The Madrid EDITION

But even in the face of tough competition from the Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental Ritz, Rosewood Villamagna, et al, the new EDITION is plainly the cherry on the cake—or the prawn on the paella.

Its 200 rooms and suites are plush and stylish in cloud-like white-on-white, its spa and fitness center are state-of-the-art, and, in keeping with the Schrager philosophy, its restaurants and bars are among its most dazzling spaces.
