Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were spacious and very comfortable, offering a great view of Gran Via. However, there was severe noise from the heating system. The service was mixed; some staff were friendly and helpful, while others were not. The location was excellent for exploring central Madrid on foot but could have been cleaner. The dining experience was outstanding but could get busy at times. Overall, the facilities were decent, with some areas needing attention.
My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable and enjoyable overall. The room was spacious and cozy, although the soundproofing could have been better. The hotel's location was convenient, and the service provided was exceptional. However, the dining experience fell short in some aspects.
I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were perfect, and I especially enjoyed the rooftop swimming pool. The interior room I had was quiet, but lacked natural light and fresh air. The service was a bit mixed but overall friendly. The location was lovely, just a stone's throw from the Gran Via metro station. The dining experience was decent, with a range of options. The facilities were good overall.
The hotel offers spacious and very comfortable rooms, although they lack natural light and fresh air. The service was extremely friendly, but there was misinformation about the duration of our stay. The location is excellent, with modern and clean rooms, but cleanliness upon arrival was an issue. The dining experience was very good, with a nice assortment of food. Overall, a great stay with some minor drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were quite hot as they turned off the AC in October, and it was noisy, but the suite I stayed in was nice despite its basic look with a view of a tiny atrium. The service was accommodating and helpful, although there was a moment they were not initially truthful. The location was convenient for sightseeing, but the pool being unusable due to huge groups was disappointing. The dining options were so-so, and the facilities were decent.
The hotel had lovely comfortable rooms with good amenities and fast Wi-Fi, although the view was facing a wall. The service was mixed with some unfriendly encounters but overall attentive to needs. The location was fantastic, close to main attractions but on a loud street. The dining options were good but a bit expensive. Overall, great value for the facilities offered.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were even better than expected - clean, spacious, and with a lovely terrace. The staff were lovely and helpful, making my experience even better. The location was perfect for exploring all that Madrid has to offer. The dining options were good, though not all to my taste. Overall, a great choice for a stay in Madrid!
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were super clean, very comfortable, and spacious, offering a nice view of Gran Via Street. The staff was really pleasant and accommodating, always with a big smile on their face. The location was perfect for exploring the city, within walking distance of main attractions. The dining experience was really good, with a nice buffet offering lots of options. Overall, a great experience with a few minor areas for improvement.
Staying in the old wing of the building was a nice experience for us, even though the room looked basic and overlooked a tiny atrium. Not having a view didn't bother us much as we were out most of the time. However, the recycling bins behind the hotel caused some nightly noise from local businesses dropping glass bottles. The hotel's location is fantastic, very central, right in the heart of Madrid, within walking distance to all main attractions. The pool area is small, more like a plunge pool, and lacks seating.
The hotel rooms were a bit cramped, making it uncomfortable to even use the toilet sideways. The air conditioning was ineffective, and opening the window led to noise issues. However, the bathroom was surprisingly spacious and new, which was a pleasant surprise at a good price point.
The hotel had a better view than expected based on website photos but was older and not as pictured. The room faced an inner yard, and noise from Gran Via street could still be heard. The service was not consistently welcoming, with persistent loud morning knocks but friendly when approached beforehand. The location was central but often crowded and awkward due to being small for the number of guests. The dining experience offered a lovely selection but breakfast closed early, causing inconvenience.
