Michelin Guide "After a major renovation, this has a much brighter social area and contemporary style bedrooms."
Frommer's "The elegant interior... recaptures the period atmosphere of Carlos IV, with its paneled walls, marble floors, and bouquets of fresh flowers... The staff is discreetly businesslike and helpful." Full review
Fodor's "None walks along that slippery border between the classic and the modern with as much ease and grace as the Villa Magna." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Easily one of the capital’s most lavish hotels, the Villa Magna oozes sophistication."
Time Out "Although it's a modern, rather nondescript building from the outside, the lavishly entitled Villa Magna, a Park Hyatt Hotel, more than lives up to its reputation - and tariffs - on the inside." Full review
Star Service "Tucked away on a tree-lined boulevard near Calle Serrano shopping, north of Plaza Colon and the petite Hotel Orfila, this superb international-style operation has a sense of place." Full review
Gayot "Located in the heart of the Spanish capital, Villa Magna is a mix of past and present, with its classic sophistication and modern amenities."
BlackBook "Villa Magna and Tse-Yang restaurants keep the dining options fresh, but save room for booze, because the Magnum Bar draws local hotties who clink glasses and bat eyelids amid modern art."
