The Bar/Lounge at The Principal Madrid

"It’s all topped off by a rooftop terrace and bar, though those seeking refuge from the din of the city may retreat to the wellness suite, with its fully equipped gym and sauna"

" The hotel has a Spanish restaurant with a Michelin two-star chef behind its innovative menu, plus a rooftop terrace with a cocktail bar and 360-degree city views"

"You can also rub shoulders with the city’s smart set in the nearby Salesas neighborhood, with its great shopping by day and lively bars and clubs by night"

"The only place that overshadows it—quite literally—is the next floor up: with its fountainside lounge area and Parisian café–style deck, the rooftop terrace just might boast the best sunset views in town"

"Conveniently, there are two restaurants on site: laid back Atico, the brainchild of two-Michelin star chef Ramón Freixa, is open 24/7, while La Terraza is the lush indoor-outdoor garden terrace attached to the hotel’s prized solarium—complete with lounge chairs and outdoor showers for cooling off"

"But, the real showcase comes when guests climb to the seventh floor roof terrace, where red fabric umbrellas and lounge chairs are accompanied by a bar and snack service menu"

"You can also rub shoulders with the city’s smart set in the nearby Salesas neighborhood, with its great shopping by day and lively bars and clubs by night"

"Two floors of epicurean delights crown this refreshed 1920s urban stay: the refined restaurant, cosy cocktail bar and fabulous rooftop terrace all come with sweeping city views"

"As one of the only rooftop bars in Madrid offering unimpeded 360-degree views, it’s no wonder there’s always a wait to snag a table at Terraza"

"The restaurant and lobby lounge occupy the top floors, where every balcony, nook, and niche with a view is given over to dining and imbibing"
