Travelled with my wife and 9 year old daughter at the end of March for 4 nights at the Principe Pio. Booked the hotel 7 months in advance and requested a room with a view of the palace but ended up in room 610 with a view of a block of flats. After reading reviews regarding noise from the main...

Principe Pio Hotel met all of our needs and considering it's superb location and reasonable price, we couldn't complain. Positives: - Excellent location -- In walking distance to the Palace, El Senado, Parque del Oeste, Templo de Debod, Plaza de España, and the Metro. We even walked to Puerta del Sol, the Opera House, and Plaza Mayor, but this is... More

I have just returned from a 4-day trip staying at the Principe Pio. First the good news - the rooms seem to have been renovated fairly recently (probably last few years), although there are the occasional defects (mould on seal around bath, etc.) and it faces the Royal palace, so a great position for tourism. Now the bad - I... More

Very good location for walking into the centre of Madrid. The area in which the hotel is situated is a little seedy but unthreatening. Staff friendly and helpful and no complaints about the room or breakfast arrangements. We are a couple in out late 60s and found everything satisfactory. A good choice for a budget hotel and would be happy... More

Excellent location for many of the sites and shopping. Local cafeterias serve really good food at low rates. No table cloths at these places but great food and local clientele. Hotel room was clean and towels etc. changed daily. Extremely noisy at night. Children running in the corridor above us. Walls must be paper thin as I could hear the... More

We have stayed in family in this hotel. It is well located near the Royal palace. It is quiet, not too central but very near the centre. Rooms are OK for the category. The restaurant is correct and not too expensive. We had our little dog with us, it is OK to have the dog go outside, there are quiet... More

Accompanied my husband on a 3 day business trip so I'm glad that we didn't have to pay for the hotel ourselves otherwise I'd be quite miffed.
