The hype
Guests are obsessed with the Le Labo scent, the white-on-white decor, and the rooftop vibes, but many feel the service doesn't quite match the astronomical price tag.
The Madrid Edition
$500-850 / нощ
Запазете го, ако You want to be the main character in a high-design Madrid movie scene and don't mind paying a premium for the privilege.
Защо хората я обичат
- The rooftop pool is the largest in Madrid and an absolute scene at sunset
- Ian Schrager's signature 'Dune-like' lobby design is undeniably cool
- Location is unbeatable—steps from Sol but feels like a secluded design fortress
Бързо резюме: A stunningly beautiful design hotel where the 'cool kids' vibe sometimes eclipses the service speed and sleep quality.
Преглеждано от @ptb.ae: I stayed in the Penthouse at The Madrid Edition and it was surreal. Swimming in my private heated pool while looking out over the Madrid skyline in winter was an experience I'll never forget.

Reality check
You might have to fight for a pool chair, and if you're sensitive to bass, the 'party' atmosphere bleeds into the room experience.
- You care more about aesthetics and 'vibes' than absolute silence
- You want to be in the dead center of Madrid but inside a luxury bubble
- You love a hotel bar that doubles as a local hotspot (Punch Room & Oroya)
Чистота и поддръжка
8.8
- Housekeeping: Generally excellent, with twice-daily service (turndown included).
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling, though the open-concept design means water can splash onto the bedroom floor.
- Maintenance: Mostly pristine, but white surfaces show scuffs quickly; some reports of broken toilet flushes.
- Linens & towels: High-quality, plush, and replaced frequently.
- Odors & scents: The entire hotel smells strongly of the signature Le Labo Black Tea scent (love it or hate it).

Съвети на инсайдъра
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 5 minutes to 'La Mallorquina' for a fraction of the price.
- ✨
The 'Punch Room' bar is hidden near the lobby and is often quieter/moodier than the rooftop.
- ✨
Use the side entrance on Plaza de las Descalzas to avoid the busy main plaza crowds.
5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The 'Terrace' rooms on the 1st floor have zero privacy; guests above can look right down at you.
💡The bathroom sinks are often in the bedroom (open plan), which can be annoying for couples.
💡You might have to wait 30+ minutes for a pool chair even as a hotel guest.
💡The 'white on white' decor shows wear and tear easily—scuff marks are common.
💡The elevators are hidden behind panels and can be confusing to find at first.
