The Restaurant at Hotel Urban

"There's a cool pool on the roof deck, along with La Terraza del Urban bar; other drinking and dining options are the first-floor Glass Bar and Restaurant Europa Decó on the ground floor—all happening options for a night out in the city center on the Paseo del Arte"

"Cebo, the hotel's market-based Mediterranean restaurant, is noted in the Michelin guide and (mark our words) is on track to earn a star"

"Nonetheless, Hotel Urban remains a solid pick, in part due to its convenient location in the heart of Madrid, within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and nearly every main sight the city has to offer"

"Businessman Jordí Clos has created a five-star hotel that feels more like a fashion forward boutique hotel: statues from Papa New Guinea greet you when you enter; crowds stand on lighted floors sipping gin and tonics at the glass bar encased by windows; reservations fill the popular Europa Decó restaurant; there's an Egyptian Museum and collection of ancient art; and on the roof you’ll find people swimming in the open air pool that sits close to El Cielo, the romantic rooftop dining room"

"Indeed, the city almost steals the show at two of the hotel’s four hip restaurants and bars; those located on the rooftop attract the cognoscenti as much for the views as for their acclaimed cocktails and bites"
