Light above the table
The dome contains 1,875 panes, dismantled, catalogued and restored individually. The palm-shaped chandelier has also returned to its original position.12
The Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Madrid
In 2025, Madrid’s Palace joined the Luxury Collection after an extensive restoration.
A week here, month by monthBreakfast at the Palace comes with a distraction overhead. I would come for the dome and days between the Prado and Thyssen; when booking, I would choose the view before counting square metres.

Distinctions
The 5 things that matter, as guests tell them
What do The Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Madrid’s guests say? They write it in their reviews, even those who only came for a drink or dinner: we read every one and tell the 5 things that matter, from the location to the bill.
Location
Nearly every guest who mentions it is happy with it. Guests recall being able to explore on foot between sightseeing and restaurants.
Room
9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Guests like the well-equipped bathrooms; some find the air conditioning less effective than they would like.
Staff and service
8 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Those warmly welcomed remember the helpfulness; those waiting for luggage want clearer answers.
Breakfast
7 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Guests describe a wide choice, though some find that food intended to be hot arrives cold.
Price
The setting can justify the bill for an afternoon snack; during an event, waits and inattentive service make the cost harder to accept.

226 guests said so on Google, from 3 December 2025 to 3 November 2026. Google reviews of the hotel, including visits to its bars and restaurants. Peer hotels may cover different periods. The other hotels are the ones weighed for a stay in Madrid: for each we read its latest 500 Google reviews with text, or all of them where there are fewer, as of 3 November 2026. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.
The hotels we weigh it against in Madrid:
- Four Seasons Hotel Madrid
- Mandarin Oriental Ritz, Madrid
- InterContinental Madrid by IHG
- Barceló Torre de Madrid

Other hotels in the guide
InterContinental Madrid by IHG
At InterContinental Madrid, start with a practical question: will you use the Club? I would pay for it when breakfast, breaks and work need a place in the hotel. For days spent out, I would start with the room itself.
Four Seasons Hotel Madrid
Puerta del Sol is close by when you head out; Dani Brasserie waits above the rooftops when you return. I’d come for a Madrid break with late evenings and room to spread out afterwards. For an intimate, tucked-away hotel, I’d look elsewhere.
Mandarin Oriental Ritz, Madrid
The Prado outside, tea beneath Palm Court’s glass canopy on your return: a day at the Ritz does not need much filling. I’d come for museums and dinners planned with care. For a relaxed hotel where you wander about in swimwear, I’d choose elsewhere.
W Barcelona
Bofill’s sail on Barceloneta beach: 3 pools, an indoor spa and NOXE on the 26th floor.
Marbella Club Hotel
Seafront gardens, heated pools, Thalasso Spa and 28 room and villa types.
Hotel Alfonso XIII
A colonnaded courtyard, garden pool and 17 room and suite variants.
Hotel Arts Barcelona
Renovated rooms by the sea and dinner at Enoteca; public-area works through June 2027.
NH Collection Amsterdam Barbizon Palace
Arriving by train, the Barbizon Palace makes for an easy start: put down your bags and you’re already in the centre. I’d choose it for days exploring Amsterdam on foot and a glass at Vermeers Wijnkamer on my return.
Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam
Breakfast beneath the Wintergarden’s glass would bring me to the Krasnapolsky even for one night. I’d plan around that morning, then the rest of the weekend; for the intimacy of a small canal house, I’d choose another address.
Pestana Palace Lisboa
At Pestana Palace, leave a few hours unplanned. I would come for the garden and for a palace to return to after Lisbon’s hills; if every evening belongs in the centre, allow for the journey.
The One Palácio da Anunciada
At The One, head towards Restauradores, then return beneath the palace’s restored ceilings. I’d choose it for a few days away together, leaving an afternoon for the garden and its century-old dragon tree.
Portrait Milano
A piazza open to Milan, then the former seminary’s loggias and the room you choose for quiet.
