The Quest for the Extraordinary
Feel Madrid with Amaia Salamanca and Cristina de Middel

The quest for the extraordinary is just beginning

At NH Collection Hotels & Resorts, we’re celebrating 10 years of unforgettable guest experiences with The Quest for the Extraordinary – a vibrant series of visual episodes in which actress Amaia Salamanca and photographer Cristina de Middel unveil the beauty of NH Collection’s iconic destinations from the perspective of our beloved guests.

Return with us to our birthplace—Madrid—in this unique storytelling project to discover a stay that is both uniquely your own and an opportunity to connect with other travellers.

In these captivating images, elegant Amaia steps into your shoes as a guest (or “Feelings Collector”) to experience Madrid as a living, breathing destination of culture, sophistication and inspiration. Join her as she explores NH Collection Madrid Palacio de Tepa and NH Collection Madrid Eurobuilding and NH Collection Real Casino de Madrid, feeling every detail—be it a sunset view, an elegant lobby, or a gastronomic delight.

Capturing these moments is Cristina de Middel, the acclaimed photographer and President of Magnum Photos. Her distinctive vision elevates the imagery of our world, where architecture, flavour and emotion collide to create profoundly resonant and extraordinary moments.

Join Amaia, Cristina and all of us on this quest to rediscover what makes NH Collection unique: an emotional journey filled with artistry, experiences and discovery.

There is still a lot to feel together.
