November 9 2007: Madrid Sold me on herself by the way. The day I arrived was the start of the bull fights so the whole city was bustling. This hotel was a great location for site seeing walking or by car as the main vain of the city are just a few blocks away. (The hotel will not have parking) The breakfast was good and views are great from that room. I was new to the "high tech" rooms and did not know you put your key card in (by the door) for the lights so they automatically turn off when you leave and take your key. Shower was a little tricky too! 3 knobs that do what? Over all though a great hotel.
Date of stay: February 2007

The Petit Palace Alcalá Torre hotel is situated in Alcalá St. in Madrid, next to Puerta del Sol. This new property, opened in January 2006, is an early 20th century building close to the major monuments and important sights such as Plaza Cibeles, and the three most important museums, Prado Museum, Thyssen Bornnemisza and Contemporary Art Reina Sofía. On-site amenities include a complimentary Internet Point.
