Hoteller i Madrid

Fordeler: Samantha is personable and sweet and loves Americans! That's why I stayed with her twice. When traveling, there are some rooms I get just to sleep in. Others I get to relax in after I'm done with the long tours and I'm just soaking up the local color. I couldn't have chosen better. In a high rise apartment with awesome views, I had a hot tub right int the bedroom. There was a separate living room with another T.V. The service was over the top. She picked me up at the airport for the same fee as a taxi or less but she waited for me, came inside the airport to get me, told me the sights I should definitely go see while I was there. And she set up WhatsApp for me so I could call her if I got into trouble anywhere. Traveling alone that was an awesome psychological safety net. I explored further than I would have. She did a couple of huge favors for me while I was there too. There's a restaurant right next to the building, another down a block or two, a metro station nearby leading to hundreds of restaurants. You can't beat the bang for the buck here. Samantha's Apartment in Madrid is going to be my home away from home. The ticket to Madrid is usually cheap, so if I want to go some place else, like Morocco, I'm definitely going to stop in Madrid and try to stay at SYT B&B

Fordeler: Samantha's B&B in Madrid is going to be my home away from home. The ticket to Madrid is usually cheap from the U.S., so if I want to go some place else --like Morocco, I'm probably going to stop there. Samantha is personable and sweet and loves Americans! In a high rise apartment with awesome views, I had a hot tub right int the bedroom. There was a separate living room with another T.V. She greets you with a bottle of cava. Later you'll find there's water and other drinks in the fridge for a reasonable price. When traveling, there are some rooms I get just to sleep in after doing the tourist thing. Others I get to relax in after I'm done with the long tours and I'm just soaking up the local color. I really couldn't have chosen better. The service was over the top. She picked me up at the airport for the same fee as a taxi or less but she waited for me, came inside the airport to get me, told me the sights I should definitely go see while we driving to her place. She set up WhatsApp for me so I could call her if I got into trouble anywhere. Traveling alone that was an awesome psychological safety net. I explored a lot further than I would have. Samantha did me a couple of huge favors while I was there too. She's all about making your trip go well - not just providing you with a place to stay As for food, there's a restaurant right next to the building, another down a block or two, a metro station nearby leading to hundreds of restaurants. If there are two people traveling, you should try her big Spain breakfast at least once. She brings it to the room. You can't beat the bang for the buck here.

Fordeler: Amazing property, very clean and lots of things to enjoy such as the hot tub, huge shower, two tv’s and complimentary food and drink. The host was so friendly and helpful and I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Fordeler: Samantha is an amazing hostess and we received royal treatment. The flat has every comfort anyone can think of and more!

Fordeler: 1. Free parking. 2. Both Metro and supermarket are located within walking distance. 3. Metro to the city Centro within one hour. 4. I like the most is our wonderful host Samantha who helping us a lot.

Fordeler: The whole Apartment and the View are just phantastic

Fordeler: The location is excellent and Samantha does a great job of making you feel welcome and taken care of. The place is immaculate and includes free wi-fi and a really nice big screen TV. Breakfast was excellent and plentiful. Very, very happy to have picked this place. We will be happy to return.

Ulemper: Nothing. Everything was great.

Fordeler: Property is in a great position with amazing views. The hostess is amazingly helpful and a lovely woman. We’ll definitely be returning.

Fordeler: This was a wonderful stay to end our 23 days in Spain (we spent 14 on the Camino!) The hotel is only a few blocks away from the Metro station (Barrio de la Conception) in a mostly residential neighborhood (downside is not very many restaurants nearby; a nice little bakery/cafe/wine bar is only a block away though!) The customer service of the hotel staff from reception to housekeeping were all excellent: competent, friendly, professional, knowledgeable. They had a lovely lounge area that was stocked with complementary cold drinks (beer & hard liquor were extra), coffee, teas, pastries, light snacks (think a nice minimart), fresh fruit, etc. The room was spacious & clean, with modern décor. The only area I didn't give 5 stars was the location: the view from our 2nd floor window was to a sort of enclosed back corridor of the hotel itself, and also, I would have like there to be a little more entertainment in the neighborhood. Every other aspect of our stay here was exceptional.

Fordeler: Staff was kind location convenient, central.

Ulemper: Heater did not work well, very cold night... in my friend's room, very hot!! Noises during night from garage or somewhere. We were in room 101 parking is really complicated... poor distribution of space carpets very old no clean, dust These are things that can be improved... I hope they do! :)

Fordeler: Fantastic staff Lots of free extras Spacious room

Ulemper: Nothing All great

Fordeler: The small details, handwritten notes, recyclable supplies...

Ulemper: I liked everything

Fordeler: Just perfect ! Bonus the snack bar !

Fordeler: amazing breakfast lovely place staying her for the second time

Fordeler: Breakfast was excellent. Honesty bar great. Room & provisions very nice.

Ulemper: Quieter room. Was right next to the cleaning cupboard.

Fordeler: Beautiful room and lobby. Very clean and quiet.

Fordeler: Spacious room, modern hotel, clean property and great location

Ulemper: 1- Breakfast was limited 2- Prices at the property were too expensive specially the spa treatments 3- Charging hotel guest 5 euros for just entering the spa is not fair

Fordeler: Staff really good. It is very close to Metro and local bus services and about 25 min by taxi from the airport. Well designed modern hotel. Roof top bar a great feature.

Ulemper: Would be nice to have the option of a light breakfast- though there is a place close by.

Fordeler: The room, the balcony (it was a terrace!), the staff, breakfast, the sky bar, the location

Ulemper: Nothing really although I found the pillows perhaps a little on the soft side and 2 together was too much

Fordeler: Cleanliness, very friendly staff

Fordeler: Location, Modern Hotel, Very clean

Fordeler: Spiste ikke frokost, så kan ikke svare på de! sengen og rommet var perfekt. de eneste lille minus eg fant av 1000 små og store ting var at de hvite putene i sengen var for store og harde, skulle vert mykere lavere puter! ellers alt perfekt!

Ulemper: Putene i sengen!

Fordeler: Excellent location Very good breakfast, many choices Very kind staff

Ulemper: We had no water in the room for all the second day. My room was premium and we had some drinks as a complimentary but the didn’t refill the bar for more than 24 hours, there were no envelopes to write letters

Fordeler: Dette hotellet er bare helt fantastisk

Ulemper: Ingenting var helt perfekt

Fordeler: gammeldags sjarm og beliggenhet. Fantastisk lobby og spisestue

Ulemper: møblering og gangen tepper trenger oppfriskning

Fordeler: De ansatte var vidunderlig entusiastisk. Innstillingen var vakkert!

Fordeler: The room The location The general ambience

Ulemper: We reserved a room with breakfast thru 'get a room' and surprised to see that it was not a buffet breakfast!!! for getting the buffet breakfast we needed to add some more money.... Not all the recommendations of the concierges were good, sometimes it seemed like they recommended places that they had personal interests/connections in.

Fordeler: The beds were amazingly comfortable, the housekeepers were not only very amusing but extraordinarily nice. The hotel was insanely clean and had a very comfortable feel to it, as if a lot of fancy people had been through it over the years. The location is good, but not great, for accessing most of the touristy stuff in Madrid. But I found the Prado (directly beside the Ritz) to be horrifically overcrowded compared to some of the other museums like Sofia Reina just down the street. Note: Not really easy to access via metro, I'd recommend taking a taxi to/from.

Ulemper: Take the following review with a grain of salt. I am a young person who grew up poor and wanted, for once, the "Ritz" experience: While I am a big fan of trying new things, I have to say that the Ritz experience just wasn't for me. I don't mean to be crass, but if I had a fistful of fives - I can think of a few places I'd rather spend it than tipping the endless stream of people trying to help me with things. Additionally, there is a little doll that you place on your door if you do not wish to be disturbed. Note: Don't leave the doll up for very long, because if you do, they will call your room until you answer so that they can ask when the next time they can come in your room is. I nap maybe... 2-3 times per year at most, and I am severely irritated that they felt the need to call during my biannual nap to ask me when they can come in my room. Instead of changing my sheets 3X per day, how about leaving me the hell alone when I have my DO NOT DISTURB DOLL up? Perhaps I am not cut out for the lifestyle, but I don't want/need people treating me like a helpless child, yet simultaneously making me feel "lower" than they are. Every time I offered a "no thanks, I don't need a taxi, I'm walking" or walked into the hotel from the street, I received these weird looks of incredulity/disdain that I didn't particularly care for. When I brought my own luggage downstairs on checkout I absolutely horrified the front desk attendant. Why the need to treat people like this? I have no idea. My recommendation? Take the $500 per night you'd spend here for the standard room and split it in half. Take $250 / night to spend on some other hotel's suite. Take the other $250 and stick it back in your pocket.
