A 4-star hotel in the east of the Retiro district, away from the bustle of the centre and with private parking. The Hotel Crowne Plaza Centre Retiro has a restaurant, a bar, a terrace and a garden. It is a practical option if you arrive by car or prefer a more residential area and a quiet night’s sleep.
