CentroCentro / Cibeles Palace Rooftop
An observation terrace atop the wedding-cake Cibeles Palace, overlooking the fountain and Gran Vía skyline.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
A cheap, central panorama: the mirador gives sweeping views over the Cibeles fountain, Alcalá and the rooftops, and the building itself is a stunner.
Our read - 02
The catch is it's a small terrace with limited timed slots, and you queue for what's ultimately a brief view.
