My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were nice, with a terrace and a lovely view, spacious, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. However, it was missing a kettle and iron. The service was excellent, especially at reception, and they provided alternative travel options. The location was amazing, right on Gran Vía in the heart of Madrid, making it easy to walk to sights and access public transport. The dining experience was really good, with a great selection of quality produce for breakfast. Overall, a great value for money hotel with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel is centrally located with easy access to major museums and the shopping district. The staff are eager to assist with directions and tour information, making it convenient for travelers. The spacious family rooms can accommodate up to four people comfortably. However, the room with a window overlooking the courtyard had poorly joined single beds, which was quickly rectified when brought to their attention. The breakfast service starts late at 7:30 a.m., so early risers may miss out. Overall, a conveniently located hotel with excellent service but limited dining options in the morning.

The hotel is ideally positioned at the beginning of Gran Via, the main road of Madrid, offering convenient access to various attractions. The rooms are spacious, albeit getting hot due to the limited bathroom ventilation. The top-floor views are worth upgrading for, and the restaurant reservations and conference room access are excellent perks, enhancing the stay. Service is polite and accommodating, making communication easy for guests with any requests or language barriers. The central location allows for a relaxed stay while being close to key Madrid landmarks and dining spots.

The hotel was fantastic! Our room was super clean, had a perfect location, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The balcony with a hot tub and sun loungers was a delightful touch, especially in the sunny weather. We had plenty of space in the room, and it was well equipped with good air conditioning and soundproofing, so we didn't hear any city noise. However, the central location made it a bit challenging to sleep through the night in the hot summer days.

The hotel is located in the heart of Madrid on Gran Vía, offering easy access to public transport and many attractions within walking distance. The rooms are lovely, adorned with an additional twin bed and overlooking a charming courtyard rather than Gran Via. The service is exceptional, with the friendly and helpful staff, especially Alex from reception, going above and beyond, even surprising us with champagne at check-in. However, noise from the construction on Gran Vía can be disruptive early in the morning.
