Perfect location and lovely hotel
Great location (plaza España metro right outside) easy to walk the Gran Via and get to other tourist sites. Hotels was modern clean and great atmosphere. Room was large and comfortable with great view of the plaza (604). Shower was great. Staff were friendly. We stopped off at the rooftop bar and restaurant for some drinks and tapas - amazing views and reasonable price. Would absolutely stay here again when visiting Madrid in the future.

Our Stay Was OK
The hotel was OK. The room we stayed in needs to be repaired, cleaned, and repainted. The heating system did not work, and the maintenance person could not fix it unless he powered down heating system for the entire building. The Christmas dinner was good. The New Years Eve dinner food was good; however, the service was horrible. Several times the maid took the keycard from our room when we were at breakfast; we were charging our phones for a long day out and about. We had four adult guests within our room, and quite a number of times we had to ask for an extra bath towel. The front door persons treated us and looked at us suspiciously each and every time we entered through the front door of the establishment. I could go on; however, I believe that you get the idea.
