Spain, Madrid – Hotel Preciados
Converted from a prominent 1881 structure into an atmospheric hotel, the Preciados is located on a shop-filled pedestrian street close to the Puerta del Sol in the heart of Madrid. The original façade and grand staircase remain intact, but the renovation was significant to accommodate all modern comforts. Most of the tastefully decorated 73 rooms feature a balcony, as well as complimentary wi-fi and mini-bar.
