This Candlelight at Hotel Palacio de Santa Paula (Autograph Collection) offers a candlelit concert with a program of very well-known classical works (Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven, etc.) in a former convent converted into a luxury hotel right on Gran Vía. For about 60 minutes, a string quartet performs the pieces while the audience sits surrounded by LED candles, in a historic cloister or salon with very pleasant acoustics.
The cycle's sessions are organized at various times, with admission from €26 depending on the zone, and are open to children over 8 accompanied by an adult. It is a different way to enjoy classical music, halfway between a concert and a sensory experience in one of the city's most singular buildings.
The Candlelight format at Palacio de Santa Paula has an added attraction: you not only enjoy classical music in an intimate setting, but you also access a building that combines a 16th-century convent cloister with contemporary luxury hotel architecture. That mix of ancient stone, arches, and modern design becomes another "instrument" of the concert: the candlelight reinterprets the space and makes it almost like scenery.
