Heritage Madrid
Belle Époque antiques-forward luxury. Think porcelain lamps, art deco bureaus, parquet floors, and minibars stocked with wine and champagne. Quiet and residential rather than grand-lobby flashy. More private club than grand palace.
Ask for a room facing south or west — the hotel catches good light all day
Why It Matters
A Relais & Châteaux property and sister hotel to the celebrated Hotel Orfila, with interiors by star decorator Lorenzo Castillo and a restaurant overseen by two-Michelin-star chef Mario Sandoval. The building itself is listed and protected as architectural heritage by the Commission for the Protection of Historical, Artistic and Natural Heritage.
Heritage Madrid occupies a protected early-20th-century Belle Époque townhouse in the upscale Salamanca district — one of the quieter, more residential parts of the city. The interior was entirely designed by Lorenzo Castillo (AD Award for Best Decorator 2014), who layered lacquered wood, polychrome marble, velvet, and hand-painted wallpaper with a serious collection of 18th- and 19th-century European antiques. The restaurant is run by two-Michelin-star chef Mario Sandoval, which is a genuine draw well beyond the 46 guest rooms.
Where You'll Stay
6 room types available
Classic Double Room
The entry-level room, and honestly smaller than you'd expect from a 5-star — 22m² is compact. But the execution is good: King or twin beds, 19th-century furniture, walk-in shower (no bath), city views, and all the standard Heritage amenities. Works well for a short stay if you're not planning to spend much time in the room.
King or Twin · 22 sqm
Deluxe Double Room
At 30m² these are noticeably more spacious than the Classic or Superior. King or twin configuration, with an elegant balcony or viewpoint, a luxurious bathtub, and a separate shower. All Deluxe rooms face outward. The upgrade from Superior is mainly the extra floor space.
King or Twin · 30 sqm
Deluxe Family Room
The largest configuration at 65.5m² — two connecting rooms: a Deluxe double plus a separate suite with its own bedroom and a 16m² living room (with a sofa bed). Marble bathroom with whirlpool tub and shower. Genuinely apartment-like, and the most comfortable option for families or groups wanting a full living space.
King or Twin (x2 rooms) + sofa bed · 65.5 sqm
Family Room
Two connecting rooms offering up to 49.5m² total for up to 4 guests. Two full bathrooms — each with marble showers, and one with a bathtub. Solid choice for families who want actual separation between spaces rather than a fold-out sofa situation.
King or Twin (x2 rooms) · 49.5 sqm
Junior Suite
At 33m², these are the pick of the non-family options. King or twin, with a comfortable sofa, dedicated work space, and — the best part — a balcony overlooking Calle Príncipe de Vergara. Great for a longer stay. Doubles as a haven if you want space to breathe without going full family-suite size.
King or Twin · 33 sqm
Superior Double Room
A step up at 24.5m², with a bathtub added alongside the separate shower. All Superior rooms face outward (exterior-facing), and some have a balcony or window ledge overlooking the street. Good choice if you want a bath without going full Deluxe.
