FIVE-STAR
CUISINE
From the beginning, experimentation and care have
been two principles for NH Hoteles and it has daily
indulged the taste in its almost 400 establishments,
as well as in its revolutionary cuisine concepts. From
breakfast time until late evening having ‘drunch’ with
Gin&Chicken, we pay special attention to palate.
Evidence of this is the molecular cuisine of Spanish
talents such as Paco Roncero, Óscar Velasco, Javier
Loya or Enrique Martínez, as well as other great chefs’
creativity from the NH house, such as Juan Carlos
Mateus from NH Bogotá 93.
