ABOUT US

La Posada del Dragón was born in the heart of the La Latina neighborhood, built upon the foundations of an old corrala—one of those traditional Madrid courtyards full of life—that has silently witnessed the passage of time and the city’s transformation since the days of the Catholic Monarchs. Every stone, every corridor, holds something of that traditional character: traces of Arab influence in its design, Castilian simplicity in its essence, and the warmth of authenticity.

Over the centuries, the building went through different uses and styles, adapting to the city’s changing needs while never losing its connection to history. In its recent transformation into a boutique hotel, that spirit has been preserved: blending modern design with elements that recall Madrid’s ancient architecture and traditions, while maintaining the idea of the posada as a welcoming refuge for travelers eager to discover the city’s roots.

Today, La Posada del Dragón invites its guests to walk through echoes of the past: rooms inspired by different moments of Madrid’s history, spaces that bring back the soul of the old corrala, and a privileged location on Cava Baja, 14, where every street and every corner feels like part of a centuries-old story—yet with the comfort of the present. Because here, tradition is not decoration: it is the very essence of everything we create.
