“Very good hotel for our short stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights, which was very convenient to get to by public transport from the airport (4.70 Euros for a single Metro ticket; line 8 (pink line) to terminus, Nuevos Ministerios and then line 10 (navy blue line) south to Alonso Martinez. The ticket machine at the Metro is easy to use and takes credit card. Allow yourself 45 minutes to 1 hour to get from airport to hotel, 30 mins for the metro if the connections are good and about 15 mins walk, 10 of which was needed to get between airport terminal and metro! Hotel was a few minutes walk from the station and located 20 minutes walk from Gran Via and a further 10 minutes walk from Plaza Mayor. We liked the area and felt safe, did not experience any hassle at all and we did wander off the beaten tracks several times.
Hotel and bedroom were clean, we were in room 405 a quiet room facing the court-yard with good Wi-Fi connections, we actually slept with the window open as we found the room warm, however as experienced by other light sleepers the walls were thin and we could hear our neighbours next door and the person above us. This would be the down-side of this hotel as I am a very light sleeper. It didn't bother my husband who can sleep through anything.
We loved the shower and all the toiletries on offer (comb, toothbrush, razor were included), and used the fridge to store our own water bottles and sandwich fillers!
We only had breakfast once here, cost us 9 Euros each plus VAT, which was for a "eat as much as you like buffet breakfast" (cooked breakfast was a selection of scrambled eggs, yucky bacon, some sort of meat and veg casserole which tasted ok), a selection of continental style cereals which we didn't try as not to our liking as looked too sweet and with not much texture, lots of sweet pastries, bread rolls, sliced white and their version of sliced brown bread which can be toasted, meat and cheese selection, fresh and pickled salad, a variety of fresh and dried fruit, a selection of yoghurt pots, a choice of 3 fruit juices and plenty of hot beverage choices.
We made use of the hotel computer opposite the lifts but it was so so so so slow.
All the receptionists were excellent - spoke very good English.

Room Tip: I've already given some tips but maybe try the top floor so that you don't get to hear peopl...

“Good location, terrible wifi”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 2, 2013

Nice hotel, good location, terrible wifi. The rooms are a good size, location is central as it is 2 metro stops to Gran Via. The only downfall to this hotel is the wifi signal. It was difficult to maintain a signal from the second floor and not much better from the lobby. I would recommend staying here if accessing the internet is not of importance.

“Good location, reasonable hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 2, 2012

I stayed in this hotel for a week in February 2012. It was a girly trip, with my teenage daughter. We had a good time in Madrid, and the hotel definitely helped: the location was convenient, both for walking or for taking the public transport (clean and efficient metro system), and the evenings were quiet. We would often go back after lunch for a recharge, and the room was comfortable. The breakfast is sufficient and standard - being an espresso fan, I usually asked for one and the staff started bringing one without asking. By the way, there are several Starbucks and churros places in the area - definite plus for my daughter, and cheers you up on cold winter days! Mind you, Madrid has a mildish winter (depending of course on your definition) - in February it was around 12-15 degrees during the day, pleasant enough for long walks and even sitting outside, with plenty of sunshine!

“Totally Fine”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

This hotel was just fine for the price. Clean and comfortable. The staff was not especially helpful but they were not useless either. We did not do the breakfast buffet because they are only open till 11 and we slept in alot. (Late nights are the norm in madrid!) We liked the cafeteria across the street. There is a lady there that spoke great english and was pretty nice. There is also a starbucks. The best part is its location to a subway stop. I was impressed with the cleaning staff as they always managed to get the room clean even though we were sleeping in so late. the only drawback was the noise. The walls are on the thin side, but it didn't bother me too much. my internet connection was great. there are two computers downstairs with printers if needed.

“Few improvements might be needed.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 23, 2012

We got spacious room, matching what we wanted. Location is good, but you need 15 minutes on foot to reach old city centre. Breakfast was good, but not anything exceptional. Beds were comfortable enough. However, they advertise high-speed internet connection and even if you will be able to connect, forget about any speed at all. It's like using modem 10 years ago. Plus, you get disconnected every 10 minutes.
Another story are the pillows, very hard, long and rather uncomfortable. Cleaning staff a bit noisy and not very polite.
