The hotel was in a perfect location. The Plaza de Espana Metro station is right outside the hotel. Great access to all of the sights and attractions. Quiet rooms and excellent choice for breakfast

Poor room amenities and cleanliness for a four star hotel. The location was good and central to key attractions.

En olisi odottanut huoneen (1122) ikkunan avautumista suoraan vastapäiseen seinään. Deluxe-Twin antaa väärän kuvan huoneen sijainnista - petyin! Onneksi kahdesta muusta matkakumppaneilleni varaamistani huoneista näkymät olivat odotusten mukaiset. Palvelu. siisteys ja aamiainen olivat hyvinkin odotusten mukaiset. Ystävällisin terveisin, Teuvo Rossi

Waren für 3 Nächte hier, um das Madrid Derby im Bernabeu zu schauen. Waren mit allem zufrieden! Zimmer & Frühstück top, mit Uber 10-15 Minuten vom Bernabeu entfernt. Kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!
