This palace with its end
of nineteenth century style was built on the orders of the Duke of Santo
Mauro by the French architect Louis Legrand. It was finished in the year
1894.
The building, with its notable
French influence, was the residence of the Duke of Santo Mauro and later
became the embassy of the Philippines.
The definitive remodelling
was commissioned to the Catalan architect Joseph Joan Pera, who knew how
to combine the vanguard design which characterizes the furniture and the
internal decoration with the building’s nineteenth century style.

|
| From the old palace of the
Duke of Santo Mauro the library – now renovated as a restaurant – and the
dancing saloons with their great French windows leading into the garden
are still conserved today.
The philosophy of this hotel
is to make the client feel really like a guest, always attended to, listened
to and spoilt. The hotel aims to be a kind of house with 51 bedrooms and
salons where tranquillity and discretion make the guest feel as if they
were in their own home, while at the same time enjoying the advantages
of the most personalized services.

The hotel is located in
the heart of the Chamberí neighbourhood of Madrid, very near to
the Paseo de la Castellana, the place favoured by the nobility to construct
their little palaces at the end of the nineteenth century, a symbol of
their economic power.
The metro stations Alonso
Martínez and Rubén Darío are just three minutes away
walking from the hotel. Walking it is also possible to reach the best shopping
area of Madrid, around calle Serrano and Paseo de la Castellana.
|
| The hotel has a splendid
700 m2 garden where you will find the oldest chestnut trees in Madrid.
In summer the garden becomes a restaurant, which converts it into an immensely
attractive setting for business dinners, with its central location adding
to its attraction.
The restaurant is in the
old library of the palace. It is under the orders of prestigious chef Carlos
Posadas who offers a menu which changes every three to four months and
which perfectly combines varied international cuisine with the most traditional
and straightforward dishes.
