A piece from today’s NYT Travel Section on Madrid has vaulted into the ranks of the paper’s most-emailed. It seems, now that Barcelona has slumped into a deep post-party hangover, that stuffier, but more tasteful Madrid is getting its due. There’s a lot to like: a crop of inexpensive, design-y hotels, Richard Rogers’ sleek new airport terminal, and free access to the world-class collections at the Prado and the Reina Sofia–home of Picasso’s “Guernica”–every Sunday. Take that MoMA. My first stop would be the bar (above) singled out for great nightlife and a roof-deck with views of the gorgeous Basílica de San Francisco el Grande, El Viajero (The Traveler).
