Palace Hotel
Next to the Neptune fountain, going up the Carrera de San Jerónimo, at the Plaza de las
Cortes, we can find the Palace Hotel, One of the classic luxury hotels in Madrid.
It was built at the beginning of the XX century in order to accommodate the guests who were coming to the royal wedding of Alfonso XIII and Victoria Eugenia of Battemberg. In those days there were not many luxury hotels so it was first decided to build the Hotel Ritz and then the Palace.
This hotel has over 400 rooms, 47 suites and 1 royal suite. It offers the visitor anything he or
she could want. Even if you are not staying in the hotel, it is worth going and having a coffee in its hall with its wonderful dome.
Close to the hotel is a little park, where we can see a statue of Miguel de Cervantes.
