Ideally located in the heart of Madrid, near Puerta del Sol and Gran Vía.
Shops, bars, public transport and bars at walking distance.
Breakfast buffet is okay!

Great location and Friendly and helpful staff- Room was big andf clean
Hotel is well located, albeit in a very loud area. You can hear folks on the street well into the early morning. The rooms are very bare bones and dated but clean and the staff is very friendly
Wonderfully located 3 star hotel in the center of Madrid in between Sol and Gran Via metro stations. The hotel is clean with modern amenities. The bathroom is modern with excellent shower and bathtub. There can be noise in the middle of the night especially on the weekends. I highly recommend this hotel. It is safe, comfortable and convenient.
Excellent location in the middle of everything. Shops dining and tours. Hotel very clean and good breakfast. Staff very nice and helpful. Highly recommend. Will definitely return.
Location was amazing! Walking distance (like 2-3min) to Gran Via to one side and Puerta del Sol to the other. Lots of shops and places to eat as soon as you walk out the door. Spacious room with mini fridge, spacious bathroom with all needed amenities. Bed was big, had a small balcony facing the main street - a bit noisy but it was not unbearable - we sleep all 4 nights without any issues! Would stay there again!
Staff is welcoming. Rooms and public area are very clean. Close to lots of shopping.

Location cannot be any better, ideal for exploring the tourist hotspots of Madrid. Staff were helpful & friendly and the rooms were clean & tidy. Slightly in need of modernisation in terms of furniture & new paintwork but that should not distract from it being an excellent hotel
Fantastic location. Simple but clean hotel. Staff very nice and supportive

The room was very clean. I was very happy with the various bathroom items they make available. Bed was comfortable. Hotel was quiet even though it's in the very center of Madrid.
