Urban Madrid

Madrid

Madrid, in the center of Spain can be thought of as a sort of hyphen between the past and the future. The royal city inherited great beauty with architecture that reflects its past splendor. The city’s Mediterranean climate and its numerous parks and gardens make Madrid one of Europe’s greenest and most pleasant cities. Visitors take great pleasure in strolling through the streets with their warm and happy atmosphere created by the local inhabitants. Both day and night, the city is lively and exciting. This perpetual movement also derives from its statute as a European capital, an attractive modern business center and a desire to face the challenges of tomorrow.
The primary wealth of the Spanish capital however, lies undoubtedly in its cultural life. With its 73 museums including the famous Prado with one of the world’s largest collections of paintings, Madrid has art in its DNA and is in full view on the streets. Strollers need only keep their eyes open to enjoy it. Local inhabitants known as Madrilenos like to say « De Madrid al Cielo” which means that once you’ve discovered Madrid, only Paradise can possibly compare to it.

A timeless parenthesis

The Urban Hotel, in the heart of Madrid between the Congress of Deputies and the golden triangle of the city’s major museums, is truly worthy of its name. And yet, although it’s is rooted in the city’s urban and cosmopolitan atmosphere, the Urban Hotel can also remove itself from the hyperactivity of this bustling metropolis.
Thanks to its sophisticated and ethnic décor, entirely consisting of noble materials such as wood, leather and natural stone, the Urban offers guests a sort of timeless parenthesis. The 92suites and duplexes, decorated in subtle tones with precious materials are like veritable soundproofed and high techjewel boxes inviting guests into a world of peace and well-being.
The Urban’s prize winningrestaurant, the Europa Deco, proposes Mediterranean inspired cuisine. The fitness room, swimming pool and spa are three more good reasons to take some personal quality time far from the capital’s frenetic activity.
Although the hotel’s elegance gives it a timeless feel, it is also an establishment well implanted in the 21^st century. Its almost futuristically decorated Glass Bar is one of the city’s trendiest addresses. The Urban Hotel appeals to aesthetically minded epicurean guests in search of a bubble of luxury and calm in the heart of Madrid.

The Urban Hotel has a private museum of its own featuring Egyptian works of art.
