Madrid Travel Guide

Hotels in Madrid


There are many hotels in Madrid. We will highlight many in the future.

If you have very limited time, you might well do no more sightseeing than this. However, monuments are not really what Madrid is about, and to get a feel for the city you need to branch out a little, and experience the contrasting character and life of the various barrios . The most central and rewarding of these are the areas around Plaza de Santa Ana and c/Huertas , east of Puerta del Sol; La Latina and Lavapiés , south of Plaza Mayor, where the Sunday market, El Rastro , takes place; and Malasaña and Chueca , north of Gran Vía. By happy circumstance, these barrios have some of Madrid's finest concentrations of tapas bars and restaurants.
