Overview

This iconic building, just opposite central Madrid’s Plaza de Espana, makes the ideal stay for a trendy city break. RIU Plaza Espana offers the best of both worlds with a convenient central location, effusing a modern and luxurious flair. Experience its quirky rooftop bars with abundant city views and chic dining. You can also take a dip in the outdoor pool during summer – it’s the ultimate cosmopolitan getaway on the 21st floor.

RIU Plaza Espana conspicuously stands in the heart of Madrid along the famous Gran Via. This elegant avenue hosts grandiose buildings and a range of shops including the department store El Corte Ingles. The hotel is opposite the well-known Plaza de Espana – and just steps away from its corresponding metro station, which makes for convenient travel around the city. Enticing historical sights, such as Museo Cerralbo, are just under half a mile away. Visit this hidden regal mansion to admire works by El Greco and the decadent rococo ballroom. Under a mile away stands the Royal Palace of Madrid and Plaza Mayor – a longstanding square in Madrid featuring quaint cafes. The neighbouring cobblestoned lane, Cava de San Miguel, boasts many traditional restaurants and tapas bars – the perfect place to try a locally acclaimed calamari sandwich. Adolfo Suarez Madrid-Barajas Airport is 10 miles away from the property.

Located in a tall multi-storeyed building, the hotel is a cosmopolitan landmark across from the Plaza de Espana. Modernity takes centre stage as glossy black and white marble adorns the hallways and slick rust and pink-hued seating is scattered across the hotel. Once you step into the rooms, a tasteful contemporary theme pervades the rooms with muted almond and duck egg blue. These air-conditioned rooms feature a mini-fridge and electronic safe for added convenience. You can also upgrade to a room with a terrace, where you will be spoiled with vast city views.
