Palacio de los Duques Gran Meliá is a 5-star luxury hotel located in the heart of the Madrid of the Austrias, a short walk from the Royal Palace and the Royal Theatre. This monumental hotel is housed in a former 19th-century palace and celebrates the dynasty of the Dukes of Granada de Ega. The experience is a blend of history, art, and contemporary luxury, with pictorial tributes to Velázquez and lush gardens that offer an oasis of peace.

The rooms, spacious and bright, boast high-end mattresses, Egyptian cotton sheets, and private butler service (for RedLevel Suites), ensuring a stay of impeccable comfort and service.

The hotel also offers a spectacular rooftop terrace, with a seasonal infinity pool and a bar that offers a breathtaking view of the Royal Palace, the Almudena Cathedral, and the Casa de Campo, a chic and panoramic gathering place.
