Nicd Madrid Hotel
My wife and I have stayed here many times. we enjoy the large rooms and central location, in addition compared to many other European cities, the hotel rooms in the Palace (Westin) are quite spacious for the price.
Breakfast is served in the beautiful cupola!
Plaza Neptuno is here and the Chamber of Deputies. You will enjoy it.
Unique Quality: large rooms

Historic and one of Madrid's Finest Hotels
Built at the direction of King Alfonso XIII in 1912, The Westin Palace, Madrid was recently restored to its original splendor. Set near the Prado, notable museums, and historic monuments, it was ranked as the #1 hotel in Spain in Condé Nast Traveler’s 2008 Gold List.
There are extensive facilities at the hotel, including several meeting rooms, restaurants, shops, a fitness center, a hairdresser, gift shop and a solarium The service was impeccable and the cuisine was fit for royalty. I would definately recommend this hotel for those who enjoy the finer things in life.
Unique Quality: The view was spectacular and the decor was historic with splender.

Nice Luxury Hotel beside El Prado Museum
I booked this hotel (also known simply as THE PALACE) in Madrid primary because of its location which is only 5 minutes walk from El Prado Museum, and also because the building looked good in the photographs.
It was recently extensively restored though the original building was constructed under the direction of King Alfonso XIII in 1912 --- not to worry, the plumbing was excellent despite the oldness. The rooms are very comfy with their “signature” Heavenly Bed – I did sleep well, and the bathroom was likewise very clean.
Still with jet lag, I decided to walk early in the morning and I just followed a path which in 10 minutes brought me to the Parque del Retiro – and I enjoyed sitting by the big lake and see a lone lady canoeing.
I did not book the Executive Suite, but from the pictures I do think it might work for us when we go to Madrid with the kids. The hotel itself has been named #1 in the 2008 Conde Nast Top Hotels in Spain.
The service is okay, nothing personal – they checked me in very quickly and approach was business-like. Wi-Fi is available and my room had a nice study table.
Overall a wonderful luxury hotel and perfect if you like being near the El Prado and be in a safe area in Madrid.
Unique Quality: magnificent building near El Prado

Westin Palace
Much like its neighbouring Ritz, the Westin Palace was given the royal nod by King Alfonso XIII. The hotel opened its doors in 1912 as one of Madrid's most luxurious hotels. The palace of Duque de Medinaceli was torn down for the construction of this belle époque hotel. This historic hotel is most famous for its art nouveau glass dome in its interior and continues to be a symbol of luxury in Madrid. I did not stay here, but walked in to see the beautiful glass dome. When in Madrid, why not stop by for some tea under the glass dome after a long day at the Prado?

Concierge gave bad info.
The day of the Football (soccer) match we went to the concierge in the morning and asked him if the game was sold out. He told us it was completely sold out and that if we wanted tickets he could get them for us through the black market for 175 euros each. We passed. We also went to the stadium for ourselves on the subway and found that there were plenty of tickets still for sale and we got great seats for 45 euro's each.
Unique Quality: Tried to take us for a ride.

Watch your Bill at check out.
Try staying at another hotel. At checkout they put an additional 400 euros on my bill for things like laundry, car service etc. They did take them off after we discussed it for 15 minutes. Dont listen to peoples reviews who have not stayed here. try another hotel.

Not WORTH IT!!
We booked a premium room(265 Euro's a night) online before we left and thought since there were so many good reviews on VT that the hotel would be a great place to stay. When we got to our room it was dingy run down and not a 5 star hotel room at all (see photo's). Before we unpacked we went down to the front desk and were assured that that was the upgraded room, but the women was nice enough to give us a new room that was not so run down.
Unique Quality: Very good breakfast.

where to eat in madrid
Thanks for your advice guys. Did check the site you've proposed and it looked good. What I would appreciate the most is for you to tell me where would you go, or which one would you pick and what coffee shop or tea house would you recommend me as #1 choice (to sit downa and enjying after visiting museums or some other sightseeing).
Thanks a lot,
Roxy
RE: where to eat in madrid
You may want to consider the the Westin Palace Hotel which is right across the street from both the Prado and the Thyssen Borenmisma. Very nice hotel, and how much more could a coffee cost?
RE: where to eat in madrid
Delic café in Plaza de la Paja (La Latina area), then you can eat something/tapas in any of the multiples restaurants in La Latina. If you want to sit down try NIna in Manuela Malasaña,10(metro Bilbao)
enjoy!
RE: where to eat in madrid
i recommend the cafes by the lake. i especially like "los recios" where the food is nice. you get off in the "lago" subway stop. very nice and relaxing.
also, for indian food i recommend "moha raj" in calle buena vista 42, near metro "lavapies". fantastic indian food, cheap.
