Frommer's "The largest rooms are on the fourth floor. They are also the quietest, which can be an issue on this plaza at night." Full review
Time Out "The Persal's rooms don't quite live up to the first impressions given by the glass front and swish lobby, but thankfully they're modern, spotlessly clean and more than functional." Full review
The Telegraph7.0

EuroCheapo Editor's Pick

Request a fourth-floor room and you'll score a newly renovated shower.

Michelin Guide Star
"Behind this establishment's attractive, classical facade is a designer reception hall and an elegant social area."
Frommer's "It's located in a magnificent 19th-century Belle Epoque mansion, which has been tastefully renovated and refurbished with additional 21st-century accoutrements." Full review
Concierge "At chef Ramon Freixa's eponymous restaurant (which received a Michelin star), the amuse-bouche is actually ten different small bites, and breakfast consists of five different pastries."
Fodor's "Discreetly tucked away in the midst of the Salamanca shopping district, this is a gem of a boutique hotel. It's chic but low-key." Full review
Star Service "This hotel is certainly unique, but it is its distinctive service standards, in-room amenity roster, sedate, trendy interiors, and dining room, not necessarily its size that make it one of a kind." Full review
OysterLuxury
"A luxury boutique hotel in the well-heeled Salamanca neighborhood, the Hotel Unico is one of Madrid's most refined and exclusive stays." Full review
Afar Magazine "The Hotel Único isn’t fooling around, but it sure knows how to have a good time." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Housed in an elegant 19th-century building, it is all about good design and great service with no daft gimmicks, which is a bit of a relief these days." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Step off the chicest shopping street in Madrid and into a cosseting world of 1980s-inflected glamour." Full review

The garden rooms avoid the faintest whisper of street noise but feature exhibitionism-inducing floor-to-ceiling windows in the bathroom that might be off-putting to some.
Mr & Mrs Smith "Royalty would feel at home in this gilded hideaway with its fine cuisine, decadent decor and elaborate sculptures." Full review
