About the property

What makes The Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Madrid worth the points.

The Palace occupies Plaza de las Cortes 7 in Madrid’s Centro district, directly facing the Neptuno Fountain and embedded in the UNESCO-accredited Paisaje de la Luz. Originally opened in 1912 as a grand palace hotel, the property underwent a two-year restoration completed in 2025 under Lázaro Rosa-Violán Studio, preserving Belle Époque architecture while introducing contemporary interiors across public spaces and guest rooms. Its location places it within the Golden Triangle of Art, a short walk from the Prado Museum, Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, Retiro Park, and Plaza Mayor, with Puerta del Sol reachable in about ten minutes on foot and the airport 13 km away.

Timing

When to go.

Live · you're in July
Best time
Mar–May, Sep–Oct

March to May and September to October offer mild temperatures around 15–24°C/60–75°F and relatively low rainfall, ideal for sightseeing and often cheaper than peak summer.

Avoid
Jul–Aug

July and August should be avoided because average highs frequently exceed 32–35°C (90–95°F), with heatwaves over 40°C/104°F, making sightseeing uncomfortable; this peak-summer period also brings higher prices and heavier crowds.
