Overall good, the devil's in the detail

not amazing, good location, good room, but no disco tickets, no breakfast info which was paid for. Bed's were terribly uncomfortable and only 1 English channel on tv, annoying.

Nightlife tip: Short walk from hotel

If gay clubbing aim for the area called Chueca (there's a metro there also) as we spent a full evening googling for places, and it turned out alot had closed but if you get the Metro to Cheuca you'll walk onto the "gay square" which was really nice and chilled...7 days a week places are open til 2am...excellent :)

Great Location

This hotel is the best location to be in Madrid, you can walk to everyplace. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and there is breakast included. The rooms are very basic but clean, and the french doors to a balcony overlooking Sol with lounge chairs was a real bonus. I would definitely stay there again.

Très bon rapport qualité/prix

C'est mon cinquième séjour et je suis très satisfait de cet hotel, l'endroit est idéal et le personnel accueillant. C'est un peu bruyant mais c'est Madrid ! Pour ceux aux moyens modestes, les chambres sans salle de douche ont un lavabo et il y a suffisamment de salles de bains à partager et elles sont propres J'y retournerai très probablement..
