Catalonia Plaza Mayor

Less than 10 minutes’ walk from Plaza Mayor in the heart of Old Town Madrid, this hotel could be the ideal base for that city break you’ve been planning. With sights such as the Prado Museum – Spain’s main national art museum – and the Royal Botanical Gardens within walking distance, you won’t be short on things to see and do here. There’s a metro station just two minutes’ walk away, too, so getting across the city will be a breeze.

As for the hotel itself, you’ll find it’s modern, stylish, and packs in everything you’ll need for a whirlwind weekend exploring the city – and maybe even a bit more. If you’re all about keeping up with your fitness regime, there’s a small but perfectly formed gym tucked away here, as well as a Jacuzzi that’s perfect for unwinding after a day spent seeing the sights.
