Zaka Investments and Evok Hotels to Open Luxury Hotel Designed by Philipe Starck in Madrid

4 December 2019 – The consultancy Savills Aguirre Newman announced that it had sold the office building located at Gran Vía 20 in Madrid on behalf of Cajalmendralejo to the French firm Zaka Investments for 44 million euros.

The property, which was home to offices of the regional government, will be converted into a luxury hotel designed by Philipe Starck. The Parisian firm Evok Hotels Collection will take over the management of the hotel, its first in Spain.

Cajalmendralejo originally acquired the building, which has eleven floors and 4,500 square meters of above-ground surface area, in 2014, when it paid 20 million euros for the asset at a public auction.
