Riu Plaza Espana - A 27-floor Art Deco hotel with rooftop pool and 360° city views

Located in Madrid's emblematic Edificio España on Gran Vía, this 4-star Madrid hotel occupies a neo-baroque building designed by Julián and José María Otamendi. The 27-floor Riu Plaza España features 550 rooms equipped with air conditioning, mini-fridges, electric kettles, and free Wi-Fi. A 20th-floor outdoor pool and fitness center provide recreational options, while the Cervantes restaurant on the fourth floor overlooks the square. The property houses El Edén Gastrobar for tapas and the dramatic Skybar spanning floors 26 and 27. The high-ceilinged lobby showcases a contemporary chandelier with 300 glass bay leaves amid classical Greek architectural elements. Situated in Malasaña district, Riu Plaza stands within 0.5 miles of Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, and Templo de Debod. The location offers direct access to cafés, vintage stores, and independent boutiques.
