Fantastic staff who were attentive from the moment you arrived to departure. The concierge was also excellent with some great recommendations. The roof top bar was fabulous with views to the palace and the cathedral. The only negative was the price of the hotel breakfast but there are plenty of fabulous spots to go outside the hotel . This is a truly fabulous hotel but what sets it apart is its staff.

Beautiful property, excellent room and location. The hot tub was closed for the season, but would have been wonderful to use I the 50-60 deg F weather, especially at night. Free use of a car for a day and shuttle throughout Madrid was a terrific amenity. Breakfast was wonderful, but the dinner food was a disappointment for some of our party. The staff was most friendly and accommodating.
