The Bar/Lounge at Hotel Palacio Del Retiro, Autograph Collection

"The effect is of a baronial mansion, with maids in starchy uniforms, concierge staff at your beck and call, and soaring Tiffany windows above an original curving stairwell"

"A lounge bar and restaurant provide a sophisticated setting and a small spa offers beauty treatments and massages"

"The cozy lounge and bar is on the ground floor of the hotel, in the rounded corner of the building, where the large windows provide views of the park as guests sit on sleek leather couches and sip coffee in the morning, with stronger drinks beginning at noon"

"The Suite Bar is a pleasant, casual spot to start your evening with a well-made gin-tónic and some light Mediterranean-inspired bites"
