The contemporary and electric ME Madrid is located at an enviable location at the heart of the city, the Plaza Santa Ana. You can’t get more “Madrid” than this… a busy square with a distinctly Spanish vibe, filled with locals and visitors alike, quintessentially Madrid late-diners and party revellers. But enter the doors of the ME Madrid Reina Victoria and the choice of vibe is yours… you can escape and rest, or continue living ‘la vida loca’.
The ME Madrid has some of the most contemporary, arty suites that Madrid has to offer.
Accommodations are impressive and sensual… but be aware that there are some rather minuscule rooms in the centre of the building (ones that look into a central courtyard). They are immaculately designed to fool you into spaciousness, but they are tiny. We guess that with Madrid offering so much, 24 hours a day, all guests need is somewhere to rest their heads, but we recommend opting for a higher room category, or a suite (why not?)
The jewel in the crown of this property is the ME Madrid’s Radio Rooftop, with spectacular views of the city and where the city’s fashionistas hang out and be seen. When we visited, we were treated to a full-on fashion party, full of beautiful people, go-go boys and drag queens, not to mention uber-friendly locals keen to show you their cosmopolitan and international city.

| The ME Madrid is located just a short walk from the gaybourhood of Chueca and Malasaña, where all the fun you could ever have and more is to be found… but also close to the city’s cultural experiences – the Prado Museum, Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and Reina Sofia Museum, deep in the city’s glorious, historic core. |
