Perched above the pulse of Gran Vía, The Principal Madrid is where neoclassical elegance meets grown-up glamour. Step through its grand doors into a world of quiet sophistication—vaulted ceilings, iron balustrades, and light that lingers just so. This isn’t just a hotel; it’s a love letter to the city written in soft tones, velvet armchairs, and perfect lighting.
Upstairs, rooms are hushed and handsome, many with private terraces or Juliet balconies that open to the Madrid skyline. Wake slowly to the silhouette of rooftops and spires, and drift into the day wrapped in Egyptian cotton and understated luxury.
But the soul of the hotel lives above it all—La Terraza, a rooftop sanctuary where Madrid sparkles at your feet. Sip something chilled as the sun dips behind the city, or stay late, when the skyline turns cinematic and the cocktails get bolder.
Explore Madrid’s attractions on foot—affordable public transport, numerous taxis, and charming streets make driving unnecessary. If you do bring a car, on-site parking is available for €39 per night. Visit the hotel first to drop off your luggage and get parking directions.
