Michelin Guide "The restored exterior contrasts with a contemporary, colourful interior."
Rough Guide "Design-conscious hotel housed in an elegant, early nineteenth-century building."
Frommer's "One of the newer members of the eminently stylish Epoque Hotels... stands in the heart of the Gran Vía, enjoying sensational city views from its rooftop terrace." Full review
Concierge "Not overgimmicked, the 103 tricolor rooms have deep-rust walls, black chairs, and pure white bed linens, which suit the tastes of the hip young crowd who tend to stay here."
Lonely Planet "If you want to cause a stir in Madrid with a new hotel, make sure it has a rooftop bar overlooking the city." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This stunning design hotel has been built within a beautifully tiled 18th-century palacette right on Madrid’s main shopping and entertainment street."
Time Out "The new Hotel de las Letras laughs in the face of the current hotel vogue for teak and slate, and plumps instead for bold paintwork in red, orange and purples." Full review
BlackBook "A part of Epoque Hotels, walk into the renovated 20th-century building and you’ll notice inscriptions by Spanish writers on the walls."
Star Service "This hotel is housed in a imposing art nouveau-style building dating from1917." Full review

Those who sleep softly would do well to request rooms higher up, as the noise from the street, restaurant and bar can be heard on the lower floors straight through to daylight.
