Urban
Urban is a hotel in central Madrid near Puerta del Sol and the Prado Museum. The building combines old architecture with modern design and offers bright, open spaces with steel beams and contemporary furnishings.
The building is old but has been carefully restored, blending historical details with modern elements. It has long served as a landmark in Madrid's city center and is part of the Derby Hotels Collection.
The hotel displays a collection of artworks from different cultures throughout its public spaces. These pieces come from the owner's travels and tell stories of various traditions through their placement in the building.
The hotel sits on a busy street with good access to public transit and is just steps from the Royal Palace and Gran Via. The location makes it easy to explore the city on foot or by bus and subway.
The hotel houses a basement gallery with artifacts and jewelry from Papua New Guinea and Asia that reflect the owner's travels. This private collection gives the place a rare cultural element you would not expect in a standard hotel.
