Beautiful hotel for your Madrid trip

Beautiful hotel renovated 1 year ago in the heart of one of the most bustling neighborhoods in Madrid. We were staying at an Airbnb that ended up having no AC in the middle of August and were miserable the next day, so we booked this hotel last-minute for the rest of our Madrid trip. I'm so glad I did!! Mónica at the front desk was such a sweetheart, upon hearing what happened to us she made sure to personally show us our room and check in with us throughout our stay to make sure the AC here was to our liking. The rooms are super nice and luxurious. Great shower pressure on the showers and very comfortable beds. The snacks service from 4pm-7pm is a nice touch and the hotel food is just as good as some of the restaurants in the neighborhood. The hotel is a 15 min walk to the royal palace and 10 min walk to the Prado museum. It's close to other major tourist landmarks and very easy to get around. Great food all around too within 5 min walking distance. We didn't really venture too far from this neighborhood to eat since it has everything you need. Honestly one of the best hotels I've stayed at and I've traveled quite a bit.
Wonderful Stay!

Great location! Walking distance of many major attractions, restaurants, and shops. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Only downside was the small, very crowded pool and a tiny gym.
Cozy, well located and very clean

This hotel has an excellent location and the staff is extremely helpful and accomodating. Alejandra, Emmy, and the young guy who work at the restaurant during breakfast (which is great, BTW!) are SUPER HOSTS that made us feel at home. Bravo!
