A stone's throw from Madrid's "Golden Triangle" of museums, Artrip is a little-known gem of a hotel ideally suited to art-loving travelers. There's usually a small art or photography exhibit on the premises; other perks include a well-stocked breakfast buffet and updated bathrooms.
The splashiest hotel in this part of town, CoolRooms is situated five minutes on foot from both Sol and Antón Martín market. Occupying a 19th-century palace—private courtyards, grand wooden staircase, baroque crown molding, and all—the hotel also boasts extremely here-and-now perks like proprietary electric scooters (driver's license required) and white-tablecloth breakfasts (served until a cool 1 pm) by the courtyard pool.
Rooms in this inexpensive and cheerful hotel overlooking Plaza de Antón Martín have turquoise walls, crimson sofas, and multicolor headboards. Some have skylights and wrought-iron street-facing balconies.
