“Housed within Madrid's pioneering skyscraper, the building's Art Deco bones provide a striking frame for a stay. I particularly appreciate the focus on healthy, local breakfast options, which complements the free bike rentals for exploring nearby Retiro Park. That said, reports of inconsistent air conditioning and room issues give me pause about recommending this hotel, especially in warmer months.”
