Luxury Boutique Hotels Madrid

Madrid was chosen as Spain's capital city in 1561, due to its location at the very heart of the Iberian peninsula. Ever since, Madrid has maintained a vibrant energy in its colorful streets and distinct neighbourhoods that rightly make it the most visited city in Spain.

Rich in culture, Madrid is one of the premier destinations for discovering European art, thanks to its three world-class galleries - the Museo del Prado, Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza and the Centro de Arte Reina Sofia. Culture vultures will rejoice in this Golden Triangle of Art, where artists such as Picasso and Goya come to life.

No visit to the city is complete without exploring Madrid's majestic Royal Palace, built in the 18th century under the instruction of King Felipe V. While the grand exterior is truly impressive, the lavish salons and chambers of the interior boast opulent decoration and incredible artwork that will take your breath away.

Wandering through Madrid, medieval streets lead onto picturesque squares, while some of the city's best tapas bars are tucked away down tiny alleys. Stop in one of these lively bars to recharge as the locals do, or get away from the tourist crowds and visit mouthwatering markets such as the Mercado de San Miguel.
