals to you — they really are radically different, and the floor/bed type is subject to availability unless you book a specific room type.
Why It Matters
The only hotel in the world where 19 internationally acclaimed architects — including five Pritzker Prize winners — each designed a full floor with zero budget ceiling and total creative freedom. The Jean Nouvel colorful facade, John Pawson lobby, Zaha Hadid first floor, and Norman Foster second floor alone make it worth visiting even without staying.
Hotel Puerta America is one of the world's most ambitious experiments in architectural collaboration. Opened in 2006, the 315-room property commissioned 19 architects and designers from 13 countries — including Zaha Hadid, Norman Foster, and Jean Nouvel, three Pritzker Prize winners — to each design an entire floor from scratch, with full creative freedom. John Pawson's stark white lobby gives you almost no preview of what lies above. Ride up a floor and you're in Zaha Hadid's sci-fi world of fluid white curves and free-standing bathtubs. Go up to the 7th and Ron Arad's Hi-Macs polymer surfaces seem to grow directly from the walls. It's a genuine design pilgrimage, though guests who need a desk, drawers, and easy-to-find light switches may find the artistry occasionally trumps function.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Deluxe Room
Ten different designer interiors spread across floors 2 through 11, so each floor is a genuinely different room. Designed by architects including Norman Foster, David Chipperfield, Marc Newson, Ron Arad, and Plasma Studio among others. Comes with either a queen bed or a queen bed with two mattresses — floor and bed type subject to availability. All have large windows with panoramic city views.
Queen · 28 sqmExecutive Suite by Jean Nouvel
Located on the 12th floor with sweeping panoramic views of the Madrid skyline. The standout feature: walls are mobile screen-printed panels on rails, so you can reconfigure the layout of your own suite. Black or white color theme available. Comes with a bedroom, lounge, dressing room, and bathroom. Chopard amenities, kettle with assorted teas, turndown service, and Executive Lounge access.
60 sqm
Junior Suite
Ten different designer interiors at either end of the corridor on floors 2–11, each one by a different architect — from Arata Isozaki to Kathryn Findlay to Norman Foster. They have a large separate lounge with a semi-circular floor-to-ceiling window delivering wide city views. Chopard amenities in the bathroom, kettle with assorted teas, and turndown service. Executive Lounge access included.
45 sqmJunior Suite Space Club by Zaha Hadid
Two Hadid-designed suites on the first floor. All white, fluid, and high-contrast — the same otherworldly language as the Hadid standard rooms but with suite-level space and the bold line play that defined her architectural signature. Chopard amenities and Executive Lounge access.
Presidential Suite by Jean Nouvel
Two suites at the very end of the 12th floor, designed by Jean Nouvel with artwork by photographers Araki and Fleischer on the walls. Two bedrooms (one with a large curved floor-to-ceiling window), two fully fitted bathrooms, two dressing rooms, a lounge, and a large meeting or dining room. Black and white color themes available. Exceptional panoramic views of Madrid's skyline and mountains. VIP treatment with Chopard amenities and Executive Lounge access.
Two bedrooms · 140 sqmSenior Suite by Jean Nouvel
Two suites on the 12th floor with expansive views of the Madrid skyline and surrounding mountains. Larger than the Executive Suite, with a spacious bedroom, lounge, dressing room, fully fitted bathroom, and separate toilet. Black or white color themes. Chopard amenities, kettle, and turndown service included. Executive Lounge access.
90 sqmSpace Club Room by Zaha Hadid
Located on the first floor, these Hadid-designed rooms are the definition of sci-fi hospitality. White walls and floors create an almost weightless feel — fluid surfaces, daring curved lines, and a spacious bathtub that emerges from the room like a sculptural object. Three fully black versions also available (subject to availability). Queen bed. The toilet is a Stefano Giovannoni piece for Alessi, and the waste basket is famously hard to find.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.

Each floor of the hotel is a completely distinct architectural experience — 13 floors, 19 designers. Walk the corridors from John Pawson's lobby to Norman Foster's minimalist 2nd floor, Zaha Hadid's sci-fi 1st floor, Ron Arad's polymer-surfaced 7th, Marc Newson's 6th, and Jean Nouvel's colorful penthouse. Hotel staff have been known to offer guided tours of the floors.
Dinner at The Observatory on the penthouse floor, surrounded by one of Europe's largest interior vertical gardens. The combination of haute cuisine seafood dishes and the sheer spectacle of the garden and views makes it a destination experience on its own.
