The Meta social network has several functions that not all users know about. All the details.

The club that everyone wants to belong to is called The Social Hub and it is a hotel, coworking... and much more!

 

We knew it was a different space, a hybrid concept that unites four-star hotel rooms, short- and long-stay accommodation, and space for coworking, but we have also found out that The Social Hub has what they call membership, which includes a monthly subscription (starting at €99 ) and gives you access to the three rooftops (bar, pool and solarium), gym, video game room, restaurant, cafeteria and play room. In the two The Social Hubs in Spain (you have them in Madrid and Barcelona) and in all the rest of Europe, which you can visit knowing that you have your home there.

Another thing is the interior: apart from the common spaces, 330 rooms await guests, who can find short- and long-term accommodation available.
