The hotel’s location is very convenient and the restaurant, terrace and lobby area are very nice. Reception staff was great. However the bed (mattress) in our room was very uncomfortable, the shower was clogged and service at the bar and restaurant was extremely slow. We did not feel our stay was at a 5 star hotel for the price we paid.

Just lovely
Centrally located near the Gran Via, the hotel allowed us to see a great deal of Madrid during our two nights in the city. I was disappointed at the small size of our room but I know that’s not unusual for Europe. While the rooftop bar was closed during our stay which was disappointing, there was another terrace at a lower level to have a cocktail or snack while seeing the top of the city.
