The hotel is located opposite the Palace gardens in the middle of a hill. Very central. There is a bus stop in front and two Metro stations at either end of the Street. However, utilize the Metro at Plaza Espanza towards the left. Shorter walk up the hill. Or you can walk down the hill to the Principe Pio Metro... more

My brother and i chose this hotel after looking at the reviews. Its a slightly dated hotel in terms of the decor, BUT, you cant fault the location. Its about a 5-7 minute walk to the station (there are 2 stations within walking distance), the Royal palace is near by. If you dont mind walking you could very well walk... more

The pluses: 1. The hotel is in the center, near Plaza Espana and the Royal Palace; halfway between the Plaza Espana and Principe Pio subway stations (From the airport, take line 8 to the last stop and transfer to line 10 to Plaza Espana from where its a 7 minute walk downhill; when going back to the airport, keep walking... more

The hotel is very central, oposite the Royal Palace and quite handy if you want to walk to the centre instead of using the tube. Although, if you do prefer the tube, it's in between two stations so allow 5 minutes walk, at least, to either of them. The surounding area is not particularly great (8 lane carriage way, very... more

This is a very good hotel! I would definitely stay there again. I booked it through the "booking.com" site, at a very reasonable price. Central but quiet, located just a 5 minutes walk from the Plaza Espana, on the side of the Royal Palace. I asked for a double for single use room; I got room 714. It was comfortable,... more

Very central position, just in front of the Royal Palace and very close to Opera, Porta del Sol and other nice place in Madrid. Very close to metro stations (Plaza de Espana, Principe Pio). Nice and clean rooms (a little bit noisy) and personnel friendly and helpful. Absolutely a good place to go if you want to enjoy Madrid. more

I would recommend you avoid this hotel as there are far better options in Madrid, and it does not deserve the three-star status it claims. We were especially disappointed with our room, which was meant to be a standard triple. One of the beds in the stuffy, tired room was a fold-up bed and only 5-foot-6 long. The location is... more

We just got back from Madrid. Hotel advertizes itself as " in constant renovation" - well, expect noise of construction every 9 am! Staff at reception was extremely unhelpful and there is NO single iron in whole hotel - why would you need one, right !!!????? Worse if you have a car - THERE IS NO PARKING !!! Even if... more
