Madrid, Spain
The Principal Madrid Hotel
  • Centrally located with all of Madrid's main sights within walking distance

  • The roof deck boasts spectacular views across the city

  • An urban chic hotel with great style

  • The Principal Madrid Hotel prides itself on its fantastic service levels

Just a few minutes from many of Madrid's most compelling sites such as the Prado and the Royal Palace, at the beginning of the Gran Via, Madrid's main thoroughfare, the luxury Principal Madrid ticks all the boxes for location, privacy and service. Entering off the street, there's a good chance the doorman will know your name as you head skyward to the sixth floor lobby. Here, a clubby feel with dark walls and large Chesterfield sofas is offset by the panoramic terrace that surely offers some of the best views in Madrid.

The bar and relaxed Atico restaurant (run by the venerable double Michelin starred Ramon Freixa) beckon sophisticated travelers and everything feels intimate and, above all, very private. With only 76 rooms, ranging from executive to suites, and measuring 20 to 50 square meters, the dedicated team at The Principal Madrid is able to give each guest individual attention and focus on service. Junior suites are particularly welcoming and have the best views in the hotel. All of the ensuite rooms are decorated in soothing tones of grey with black carpets and exude a simple elegance. Each room promises a good night's sleep after a day exploring the palaces and parks of this great city.

The Principal Madrid has a small gym, wellness room and sauna, and a fantastic roof deck with sweeping views that is much sought out by guests and Madrileños alike for a leisurely drink in the summer.
