On Gran Vía 70, in the Universidad quarter of Madrid's Centro, inside the Catalonia Plaza España hotel next to Plaza de España.
Nearby
Universidad is the student-facing edge of the centre, young and busy and cheap in places, ambitious in others. The eating shifts block by block, from taverns pouring vermut to kitchens doing genuinely contemporary cooking. It runs into Malasaña and Gran Vía, and the mood changes with it.
