Frommer's Highly Recommended

Even while the Eurobuilding was on the drawing boards, the rumor was that this government-rated five-star sensation of white marble would provide "a new concept in deluxe hotels." It's actually two hotels linked by a courtyard, away from the city center, but right in the midst of apartment houses, boutiques, nightclubs, first-class restaurants, and the modern Madrid business world. Also close by are the Palacio de Congresos and Santiago Bernabeu football (soccer) stadium. The more glamorous of the twin buildings is the main one, named Las Estancias de Eurobuilding. It contains only suites, all recently renovated in pastel shades. Ornately carved gold-and-white beds, large terraces for breakfast and cocktail entertaining -- all are tastefully coordinated. Across the courtyard the neighbor Eurobuilding contains less impressive but still very comfortable double rooms, many with views from private balconies of the formal garden below. Added attractions for guests are two swimming pools, one outdoor and one indoor, and a Spa Elyseum, with thermal cure programs, opened in 2004.
