This charming boutique hotel is located on the Plaza de la Independencia, and within walking distance of major sights such as the Prado Museum, Reina Sofia Museum and the Cybeles Fountain. Formerly a 19th century townhouse, the rooms have huge wooden doors and high ceilings; although all are different, they are decorated in calming shades of white, grey and purple. The restaurant serves seasonal Mediterranean fare with a focus on seafood, with outdoor patio seating, and there is a tapas bar. Other amenities include free bicycle rentals, valet parking, a spa with hydrotherapy pool and Korres toiletries. The Hospes hotel group owns several boutique properties throughout Spain.
