Steps from Madrid's famous museums, and directly in front of the renowned Retiro Park, travellers find the classically-fronted, pop art contradiction that is AC Palacio del Retiro.
EXPERIENCE
A National Heritage building perfectly situated in the historic center of Madrid. This 50-room hotel is steps from the Thyssen, Prado, and Reina Sofia museums, making it a wonderful home base for travellers wishing to explore the city.
Step into the gracious lobby, where the early 20th-century architecture is complemented by detailed iron banisters, black marbled columns, and white marble floors. Generous rooms and suites retain their original character, but are outfitted with streamlined, contemporary furnishings and original ultra-modern artwork. All rooms come with free mini bars, butler service, and Acqua di Parma amenities.
The restaurant, Índice, is also a fusion of old and new. Here, overlooking Retiro Park, sample creative variations on traditional Mediterranean and international dishes. There is also, of course, an impressive selection of D.O. wines.
Hotel AC Palacio del Retiro is in Madrid's cultural, financial, and business center, steps from the Retiro metro station, and 45 minutes from the Madrid Barajas Airport.
