The Ritz is the Ritz as we all know. You expect to find top quality and service and they have it. This is a traditional emblematic hotel next to the Prado Museum, behind the Madrid’s Park El Retiro (a jogger’s dream place). So it is difficult to praise the Ritz more than it has been decade after decade. They have a very courteous staff, not exactly stuffed up as you think you would find in a hotel of this category, but rather friendly and providing a home feeling every time you come through the door. It is worthwhile mentioning that all the different Ritz hotels in the world are independent, it is not a chain, and just a catchy name that has been identified with deluxe quality over the years and this Ritz is undoubtedly in keeping with that tradition. The rooms of the Ritz are full of savoir from the over hundred years of history but with every up to date convenience that’s come out in hotel industry.
