Mandarin Oriental took over The Ritz, Madrid’s most iconic hotel. The original hotel was created by César Ritz himself on the orders of Alfonso XIII. It was a Belle Epoch masterpiece but it had fallen into decline in recent years. That decline was dramatically reversed and it’s once again a hotel fit for a king – even a very picky king.
