Hotel Unico Madrid

Best location off the 'golden mile' of Serrano in gentile Salamanca district. You do not want to be in noisy Centro, be in Salamanca. The Unico is a beautiful gem of a hotel in a low-build elegant building on a well-known, tree-lined street. Spacious room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, quiet, excellent bedding, lighting ( no fiddly switches) and silent air-conditioning. Daily bottles of water and coffee machine in- room. Generous and delicious buffet breakfast inside or outside on the terrace with views of garden and scent of jasmine. Easy walk to great restaurants in the area. Staff always on hand to help with everything and genuinely warm. A shout-out to Antonio at Guest Setvices. Would recommend the Unico without hesitation, and definitely over grander names like the Ritz and the Westin.

We will always now stay at Hotel Unico when in Madrid! What a gem. It’s located in Salamanca so much quieter and residential feeling…less touristy…than many of the other hotels in Madrid. But you can walk everywhere. The hotel is a gorgeous boutique hotel with a really beautiful restaurant and terrace. Our room was so elegant and cozy. It is luxurious but comfy. The people that work there were so welcoming and helpful and they really made our stay. Antonio! Antonio curated our Madrid experience sending us to more local parts of this wonderful city. It made it a much more unique experience. We were there for five nights and looked forward to coming downstairs and talking to him about the day. Andrea at the front desk and everyone who worked with her were also so kind and helpful. They set up reservations for us and anything else we needed. And every morning when we went down to our delicious breakfast overlooking the terraces Clementina welcomed us with a smile and also helped us to understand more about Madrid. Thank you all we will definately be back. So if you are going to Madrid really stay here. You will not regret it! Adios.

Quiet and posh location, very engaging staff, luxury room and fabulous dining.

We had a wonderful stay at the Unico. Perfect hotel in an excellent location with a lovely garden in the centre of Madrid. The staff were all without exception, very welcoming, friendly and professional and really made the stay memorable. Special thanks to housekeeping team who found my engagement and wedding ring and to Paola at reception who made sure I didn’t leave without it! We’re eternally grateful!

I had a lovely stay at this very elegant, delightfully understated hotel in a wonderful location, with superlative staff. The room was a little small but, that being said, was very comfortable with an excellent bathroom (and bath tub). There was one curiosity, which was that the air conditioning did not work, apparently because (as I was told when I could not operate the system in my room to cool it down) in the Winter months, the system is set only to heat and not to cool. Still, the french window-doors in my room opened easily to let the cool air in whenever I needed, and so it was an amusing rather than a real problem. Altogether a very good stay.
