From outside the Hotel Plaza Mayor Madrid I could here accordion players across the square, birds in the trees and the chatter of people sitting and taking it easy in the square. It’s really in a nice peaceful spot on a very quiet road. There’s a great café – bar across the square called ‘Corner Café’ and they’re great for breakfasts or lunchtime snacks. I’ve eaten there many times and it’s cheap.
urn right out of the hotel and walk for 2 minutes and you’ll come to an Arab Spa that also has a restaurant and tea room. You can even get a massage there. On the whole the architecture in this quarter of Madrid is exquisite and you can pass hours just strolling the streets. The main shops, bars and restaurants are also with 5 minutes if you head to Puerta del Sol. How To Get From The Airport To The HotelVia Taxi: A taxi from the airport take about 30 minutes and cost 22 to 25 euros (including airport supplement), depending on traffic volume, and assuming you haven’t got excess baggage (that all baggage fits inside the boot and interior of the taxi).
