Hotel Ritz Madrid

The Ritz is a living legend among Madrid hotels, and its incomparable facade -- declared a national monument -- and interior high ceilings and graceful columns evoke the early-20th-century Belle Epoque era. One of Les Grands Hôtels Européens, the Ritz was built in 1908 by King Alfonso XIII, with the aid of César Ritz, in a time when spaciousness and luxury were standards. Therefore, the spacious and luxurious rooms -- all now tastefully modernized -- boast large closets, antique furnishings, and hand-woven carpets. Old dress codes live on, and the hotel requests that male guests wear a jacket and tie after 11am in the public areas. Passersby may like to sample the justly famed -- if pricey -- brunch in the Goya restaurant or on the beautiful summer garden terrace. Or spoil themselves with a superb afternoon tea with cakes and sandwiches at a deluxe 32€ per head!
