Wellington Hotel

Great location in Salamanca right next to the Retiro park. Wellington location offers both tranquility and the feeling of being very central. Many options of the top restaurants, bars and shopping. Old school luxury and service without being stiff. We upgraded to Wellington Club which I can highly recommend.

Nothing really its Classic 5 star hotel with some years under operation yet clean and modern, but not a super chic design hotel.

The location is lovely and near all the nice upmarket shops. The room service is fast and efficient coffee in the morning arrives in 5 minutes, for me that’s important. They have an excellent physiotherapist in the spa who has really helped me during my stay. The gym is extremely well equipped and they have very good instructors. It has a cross fit room, Pilates room with reformer and Cadillac. Really excellent in that regard. Oh and a pool too! Last night I had an excellent meal at the Vasco restaurante on the property, excellent fish, croquettes and a Pavlova to die for. The have a vegetable garden on the roof as well. They have Molton Brown products in the bathroom which are lovely.

The air conditioning in the rooms need an upgrade but it’s not too bad it’s only that Madrid gets very hot at this time of year.

Always perfect

It has the best pool in Madrid, which is most welcome during the hot days of summer. The restaurant by the pool is excellent, as well as the margaritas and mojitos. Excellet location in the heart of the Salamanca district, next to the Retiro park

The pool can be overcrowded, specially on weekends. Prices are not cheap

Location

Old fashioned room. Too much air conditioning
