This is a luxury hotel in downtown Madrid. From Wikipedia: "The hotel was developed by Belgian entrepreneur Georges Marquet by personal suggestion of Alfonso XIII, and the building involved a new material: reinforced concrete. It was constructed over a period of eighteen months, and opened to the public on 12 September 1912. At the time of its construction, the Hotel Palace was the largest hotel in Europe."
