    The Rose Garden (La Rosaleda) is located in the southeastern part of Retiro Park in Madrid. It is a well-designed garden where you can take beautiful pictures and enjoy some quiet time.

    El Retiro Park is known for its beautiful gardens and has several areas with roses that you can enjoy. One notable spot within El Retiro Park is the Rosaleda (Rose Garden) Cecilia Rodríguez Díaz, which is a dedicated area within the park where you can find a variety of roses in different colors and fragrances. It's a lovely place to take a stroll and admire the beauty of the roses.

    Very nice in may, everything is blooming. Be careful though of the crowd during the weekend but so much better and less crowded than the rose garden from the retiro

    Beautiful garden, not at the same level than others we've visited in England or Austria, but still relaxing, quiet and worth your time if you visit the Retiro Park. Just hope you'll be there when the temperature is less than 40 degrees ;-) And if not, so as usual, sun screen a hat and a lot of water.

  • 5/5 sara g. 1 year ago on Google
    There are many varieties of roses in this beautiful garden. Definitely worth checking out.

    It's best blooms and very green in Spring. Early Autumn you can still see some roses. It's a fabulous quiet place (during certain hours of the day) A nice place to relax, sit and chat while enjoying the blooms and aromas of the vast variety of roses :) Definitely recommend checking it out - especially in Spring

    One of the nicest rose gardens that I have been too, the smell coming off the roses was amazing their scent filled the air. Something to bear in mind is that the garden isn’t very shaded so I’d say avoid at the hottest times of day. The 2 fountains & pond add to the impressiveness of the garden.

  • 5/5 Tyler C. 6 months ago on Google • 86 reviews
    Really lovely Rose garden. Great place to bring visitors or for a romantic date. Best at morning or sunset. Bring a beverage and a blanket!

  • 5/5 Rober R. 2 months ago on Google • 59 reviews New
    Exceptional Garden and free you should visit it when arrive Madrid

  • 4/5 Aya M. 6 months ago on Google • 38 reviews
    Entry is free. The garden is beautiful and quiet and the smell of roses is dominant and soothing, although the garden is not well taken care of as the fountains are a bit dirty/mouldy and there are many rotten flowers.

  • 5/5 I D. 7 months ago on Google • 37 reviews
    La Rosaleda Is beautiful. It’s full of roses and there are peacocks waking around

  • 5/5 Matteo C. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best rose gardens I’ve ever seen. If I remember correctly there are at least 40 different varieties of roses! Must see

  • 5/5 Ana Belén A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Magnificent place to walk, run ... disconnect. The idea came from the mayor Carlos Prats, who suggested the need to make a fashionable rose garden of those existing in various European parks. (Original) Magnífico sitio para pasear, correr... desconectar . La idea partió del alcalde Carlos Prats, quien sugirió la necesidad de hacer una rosaleda a la moda de las existentes en diversos parques europeos.

  • 5/5 Marcela R. 2 years ago on Google
    Really beautiful location in the middle of the Retiro Park. Just be sure to visit during the right season (May) otherwise the roses will be dying already. Being there made me feel like I was in a fairytale…

  • 5/5 Teresa R. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Alexander B. 2 years ago on Google
    I think it was a ready off-season when I visited in late September as the flowers were not in full bloom anymore. Nevertheless this is a great place to visit and to hang out

  • 5/5 Maria Laura B. 2 years ago on Google
    Incredible roses of all types!

  • 5/5 Heather W. 2 years ago on Google
    It's winter time and there's were only a handful of bushes that still had flowers on them, but it was still a beautiful walk through the garden. There's are beautiful fountains and benches to sit at and have a break.

  • 5/5 Ian F. 1 year ago on Google
    All the reviews say it...beautiful, colourful, meditative and Charles Asnavour has roses named after him here!! You'll spend a great deal of time in the Retiro Parque so make sure some of it is here.

  • 5/5 Alexandra D. 1 year ago on Google
    I was mesmerized by this garden. It is just mind blowing. I don’t think I have ever seen some kinds of roses like this before

  • 5/5 Ana 2 years ago on Google
    It is a beautiful garden with an amazing number of roses. Although the place is being fixed due to last year’s snowfall, it has room to enjoy the paths that connect the different flower beds.

  • 4/5 Gianluca M. 1 year ago on Google
    nothing to say. Just a beautiful roses garden in the Retiro Park in the heart of Madrid Definitely worth a visit

  • 5/5 Cristian M. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely stunning! This is a must-see for anyone even remotely curious about what a rose garden should look and feel like. The area isn't very large but there is a wide variety of roses that come in all shapes and colors. The colors and scents are simply spectacular. Do avoid it or be careful if you're visiting during a hot summer day as there are very few places where you can actually take cover in the shade.

  • 5/5 Attila R. 4 years ago on Google
    A lovely and colorful garden with a lot of different types of roses. It seems it is in good hands, it was organized and clean. While the other areas of the park can be crowded and noisy this garden usually remains calm and peaceful.

  • 5/5 Liāna L. 11 months ago on Google
    So beautiful!! A perfect balance of being groomed but still with some of the wildness of Nature. Also I love the fountains.

  • 5/5 Neil A. E. 11 months ago on Google
    Superbly pretty rose garden, many varieties with little paths you can wander around and a fountain. Definitely worth seeing.

  • 5/5 Alex 10 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nic 6 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    A beautiful quiet place full of rose aromas and the sound of water fountains. There’s no shade from the sun here once you leave the main woods. So avoid hottest times of day if not used to heat.
