El Retiro Dining Experience
It's a bright hotel dining room with large windows looking onto Retiro park, the kind of space set up for an easy breakfast or a calm meal rather than a big night out. Family-friendly and dog-friendly, it fills with daylight through the day at the Petit Palace Savoy Alfonso XII.
