Best Luxury Hotels in Madrid
Elegant, vibrant and bustling, the capital city of Spain is a discoverable gem peppered with world-class museums and galleries alongside both modern and traditional bars and restaurants. Famed for its late-night culture (thanks to the likes of Dali and Hemingway), effervescent energy and fast pace, the best way to experience the city is to flow through it. Like a pebble being carried downstream, allow yourself to be moved through the baroque paths, street markets and open green spaces without resistance.
The best way to do this is via ‘La Marcha’ a local custom that involves moving from one bar to another, getting a drink (often Vermouth) and a tapa before moving to the next, sampling different styles as the night goes by. Those in the know start at the north end of the Plaza before winding through the many narrow bar-filled streets – the perfect way to immerse yourself in the culture and while away an evening.

Mandarin Oriental Ritz, Madrid

The gilt, palms and fan-shaped mirrors of the Mandarin Oriental Ritz make clear the Art Deco influence on the decor. It’s the work of French designers Gilles and Boissier, who have augmented this loose theme with lashings of modern opulence. The building dates back to the Belle Epoque era of 1910, but underwent a recent grand refurbishment, giving the 153 rooms a new lease of luxurious life. Opt for the higher-end suites to receive dedicated butler service (although all guests receive VIP treatment). The Mandarin has five venues in which to eat and drink, including the glamorous Champagne Bar and the contemporary Deessa fine dining restaurant, offering gourmet dishes.
