The De Las Letras Hotel Madrid was built in 1917, and it is located in one of the nicest areas of the city. Cinemas, theaters, and cafes are all close by, and the Gran Via is the best reflection of dynamic Spanish culture.

Past, present, and future unite in this hotel. The stunning combination of history and modernity within the building does not create a conflict, but rather they complement each other perfectly. The rooms in the hotel employ the design elements of light and color to great effect, while high ceilings and wide windows let in plenty of natural light. The walls are painted in shades of ocher, burgundy, and orange, which differ from floor to floor. A unique and charming feature of this hotel is that all of the room walls are decorated with inscriptions of quotes from famous writers and poets.

When it comes to finding a cheap hotel, Madrid can be a challenging city because you usually end up paying a lot for accommodation in the best areas of the city. However, there is one small gem that is relatively bargain-priced, and also located next to one of Madrid's big tourist attractions, the Plaza Mayor.

This hotel is fittingly called the Hotel Plaza Mayor, and it is a cozy, two-star hotel that offers some nice bonus services and a warm welcome. The rooms feature Art Deco bedspreads and beds that are very big by Spanish standards. Wood floors, modern lighting and balconies add charm to the rooms, and the bathrooms are complete with modern hardware and even his-and-hers sinks. The rooms have flat-panel TVs, and there is a large cafe-like sitting area downstairs where a breakfast buffet is served.
