We had booked a room at the Hostal Cervantes, around the corner, but it and the building next door were under extensive rennovation, and our room was intolerable (noise and dust). The Cervantes' brother runs Armesto and he called and got us the perfect room there. By all means get a room overlooking the interior garden - it was very... more

We stayed at Hostal Armesto for four days in May. It was a little more posh than I had expected for the price. The reception area is very nicely appointed, as are the rooms. Our bathroom was clean and well-maintained. We had a large closet and a small writing desk. For the most part it was quiet. The street that... more

don't let the exterior fool you, this is a fantastic little hotel!! it is located on the second floor of a building (no elevator thus not accessible to the disabled). the area is pretty quiet; i didn't experience any noise from the street. some rooms face an interior courtyard/garden which is absolutely charming. the rooms/bathrooms are basic but immaculately clean.... more

Just spent 5 nights at the Armesto. It's very well-located, on the first floor of an old building and within a very short distance of the 3 main art galleries and the bars and restaurants of the Santa Ana area as well as all the lively, bustling places and public transport facilities in the centre of Madrid. However, despite being... more

Overall impression: Nice, cozy and super super clean. Well located and quiet althought very central. Puts off: The room we were - near the kitchen - is kind of small and there is no lift (the hostal is @ 2° floor). Luca - Roma more
