Gran Vía calm with rooftop buzz

The Principal Madrid keeps the mood moody, polished, and quietly clubby, with warm lighting, plush velvets, and patinaed leather that takes the edge off Gran Vía. Days start with a breakfast buffet of home-baked breads and pastries plus hot dishes, and downtime can mean a rooftop solarium with an ornamental overflow dipping pool and outdoor showers.
