I've been told by Mandarin to only book suites right now until the renovations hit their stride.

Anyways, I've always thought the Westin - which is spitting distance from the new Mandarin Oriental - is a fabulous option.
The non-renovated rooms in the MO Madrid are dire and not worth staying in. How MO can even sell the non-suites as being consistent with the brand's standard is beyond me.
