Madrid Hoteller i nærheten av Puerta de Alcalá

Excellent location. Beds very comfortable. Hotel still not fully open and noise of workmen woke us in the morning. Bathroom wash area actually in the room not standard 5 star - no desk area.

Nothing Small pokey room with inefficient air conditioning. Indifferent staff. Very expensive mini bar ie 5EUR for a small bottle of water. Would definately not stay here again nor would I recommend it to anyone else. Stay regulary at 5* Hotels around the world and this has to be classed as medicore 4* at best.

At 5:40 in the morning intruders entered our room as we slept. They entered with flashlights through a side door and only left when we began screaming. It was a terrible experience. The hotel's reception seemed very surprised but did nothing to reassure us that we were safe there.

Nice location by Retiro Park Overpriced and not good valuie. They refused to send an ironing board to the room, we had to pay for a valet service to iron our clothes! The hotel bar was a tiny dark room with no windows! And their website lied saying the room had a balcony, which it didn't. We only chose this hotel because we wanted a balcony, so were very disappointed.

The staff was extremely helpful and they upgraded us to a jr suite. The location to the park and designer shops very good. Also great breakfast.

The hotel is clean and well appointed. There were ample facilities (restaurants, pools, etc.) It was fairly empty, so many of the facilities downstairs (pub, screening room, etc.) were not open. The entire downstairs was dark. It just seemed so empty and lonely

I like everything.

staff very helpful yes 24 hour building work outsideinterior was a little plastic, lacked class

The location is excellent as you can walk everywhere in Madrid, such as The Prado and other Museums. Sounds travel throughout the hotel as it is clean and modern with wood floors so there is nothing to muffle the sounds. Early in the morning I could hear many rooms in the hotel opening doors, moving chairs, shwoering....cant imagine what I might have heard......

no kettle, no tea, no recommendation from English guest

Next to Biblioteca Nacional and Colon subway station Smoking staff at the reception desk.

The apartment was spacious. It is situated close to tourist routes for the on /off bus and close enough to walk into the heart of the shopping areas. The staff were very difficult to communicate with, so very little english, and not very friendly or helpful,with our very little Spanish. Bad directions, completely wrong in fact, and trying to get any thing, like toilet paper and enough towels (for just 2 people ) was really difficult! Then there was the night club situated right below us, playing thumping music till 5am. Apartment was so old and rundown, broken tiles on the stairs inside, that kept falling away to expose a sharp edge you could cut your self on, and the beds must have been 20 years old.

The apartment first allocated was unsuitable, steps to bedroom but there was no problem in chaning ti a more suitable room The room apartments would need refurbishing

mainly the location and the space in the rooms. needs an urgent refurbishing and a good clean as it was sweat smelling...change of furniture and a good wall paint is needed.

Good value for money in a central location. Bottled water available in lobby vending machine. Air-conditioning (though barely enough at full strength). Cafe/bar in lobby which I did not use but have heard is good. The twin-bedded room was fine for one person, at least for one night, but if there had been two people in the room it would have been very cramped--the second bed was the only place to put luggage. There was much less furniture than in the pictures on the booking.com website, and it was quite beat-up. Bathroom was ill-designed and cramped. Breakfast was put away and door closed ten minutes before the advertised time. Payment was demanded on arrival--it is usual, and preferable, to pay on departure.

Wifi worked and bathroom was large. Old and tired building in general - looks like they've tried to update some things in the room, but overall the rooms require a lot more work. The beds were terrible - old and you could see the sagging in the middle and feel the springs and I found hairs on the sheets. My boyfriend and I ended up getting a room with 2 single beds - they were booked up and couldn't help us in that area. All the tiles were cracked, walls were stained and the walls were so thin you could here the people in rooms around you during the night as well as the air con. The photos on the website were deceiving as they showed their updated rooms, while from the looks of things, most rooms hadn't been updated to that standard yet. I would personally pay more to be in a more comfortable environment. The plus was the wifi was good.
