“Grand palace hotel with sung breakfasts”
Palacio de Los Duques Gran Meliá is a truly beautiful palace hotel excellently located in central Madrid, with spacious, pleasant rooms and excellent public spaces. Service is attentive — guest relations handle requests smoothly, a concierge entertains children, and taxis always wait at the door — while turndown service and a fun in-room lip balm gift are noted. Breakfast is a highlight: semi-buffet plus à la carte with live singing and warm staff recommending dishes. The one minor quirk: room water is only replenished at turndown. Otherwise reviews are uniformly glowing.
