VP Plaza España Design
Rooftop pool and sky bar beside Plaza de España
About this hotel
The rooftop is the signature: the hotel is tagged for a rooftop pool, and the Ginkgo Restaurant and Sky Bar adds cocktails, music and contemporary cuisine with panoramic city views. It stands next to Plaza de España and Gran Via, so the main shopping street begins at the door. The spa and wellness centre gives a second water option, and two restaurants cover meals. Rooms and suites combine space and a contemporary design, with high-speed Wi-Fi, a flat-screen TV, premium coffee facilities and designer bathrooms with a bathtub and rain shower. Selected categories include private terraces with views over the skyline. Parking, family rooms and an airport shuttle are also listed, and breakfast is a buffet served each morning.

Our take
VP Plaza España Design suits couples and groups who want the roof as the main event of the evening, and it is at its best in summer, when sunset and cocktails line up. It does not suit travellers who want a quiet pool, because the rooftop is built around the sky bar and the music. Reserve Ginkgo early, and use the spa and wellness centre on a cooler day.
- ✓Reserve a table at Ginkgo Restaurant and Sky Bar before arrival
- ✓Ask for a room with a private terrace if you want the skyline alone
- ✓Use the spa and wellness centre on cooler or rainy days
Why we love it
- A rooftop pool above Plaza de España

Why guests love itThe evening is the point of this stay. Days go to Gran Via shopping and the sights near Plaza de España, and the roof takes over at sunset, with the pool, cocktails and music at the Ginkgo Sky Bar. The spa and wellness centre handles the cooler hours, and rooms with a rain shower and a bathtub finish the night. Private terraces in selected categories give a quieter way to see the skyline.
