Catalonia Las CortesSpain

Dirección: Calle del Prado, 6 | 28014 Madrid

The Hotel Catalonia Las Cortes is set in an ancient palace dating back to the 18th century situated in the heart of Madrid, next to the Plaza Santa Ana square and Madrid’s famous Barrio de las Letras literary quarter. The hotel is strategically located just a few steps from the Congress of Deputies and five minutes’ walk from Europe’s largest art gallery and one of the world’s largest art collection, the famous Art Triangle, consisting of the Prado Museum, the Thyssen Bornemisza Collection and the Reina Sofia Art Center. Other places that are less than five minutes’ walk away are the Puerta del Sol square, the nerve center of the city, and the charming Plaza Mayor square, representative of the more traditional Madrid. The Barrio de las Letras literary quarter is the current priority area for Madrid city council, which in recent years has pedestrianized some of the area’s more typical streets, such as the famous Calle de las Huertas. This has revitalized the area, which is now full of charming little restaurants, small art galleries and antique stores. What’s more, at night there are so many places to go and sample the enormous range of tapas or have a drink in a setting where you will find a true mix of locals and people from all over the world, such is the fame of Madrid nightlife. The area is also full of renowned cafes and bars. Some of them already form part of the city’s history, such as the famous Café del Español or Café Central, a place where you can have coffee listening to the most famous jazz musicians live.
