This hotel has an excellent location both near the city center and the train station. The room was clean and nice as well as the bathroom. We loved the breakfast : lots of choice and delicious fresh products. The staff was helpful : providing a city map, advice about visits... Given the moderate price, it was an excellent choice.

My mom and I stayed in this hotel as the last leg of our tour around Europe, and unfortunately this was the last hotel we stayed in. Out of 5 hotels we stayed in around Europe, this is the only hotel we were unhappy about. Sadly, we couldn't end our stay on a happier note. First of all, the elevator... More

We had a lovely stay; the staff were friendly and helpful, the room clean and comfortable. It's not a luxury hotel but the location makes up for that, all of Madrid is on your door step including the excellent Mercado San Miguel! The rooms are well priced and offer value for money and the English speaking staff were always helpful.... More

I stayed at the hotel plaza mayor in April 2012 and had a standard double room for around 70 euros a night. Positives: - location! The hotel is very close to the Puerta del Sol area which makes it very easy to walk everywhere. We only used the train/metro for getting to the airport. - wifi: we did have issues... More

This was my second stay at the Hotel Plaza Mayor. The location is fantastic on a little square right off of thePlaza Mayor. Rooms are quiet. The non-smoking rooms are larger and more recently decorated. My room was on a corner with floor to ceiling windows on two sides. The breakfat was reasonably priced and had more choices than most...

There are several points to recommend this hotel. We found the location quite convenient, within walking distance of Prado, the Royal Palace, and several attractive squares for dining and experiencing the exciting street life of Madrid. It's about a 15 minute walk to the main train station, and about the same to Prado. It's about 10 minutes or less to... More

We stayed in a fair size interior room. There was no view but there was no street noise. We requested non-smoking and request was granted. The staff people were very nice and got to know us by sight quickly. We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see in Madrid. We even walked to the train station with... More

I booked this hotel for the convenient location, right next to Plaza Mayor and 5 mins walk to SOL Metro station. They first put me on the 5th floor. Room smelled like smoke and looked dated. I DID ask for a non-smoking room. The second room I had is on the first floor, non-smoking floor. Room is a little better.... More

My family began our Europe vacation here in late June 2011. It was a referal I read about on TA and the rooms had been perfectly described and we had a delightful experience with everyone at the desk. We had two rooms, one triple for our teenagers and a double superior. All our bathrooms and fixtures were very modern, everything... More
