Review Tryp Hotel Madrid
 |
You'll find several Tryp Hotels in Madrid of both 3 and 4 stars. We visited one of the most central Tryp Hotels in Madrid: the Tryp Cibeles Hotel. This is a 4 star hotel, just off the central through road of Gran Via. The hotel is in a beautiful old and elegant building, in a classical style. It's one of the most attractive buildings you can see on Gran Via.

Reception is on the first floor which you can get to either by lift or stairs. In the lift there's a weather forecast pinned to the wall. Just off there is a sumptuous lounge with a high glass ceiling and a small bar. The lounge is really comfortable and is decorated in earthy African browns, golds and yellows. There are green plants and majestic pillars and a central chandelier. It's grand, but contemporary, and there's piped jazzy music.

On Gran Via itself, opposite the hotel you'll see traditional shoe-shiners with their special chairs - polishing shoes! Also within 5 minutes walk of the hotel on Gran via there's Starbucks coffee bar and several café bars and banks. Gran Via also has several theatres. If you are prepared to walk for 20 minutes, you can even get to the Royal Palace, by first passing through Puerta del Sol Square.
