De Las Letras

Fodor's Review:

This hotel inspired by literature (it even has a book catalog in every room) is a seamless mix of modern-pop interior design that respects and accents the original details of the 1917 structure (glazed tiles, canopies, original wood-and-iron elevator, wooden staircase, stone carvings). Rooms are painted in tones of ocher, orange, or burgundy, with high ceilings, wooden floors, indirect lighting, and over-the-top modern bathrooms; each junior suite has a terrace with a whirlpool bath. The hotel has a charming rooftop terrace bar open to everyone. Enjoying a meal or a cocktail in the restaurant-lounge on the street level, you would never think you're around the corner from the bustling Gran Vía. Pros: Young vibe, charming spa, very happening rooftop bar. Cons: Small gym.

  • Hotel Details: 103 rooms, 1 suite, 6 junior suites
  • In-room: DVD, Wi-Fi.
  • In-hotel: restaurant, bar, gym, spa, Wi-Fi hotspot, parking (paid).
  • Credit Cards: AE, DC, MC, V
