Review Hotel Villa Magna Madrid

Hotel Villa Magna Madrid

Reservation Information For The Hotel Villa Magna Madrid

The Hotel Villa Magna Madrid is possibly the most elite hotel in Madrid. It's rumoured that the rich and famous often stay here, although I didn't manage to spot anyone I recognised on my visit! The Hotel Villa Magna Madrid is a Park Hyatt hotel, and it is in the centre of Madrid's classiest district of Salamanca, where you can find all the elite boutiques.

It sits hidden behind a mass of lush greenery and flowers which give it ample privacy, and yet it still has direct access to one of the most important through roads in Madrid - the Paseo de la Castellana. The staff were helpful to the extreme and couldn't do enough to assist me. The ambience inside is pleasant, with people quietly chatting and the décor features chandeliers and a cream and gold colour scheme.
