The Jerónimos neighborhood is arguably the most representative and exclusive neighborhood in Madrid, located in the center of the capital. It borders to the east with the two most well-known green areas of the capital: the Royal Botanical Garden and the Retiro Park, with its lake, multiple interior walkways, ponds, and lush groves. There are numerous monuments and artistic centers in the area, from the Puerta de Alcalá, through the famous plazas of Cibeles, Neptuno, and de la Lealtad, to the renowned Prado Museum. There are also many public institutions headquartered in this neighborhood, such as the beautiful Palacio de Comunicaciones of the Madrid City Council, the Madrid Stock Exchange, or the General Headquarters of the Navy. The area also features top-level hotel and dining establishments, such as the Hotel Ritz or the well-known Horcher restaurant. The neighborhood boasts excellent communications, adding to the city's great transport service (with the Metro and bus lines) the Atocha station, the hub for the high-speed AVE train service as well as commuter trains.
