Beautiful Palace. Easy tour. Get the Audio guide. Non-group entrance is on the side across from the art museum. If the official site shows no tickets available you can buy them from 3rd-party resellers for your day - shop around for the best price. This is well worth the visit. Great history of the Royal family and palace. Would definitely recommend.

My visit to the Royal Palace of Madrid was excellent, and I highly recommend checking it out! You get to step into history, and into the same rooms that royalty have passed through for ages. The architecture and history are impressive, and they highlighted very well in the audio tour, which greatly enhanced my visit. You can visit the palace at your own pace, so you can linger in some rooms or pass quicker through others. The armory was closed, during my visit, so be sure to check the schedule if seeing weaponry and armor are important to you. Be sure to also to check out the changing of the guard ceremony, if you can! The marching troops, beautiful horses, colorful uniforms, and fife and drum music is fun to see firsthand!

I recently visited this place, and overall, it was a very impressive experience! Every room is absolutely stunning, with so many intricate details in the interior that you can easily spend hours just admiring the craftsmanship. It truly feels like stepping into a different era, and I was blown away by the beauty of it all. However, I was a bit disappointed to find out that the Armory was closed for restoration during my visit. Unfortunately, there was no information available about this closure beforehand, which was a bit frustrating. It would have been helpful to know in advance so I could plan my visit accordingly. A quick tip for future visitors: I definitely recommend booking your tickets in advance. Even with a ticket, though, be prepared to potentially wait in line due to the large number of people. It seems to be a popular spot, so planning ahead will help make your visit more enjoyable. Overall, despite the minor hiccup, it's a must-see place with so much to offer!

An amazing palace was disappointed that the royal armoury was closed on my visit today in August and there was no signed until you got to the ticket counter. I recommend buying a ticket on today’s visits at 1030am on a Wednesday we waited 25 minutes in the sun. I would recommend a guide or the audio guide as there isn’t a great amount of information signs. Each room had one which was both in English and Spanish.

Royal Palace of Madrid, is an architectural and cultural jewel in the heart of Spain's capital. Known for its grand Baroque design and opulent interiors. The palace's exterior is an impressive sight. The state rooms were richly adorned with tapestry and golden accents. When in Madrid it’s a must see. The royal crown and throne room are amongst other highlights.
