Which is the best hotel with five stars in Madrid?

Posted on April 15, 2014October 14, 2014 by Madrid Guide

If you are going to Madrid and want to live in luxury, then you should book a five star hotel. But, which is the best hotel in Madrid, in other words, the best five star hotel in Madrid.

There are quite a lot of five star hotels in Madrid, so it is not easy to pick the best one of all of these. However, there are some hotels in Madrid which are better than others, also among the five star hotels, so here we will focus on two such hotels which we believe to be the very best five star hotels, thus the best hotels of all hotels, in Madrid.

Best five star hotel in Madrid

Hotel Villa Magna

This is a beautiful five star hotel, with lots of splendid user reviews spread around on the Internet. They have free wireless Internet, a nice SPA area with fitness room and massage treatments available, and if you are hungry they have two nice restaurants inside its doors. It is located a bit outside the inner center of Madrid, not far from the Prado Museum and the El Retiro Park, and if you want to watch Real Madrid, it is easy to get to Santiago Bernabeu from Hotel Villa Magna.

Westin Palace Hotel

Would you like to eat your breakfast with beautiful live music in the background? Then visit the Westin Palace Hotel located in the museum area of Madrid, near Prado, Thyssen Bornemisza and Reina Sofia. The interior of the hotel is really beautiful, and especially the dome is something that will take your breath away. The location of the hotel is better than Hotel Villa Magnas, but unfortunately the wireless Internet is a service that you need to pay extra for.

Where should I live in Madrid?

If you want to live in the nicest five star hotels, choose one of the mentioned hotels. If you prefer one of these based on the descriptions given by us, go for that. If you are still insecure, check the prices of both and book a room in the one that has the best prices.

If you have any further insight on the subject, or maybe you have experience from one of these, or some other hotel in Madrid, write a comment!

Where can I watch Real Madrid matches online?

Posted on March 12, 2014March 12, 2014 by Madrid Guide

I am a big fan of Real Madrid and I would love to watch some Real Madrid matches online? Can you please tell me how and where I can do that?

First of all thank you for your question! The question is not really the kind of questions we normally answer about Madrid and Real Madrid, but we will simply answer shortly and refer you to a website where you can find a much more thorough instruction on how to watch Real Madrid online.

Since most TV channels pay a lot to get broadcasting rights to Spanish football, it is not really possible to watch them just for free online. That is why you need to pay special and quite expensive fees normally to watch La Liga matches or Copy del Rey matches online. There are some exceptions, and the best option is to watch it on the Austrian TV channel Laola1. You do need to change your IP address, but if you do so you can easily watch Real Madrid play online, all their La Liga matches and quite a lot of their Copa del Rey matches.

To find out exactly how this is working and some easy instructions on what to do, visit WatchWorldCup.net and read how to watch La Liga online.

If you should later come to Madrid, read more about Real Madrid here and at that site you can also find information on buying Real Madrid tickets online.
