Fodor's Expert Review Pestana Plaza Mayor
Calle Imperial 8, Madrid, 28012, Spain
Opened in 2020, Pestana is the newest outpost from the Portuguese boutique hotel chain and the only situated directly on the Plaza Mayor. It has a pool, spa, fitness center, architectural elements from the original 17th-century Casa de la Carnicería, and—crucially—double-paned glass to keep out ambient noise. Leisurely breakfasts in the ground-floor solarium are a highlight.
PROS
- upgraded rooms have balconies overlooking the plaza
- sun-drenched breakfast area
- cloud-soft beds and linens
CONS
- newfangled interiors clash with the historical building
- spa has no chairs for lounging by the pool
- service foibles
