Hotel Review
Mandarin Oriental Ritz, Madrid, Spain
WHAT WE LOVE...
Madrid's grand palace hotel is full of pizazz. Enter into the bright lobby and you'll find light flooding through the crystal roof of the Palm Court, where guests in haute couture drape themselves on sofas to the sounds of Sinatra being played by the pianist. Dining here is superb, with the multi Michelin-starred Quique Dacosta at the helm overseeing everything from the room-service menu to the two Michelin-starred Deessa restaurant. Bottles of Ruinart champagne are regularly popped at the champagne bar, while cocktails are curated in the Pictura bar. A subterranean spa has a decent-sized swimming pool surrounded by marble and LED lights that mirror the formation of the stars in the sky above. Rooms and suites are lavish and come with a private butler.
