Madrid
Business Traveller Middle East
|December 2018
Art, plazas and tasty churros all make for an enjoyable short stay in the Spanish capital
1 Royal Palace of Madrid
From my ninth floor terrace at Barceló Torre de Madrid (Tried & Tested, October issue), the official residence of the Spanish royal family looks impressive but it’s only close up that you grasp the sense of scale – it spans 135,000sqm, contains 3,418 rooms and features art from Carvaggio, de Goya and Velázquez among others.
The admission fee is a reasonable €11, though if you want to see all it, you might not have much time for anything else – but you can’t visit Madrid and not see the largest royal palace in Europe by floor area.

2 Museo Reina Sofia
