Michelin Guide "Elegant public area and superb guestrooms."
Frommer's "This deluxe haven seriously challenges the city's other truly elegant hotels, including the sublime Ritz, for comfort, sophistication, and a touch of that old class." Full review
Concierge "It's understated, coolly modern, and deluxe, with all the... service a picky guest could ask for."
Travel + Leisure "Carved from a 19th-century Edwardian-style manor home, this 50-room hotel is steps from the city’s major museums." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Once a 19th-century palace, this luxurious hotel combines classic grandeur with ultra-hip design."
Time Out "With their palette of greys and browns, the rooms can seem a little dour and masculine after the frothy extravagances of the belle-epoque building in which they are housed." Full review
Star Service "This property is hands-down one of Madrid's best small hotels, along with sibling Santo Mauro, Adler and Hospes Madrid." Full review
Afar Magazine "Trendsetting and luxury themes remain. While the ornate neoclassical architecture has been lovingly preserved, the design team has complemented it with modern art and decor." Full review

Time Out "This friendly, well-equipped and good-value 134-room hotel is situated right in the heart of the action." Full review
BlackBook "Think of a Best Western and you might think boring, typical, bare amenities, well, not here at the Arosa."
Star Service "Gran Via is one of the top neighborhoods for tourists. Yes, the location is the biggest benefit here, but the rates are hard to beat in central Madrid." Full review

For the best views request one of the rooms overlooking the Gran Via, just remember to pack ear plugs.
