21 Best Hotels in Madrid
"Don’t blink or you’ll miss the unassuming façade of The Pavilions Madrid, housed in a residential-style building in what appears to be a business neighborhood. Only a picture window separates arriving guests from the reception, and the lobby is nothing more than marble lounge with contemporary art. It’s almost as if this were a chic gallery rather than hotel. Upstairs, rooms are spacious with plenty of local character, including fabrics depicting famous Madrid landmarks and framed paintings and prints of Spanish sites. Be sure to check out the Technogym-equipped fitness center and rooftop terrace and bar. Be sure to peruse the artwork throughout the hotel, which is on loan on a rotating basis from the Alvaro Alcazar Gallery in Madrid. (It's all for sale.) You can steer clear from the tourist crowds with a stay at this compact, artsy hotel." - Ramsey Qubein
