When traveling I always use TripAdvisor for Hotel and Attraction recommends. This is the first time the reviews of TripAdvisor let me down. The hotel was ok but not what I expected based on the reviews. Biggest complaint was the noise factor - noise from the hotel and bar next door and from the rooms next door. The breakfast was nice and being next to the Metro was very good - just 2 stops to the Central Train Station. Hotel was about 20-30 walk to both Vatican and Colosseum so I did a lot walking. 20/20 hindsight, not sure which is the best location for hotel in Rome, but I think the hotel is over-priced. Hotel staff was great so no complaints with the service. The free Wifi was only in the hotel lobby and not in the rooms - it worked the first night but not my other 3 nights.

We chose this hotel based on a recommendation from a friend, and we were not disappointed. The location is near the Spanish Steps, metro, American Express office and Borghese Gardens. The rooms were spotless, roomy, quiet and comfortable. We had a quad and a double. Breakfast on the enclosed rooftop terrace was lovely. Hotel staff was friendly and accomodating.

We highly recommend Hotel Madrid!

I was nicely surprised. I got much more than expected. Location as said perfect, the service incredible, always at your service. Let us not a beautiful roof terrace to enjoy your breakfast. Full value for your money!

My wife and two young boys (ages 9 & 6) stayed here for four nights. We had a wonderful time. The hotel is ideally located with all the major attractions either a short walk away or a few stops on public transportation. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful and made our stay very pleasant. We stayed in a family room which was clean, comfortable & roomy for the four of us. However you do have to remember to close all the windows before going to bed otherwise you'll be woken up by the street sounds, but I think this is a problem faced by all the hotels in this area.
