El Rey Palace Hotel

Frommer's Review

The dark wood paneling, uniformed porters, and black leather sofas give this quality hotel an old-fashioned feel. Yet all the rooms are large and comfortable and have bright red carpeting with dark wood furniture. The doubles have two king-size beds, a large dressing table, and a small table with two chairs. The higher floors have good views of the city, but the lower floors are quite dark. Note that the elevator stops at the seventh floor. The El Rey has a great location -- it's only about 2 blocks from the action of the Prado, but it's on a quiet street that feels millions of miles away. If you're staying longer than a month, the daily rate goes down to $56 (£28) for a room for two people.
