What we love about this stay
Request a park-facing room on an upper floor — the morning light through Retiro's canopy is the best alarm clock in Madrid, and those floor-to-ceiling windows earn their keep at golden hour. Don't rush breakfast; take your time, then walk straight into the park before the crowds arrive. The Prado is a seven-minute stroll, so hit it right at opening — you'll have Velázquez nearly to yourself. Skip hotel dining at night and instead wander to the tapas bars around Barrio de las Letras, just fifteen minutes on foot. Return late, let the sauna undo the day, and sink into those cotton sheets. The building's old-palace bones give the rooms a weight and quiet that most Madrid hotels simply can't replicate.

We arrived from the airport at 7 am and Guillermo welcomed us with open arms. He offered us some coffee before anything was open. He shared a map of the city with some places to visit. He also offered to store our luggage until our room was ready. The rest of the Feont Desk staff were very helpful and attentive but a special shout-out to David the bellman who was Super and always went out of his way to assist us in any way possible . The hotel, service and all of its amenities are top notch. The breakfast buffet was always fresh, tasty and constantly refilled and hot meals were made to order as part of the buffet.

Friendly welcome and efficient check in. Hotel’s lobby and bar area make good first impression Location perfect for visiting the big 3 galleries and convenient for eating out in the Salamanca district. Staff uniformly friendly, helpful and professional. Room less impressive, which prevented an “excellent” rating. Dull, cheap furniture and bathroom in need of refurb: seals on shower tray needed replacing and sink plug malfunctioning. Very good breakfast in charming dining room.
