In the heart of Madrid, just five minutes from the Museo del Prado, where Hieronymus Bosch’s masterpiece, The Garden of Earthly Delights, hangs among the paintings of Vélasquez, Titian and Rubens, another garden of delights awaits. The Hotel Orfila, a small palace built in 1886, has the feel of an art gallery, with its period furniture, feature marble and superb trompe l’oeil effects in the green garden courtyard. In the 1920s, the hotel was made famous by the plays staged within its walls. Today, its flowered patio invites you to dine under the stars and its tea room is imbued with English chic. This is an ideal place from which to explore Madrid at its own rhythm.
Unique in the world:
Superb trompe l’œil effects in the green garden courtyard.

From the moment we walked into the lobby til we departed we felt cared for on every level. The ambiance is calming and an oasis in a big city. We would stay again without a doubt. Thank you one and all for making our stay special.
