Javier Mariscal, known for his whimsical designs, played with the color palette to create what he terms "a feeling of 'it's good to be here'".

Alcántara, 63 Madrid, Madrid 28006 Spain +34 91 401 1650 http://www.zenithoteles.com |
A modern three-star hotel decorated in a pleasant functional style that has bright and spacious bedrooms. It's some distance away from the main tourist sights, but it's ideal for shopping trips and for bullfight fans as you can walk to all the shops on Calle Goya and to the bullring as well. In addition, there are good public transport links to the rest of the city. Buffet breakfast: (EUR 9.01). Review © 2007, Wcities |
