Since opening its doors more than 50 years ago, the timelessly elegant Hotel Fénix, a Gran Meliá Hotel, has become a classic on the Spanish capital’s well-heeled scene. A symbol of luxury, comfort and top-notch service, it exemplifies the high standards of Gran Meliá’s portfolio. The hotel boasts imposing, Manhattan-like grandeur, occupying a prime corner overlooking Plaza Colón, with upper-level suites offering commanding views from terraces and whirlpool baths. Its neoclassical exterior, with white facades and red bands, evokes the phoenix's rebirth, symbolized by the bronze sculpture perched atop the building. Inside, the hotel features a palatial décor, with the grand hall, crowned by a stained-glass dome, bathed in light and elegance.
Hotel Fénix’s 188 rooms provide an ultimate accommodation experience in Madrid, each decorated in a refined classic English style with stunning city views. Located in the heart of Madrid’s exclusive Golden Mile, the hotel is home to Balmoral, its signature restaurant. This culinary gem combines classic elegance with contemporary flair, offering Mediterranean-inspired cuisine and a bold mixology experience, with tapas celebrating Madrid’s rich culinary heritage.
