“The writing is on the wall at this cool location, literally. Contemporary but still classically elegant - vivid reds, ochres, chic whites, and quips from literary figures. Great roof terrace with views and mouth-watering Japanese food at the restaurant.”

Iberostar Las Letras Gran Via
"The building may be listed but inside the design is contemporary and zingy. The white, black and red ground floor is open plan, taking in a cool lounge, bar and restaurant, all of which are popular with non guests, creating a buzzy vibe."
