RIU Plaza Espana

Hotel Highlights

• Proper central location – like ‘overlooking the Plaza de España’ kind of central

• The best views in the city, right from the hotel’s own rooftop bar (and, yes, there’s a DJ)

• Terrace swimming pool, perfect for a dunk after a day walking round the city

Location

• Right at the beginning (or end, we suppose) of the Gran Vía – the most famous street in Madrid and the perfect place to shop ‘til you drop

• Just a short 12-minute wander from the Royal Palace
