In my previous review (pre-Covid), I said I'd stay here again. I did.
There isn't much to say besides that I still think this is a great hotel.
Location is great. It's less than an hour from the airport via the Metro. There are many restaurants in the area and the shops of Gran Via are a short walk away. Real Palace, the Temple of Debod (free), Cerralbo Museo (short visit) are nearby. It's easily walkable to Plaza Mayor / Sol and even to Retiro (it's less than 1.5 miles). There's also a small supermarket on the next block (Dia).
The hotel is very nice. Rooms are clean, roomy. There is a safe, microwave, fridge, stove, hot water pot in the rooms. The minibar was very well stocked. The staff were all great - front desk, breakfast crew, housekeepers. There is a garage available.
There were some differences the second time around. I booked a normal-sized room this time (I accidentally booked a double or something like that the last time) and I thought it was quite a good size and perfect for one or two. There was plenty of closet space. I had a room in front of the hotel. There was minimal exterior noise. There is a school right across the street but the kids don't seem to be outside in the morning. I booked the hotel at a later time in the year and the price was...In my previous review (pre-Covid), I said I'd stay here again. I did.

Most importantly, I booked the breakfast option this time (there was a promotion). The breakfast is spectacular. The churros had a greasiness that is absolutely addictive. There was an amazing selection and everything was great - juice, fresh fruits, coffee, meats, croissants, pastries, and churros, churros, churros.
I would come back a third time.More
