This is hotel is the standard big hotel with nothing particular to brag about and nothing to complain about. We stayed four nights and found it very convenient to the metro for getting around. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Our room was always clean. I would stay there again.

This hotel is ideally located in a quiet pocket of the city but within walking distance from the upmarket shopping hub,bars & restaurants. A very friendly & helpful team at the Front Desk who realised that it was a long haul from Dubai & made sure that we got our room within minutes after arrival. The room though a bit... More

On short-notice, we reserved a room for the weekend (Friday-Sunday) at the Melia Galgos in Madrid. Located in the tony Salamanca neighborhood, it was a great choice. The hotel is just a block to the U.S. Embassy, for those with business there, you couldn't find a more convenient place to stay. There is a Catholic church literally across the street,... More

Arrived at 2 pm. Hotel was overbooked and were told to return after 5 pm. Finally back at 5:30 pm, after walking to nowhere just to kill time. Got a room the size of a can of sardines. Carpet badly stained but the thought of complaining to the rude Daniel [--] at the front desk just gave me a splitting... More

My room was not too big but for sleeping it was perfectly fine. Should you want to spend some time in the hotel room (but why should you in Madrid) the rooms are definitely to small. The bathroom was nice and even had a bathtub. Should you prefer to shower, the bathtub (unlike many others I have encountered in the... More

We stayed again at the Melia Galgos and had a very good time. We could come back late at night and not worry about security because the neighborhood is very safe. The breakfast buffet is still very good and we had friendly service from everyone in the hotel. Another good thing is that there are many good restaurants in the... More

Yes, the Wifi is poor, and you have to constantly reconnect, but asides from that, the room is lovely and clean. The staff was super friendly and while it is not exactly centrally located, we walked downtown in about half an hour, through lovely Madrid streets.
