18th-century palace that opened in 1901 as the town's first hotel, next to the monastery, with a seasonal swimming pool.

San Lorenzo's first hotel
The Dorma Victoria Palace occupies an 18th-century palace that opened as a hotel in 1901, the first in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, and takes its name from Queen Victoria Eugenia, wife of Alfonso XIII. It is at calle Juan de Toledo, 4, right in the historic centre, a few metres from the monastery and a few minutes' walk from the Real Coliseo de Carlos III and the Auditorio. The municipal tourism office still advertises it as Exe Victoria Palace; the Eurostars chain now calls it Dorma Victoria Palace, so if you are searching for one name or the other, it is the same hotel.
Eighty-one rooms and a summer pool
There are 81 rooms, which makes it one of the larger hotels in the town. The chain's page does not describe the types, so if you want a view or a particular bed, ask when you book. What sets it apart in summer is the pool: in 2026 it opened from 12 June to 12 September, from 11:30 to 14:00 and from 15:00 to 20:30. It also has more than 500 m² of meeting rooms across seven spaces, with air conditioning, wifi and audiovisual equipment.
Times
Breakfast is served from 7:00 to 10:30 on weekdays and from 8:00 to 11:00 at weekends and public holidays. Check-in is at 15:00 and check-out at 12:00, an hour later than at other hotels in the town. For groups of more than five rooms there are specific payment conditions and supplements.
No pets and no parking of its own
It does not accept pets. It does not advertise its own parking, but a public car park nearby; if you arrive by car, expect to pay for it separately. The bus station, where the Moncloa buses arrive, is on the same calle Juan de Toledo, and from Barajas airport it takes about an hour by car. Reservations, 24 hours, on 913 342 196; the hotel, on 918 96 70 66.
What you have on foot
The Royal Monastery of El Escorial and the Friars' Garden are a few minutes away. For lunch, the Mesón La Cueva is next to the Lonja, and the Horizontal, up the mountain by car.
