I had no choice about this hotel, as it was booked for me for a conference, and after reading some of the reviews I was quite afraid to stay here. I wouldn´t exactly call it scary, it´s a decent place to sleep, but it´s definitely not 4-star or worth the price they charge; the rooms were quite run down and... more

We stayed at the Hotel Convencion in March 2008. It is a big hotel, however it did not have a European feel to it. As well, we were a little dissapointed with the location. Everything we wanted to see needed transportation via subway or bussing. Almost everything we walked to took us a good 45 mins to get there(with the... more

This was by far the worst hotel I've stayed in for a long time. The travel agent at work booked it, and as soon as we walked in, I knew it was a mistake. It's fairly close to the centre of town, but that doesn't make up for the rest of it's shortcomings. Certainly not a 4 star hotel, I'd... more

My wife & I live in Spain on the Costa Blanca and went on a four day break to Madrid on a coach tour. The tour company changed the hotel at the last minute from the Florida Norte because clients on the last tour experienced food poisoning there, and we were glad because Trip Advisor subscribers also condemned it. At... more

Wow...I was hoping for a nice stay in Madrid with my wife. Boy, did we book the wrong place. I walked into the hotel room and got the faintest smell of potato chips. However, the smell got worse and worse and turned out to not be potato chips, after all...The last guest had left a bloody sock under the bed,... more

This hotel is very basic, and not the best 3-star hotel we've been to. The room we stayed in was dark and dingy. The breakfast room felt more like a canteen. Saying that, we didn't pay a lot of money for it(about £200 each for flight and accommodation as part of a last minute deal), and it was a decent... more

I did not enjoy my stay at the Hotel Convencion in Madrid. The rooms were old, dingy, and the temperature was impossible to control. We were there in November 2007, and despite the 50 degree weather outside, the room was consistently 80 degrees. The bathroom was atrocious. The toilet flushing mechanism did not function properly. The way the toilet was... more

Is a very large hotel for Madrid , . I did not like nothing in this hotel Its to croud and bad service. Rooms are a bit large, but furniture are old and the bed are HORRIBLE!! more

We stayed in a room on the first floor, which even by the wildest stretch of a magnanimous imagination cannot be described as a 4-star accomodation - even a 3 star rating would seem rather charitable. It felt cheap and bland in every respect. Towards the end of our stay it became clear that the hotel management considers only the... more
