First of all it was the first and last time I make a reservation through booking.com. The site proposed an exceptional offer. After making the booking, in the evening I went on the hotel website and I saw a lower price for the room I booked. I contacted both, hotel and booking, which, instead of answering with a justification, changed... More

If you not very choosy and do not like spend all the time in the hotel room but like your hotel in walking distance from the most attractive places in Madrid, you would better choose this hotel. It is only 10 minutes walking distance from great park and Prado Museum, and about 30 minutes from Real Palace. Moreover there is... More

Stayed for one night before returning home after a holiday in Spain. We wanted a place near Parque del Retiro and this hotel attracted us by the late check out (15:00) rate. On arrival the reception staff was a bit grumpy. Then we found out that we needed to climb a stair to reach the lift. The room looked as... More

No wi-fi in the rooms was a bummer and I couldn't even get my computer to connect in the lobby. TV is small and outdated and i didn't even turn it on since my remote didn't work. The place was clean and the location was pretty good, but not much to set it apart from other places in Madrid.

Got very good deal for weekend in Madrid (back today 4/2/13) so was not cross with fading flower displays which looked like bunches of wilting celery, stained wallpaper around window in room, a broken tap in the Ladies and a woodlouse frozen in my icecube in my Campari!
