Michelin Guide "The Tryp Ambassador has a stately atmosphere with an attractive patio typical of this exclusive district of the city."
Frommer's "The Ambassador doesn't feel like part of a hotel chain. It's far too individual and still largely resembles the elegant baronial palace it was." Full review
Time Out "Located in a former palace, the Ambassador manages to retain a vaguely baronial air despite being part of a chain." Full review
Star Service "This smart midrange hotel stands well above the Tryp Cibeles, occupying the renovated mid-19th-century palace of the Dukes of Granada." Full review
i
The 21 well-priced junior suites (twice the size of standard accommodations) are worth requesting for their superior decor, outdoor terraces, and quality finishes.
Condé Nast Traveler "Baroque flourishes scattered amid modern contraptions like bluetooth speakers and climate control touchpads. Glass-walled bathrooms, which can be shielded by curtains, are another striking feature." Full review
Wallpaper "Chicken wings roasted with fenugreek, the ever reliable suckling pig, cod tripe braised with chickpeas, and slabs of top sirloin that have been marinated for three months in a vinaigrette of meat jus." Full review

Rough Guide "Exclusive boutiquestyle hotel... Ideal for an expensive romantic escape, but not really the place for children."
Frommer's "The city's most elegant B&B, a genuine aristocratic backwater from another era." Full review
Concierge "As an aristocrat, art curator, and interior designer, Doña Marta Medina is perfect for the role of hostess of one of the most gorgeous small hotels in town."
Lonely Planet "Refined, extravagantly decorated rooms make Casa de Madrid a luxurious choice overlooking the Teatro Real." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Wrought iron, stonework, and a location just across from the Teatro Real opera house give this luxury guesthouse an elegant air befitting the building’s 18th century architecture." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "The six-room property is furnished with oil paintings of 17th-century ancestors, and the baths come with claw foot tubs and unspeakably luxurious towels and handmade soaps." Full review
Time Out "This charming and elegant luxury residence is set in an 18th century building in Plaza de la Ópera, in the very heart of the historical centre of Madrid." Full review
