InterContinental Madrid: meetings and gala dinners on the Castellana

The InterContinental Madrid is a five-star hotel with 302 bedrooms on the Paseo de la Castellana. Its 608 m² Plata ballroom takes 600 people theatre style or for a banquet and 630 for a reception, and it has a terrace for events. We propose it for leadership meetings, mid-sized conventions and gala dinners of up to 600 people.

What events does the InterContinental suit?

It is a classic business hotel in the Castellana financial district. It fits leadership and board meetings, client presentations, conventions of up to 600 people, awards ceremonies and gala dinners. The terrace allows an outdoor reception in spring and autumn without leaving the hotel.

Getting there

The address is Paseo de la Castellana 49. The nearest metro station is Gregorio Marañón (lines 7 and 10), and Nuevos Ministerios station, with a direct link to the airport, is a short distance away. Atocha is 3 km away and the airport about 11 km by road.

Production tips

  • Choose the right room for the format. Plata is the option for a plenary or dinner of up to 600; Escoriales and Granados work for receptions and mid-sized sessions.
  • Plan the terrace reception with a plan B. It depends on the weather: keep an indoor room reserved until the day before.
  • Plan for parking. With 70 spaces, guests should arrive by taxi, private hire car or shuttle: say so in the invitation.
  • Block the rooms early. In trade show and congress weeks, hotels on the Castellana fill up well in advance.
