Madrid Pride

One of the gay friendliest cities in Europe (with one of the biggest Gay Pride festivals in the world with three million visitors), Madrid is an exciting Spanish getaway any time of the year. Same-sex marriage has been legal here for almost ten years, and the Chueca “gayborhood” is as vibrant as ever with almost a dozen gay bars and clubs and new boutiques opening regularly. The new Gran Melia Palacio de los Duques (www1.melia.com) is one of the most posh hotels to open in the past year. It’s housed in a former palace with swank rooms and excellent amenities, including a signature restaurant helmed by Michelin-starred Spanish chefs Javier and Sergio Torres. Get your art fix at Museo del Prado (www.museodelprado.es/en), featuring an excellent range of works by Velazquez, and book a table at Diverxo (www.diverxo.com/en), Madrid’s only three Michelin-starred restaurant with a young (and very cute) chef. For a nightcap, all the cool kids are flocking to Only You (www.onlyyouhotels.com/en), a stylish lounge in Chueca.
