One of the worst food I have in a 5 star hotel.   I was here for a short rest in the Palm Court ordered coffe and tea and a dim sum selection.   My wife's coffee is ok, not exceptional, my tea is TWG good quality as usual.  The worst is the dim sum selection.  It was like reheated by a microwave oven medium heat for one minutes.  The 2 dumplings with totally dried out edges.  The shaomai (with salmon roes on top) were also with dry wrapping. ( Please refer to the picture).  After I paid I told the waitress why I didn't finish the dim sum dish because of the bad quality and she immediately report it, which was good.  The other lady possibly the supervisor offer her apology and would like to compensate us with something but since our original intention was to have a rest before going to the museum of prado, so we did not take any offers.  Instead I emphasized that I would just want to provide comments on the bad food the hotel is serving.  The biscuits that came with the drink were very good BTW.

Wonderful setting for an afternoon tea. Service was sub-par and the food was good, albeit scones without clotted cream (going as far as calling and affirming that ordinary whipped cream was  clotted cream) is underwhelming for an institution of this calibre.

Price was good for the place and quantity of food.

Everything here was PERFECT
i would give service 5 stars, but unfortunately one of the waiters was impolite and treated me and my adult daughters and son with impoliteness for no reason. He objected to our food choices and preferences, he waved his hands at my kids whenever one of them wants to order acting busy writing on the ipad.
Finally, he asked my daughter to stop eating chocolate because, according to him, it is not allowed by the management... then i I told him that this is not true, and i had to ask other employee to stop him from serving or approaching my table.

A historic journey through palm court at mandarin oriental ritz madrid

Nestled beneath a magnificent glass dome, the Palm Court at the Mandarin Oriental Ritz Madrid stands as an enduring icon of refined elegance and timeless luxury. Since the hotel's grand opening in 1910, this exquisite space has captivated visitors with its harmonious blend of historic charm and sophisticated ambiance, making it one of Madrid's premier destinations for an unforgettable dining experience.

early 20th century origins and mid-century changes

The Palm Court was originally designed as the heart of the Mandarin Oriental Ritz Madrid when the hotel opened its doors in 1910. It quickly became a favored gathering spot for locals and travelers alike, offering a majestic setting highlighted by the iconic glass dome that bathes the space in natural light. This architectural marvel contributed to the Palm Court's unique atmosphere, blending historic grandeur with an inviting ambiance.

However, in 1960, the glass dome was covered over, which altered the lighting and ambiance that had been central to the Palm Court's allure. This change marked a significant shift in the space's atmosphere, moving away from the luminous openness that had so enchanted guests.

In 2019, the Mandarin Oriental Ritz Madrid underwent an extensive renovation that breathed new life into the Palm Court. The restoration meticulously returned the stunning glass dome to its original glory, reviving the breathtaking natural light and grand architectural details that define the space. This careful revitalization has restored the Palm Court as a beacon of historic elegance and modern luxury, offering guests a truly unique dining venue steeped in heritage.
