為什麼人們喜歡它
- The 360º rooftop views are genuinely world-class
- Dead-center location on Gran Vía
- Guests get free (and usually priority) access to the rooftop bar
快速概覽： It’s less a hotel and more a vertical theme park for tourists who want to say they stayed in the Edificio España.
由 @120906lhg 評論: I braved the crowds on the 27th floor for this view and my heart was racing on that glass walkway. The 360-degree lights of Madrid are incredible at night. Pro tip: bring a jacket because the wind up here is no joke, but the photos are 100% worth the wait.

Reality check
The 'VIP' feeling evaporates when you're standing in a 20-minute line just to get to the breakfast buffet.
- You live for the 'gram (the glass walkway is a magnet)
- You want to be in the absolute center of the action
- You enjoy the energy of a mega-resort in a city center
清潔與維護
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally efficient daily service, though high turnover means occasional missed dust or trash.
- Bathroom hygiene: Visually clean, but frequent reports of 'sewage smells' from drains suggest plumbing maintenance issues.
- Maintenance: Modern and shiny on the surface, but elevators and AC units are prone to glitches.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel grade—clean but some guests find the sheets 'scratchy' and pillows thin.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature perfume; hallways can smell musty; bathrooms occasionally smell of sewer gas.

常見問題與隱藏小貼士
預訂前您真正想知道的一切。
Is the rooftop bar free for guests?
Yes, access is free for guests (saving you €5-10), and you usually get to skip the general public line.
Is the pool open year-round?
No. It is seasonal (June to September) and unheated. It is also very small for the size of the hotel.
Can I open the windows?
Mostly no. Windows are often locked for safety, which can make rooms stuffy if the AC struggles (a common complaint).
Is it noisy?
Yes. It is one of the noisiest luxury hotels in Madrid due to its location and construction.
How much is parking?
Approx. €32.50 per day. It's a tight garage; let them know your car size in advance.
Is breakfast included?
Not in the base rate. It costs ~€30/person if added later, so book a rate that includes it if you plan to eat there.
內幕秘訣
- ✨
If the bathroom smells like sewage, run water in the bidet and shower immediately—the traps dry out quickly in this building.
- ✨
Use the 'Rooftop Express Pass' lane if you are a guest; do not wait in the line wrapping around the block.
- ✨
The 'Glass Walkway' is terrifyingly crowded at sunset; go at 11 AM right when it opens for a solo shot.
出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡The 'sewage smell' in bathrooms is a recurring complaint due to plumbing venting issues.
💡You might wait 15 minutes for an elevator during check-out time (11 AM - 12 PM).
💡The 'double beds' are often two twins pushed together that slide apart.
💡The rooftop glass walkway is smaller than it looks in photos and vibrates when crowded.
💡Housekeeping sometimes skips refilling the complimentary water after the first night.
