Frommer's "One of the largest, most ornate Victorian-style hotels in the city, with politicians, artists, and celebrities among its distinguished clientele." Full review
Concierge "Art lovers will find this the perfect base, with the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and the Prado across the street and the Reina Sofía nearby."

Ask for a room at the front facing the Neptuno fountainthe higher the better, as the top floors have great views of Madrid's ornate central post office.

"The 467-room Westin Palace is one of the top hotels in Madrid, and is housed in a gorgeous historic building that was commissioned by the king in 1912." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The sheen has never really worn off, thanks to its location just off the Paseo del Prado and to its grandeur, apparent in the marble-floored lobby." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Overlooking the Neptune Fountain and its quiet plaza, the Palace combines classic opulence with cutting-edge facilities."
Star Service "This perennial favorite is the perfect fit for travelers who drive Range Rovers, as opposed to those over at the Ritz who tend to get chauffeured around." Full review
