Great location!

I chose to stay here because of the hotel's location to shops and museums, as well as its accesibilty to Barajas Airport, which is twenty minutes away. My previous stay here was in July, 2005. The hotel is well above its three star standing. The room was very tastefully done, clean, comfortable. I ordered room service for dinner and it was prompt, hot and quite good. I walked easily to Plaza de Colon and its visitor center for a map of the city. The service was impeccable, friendly and super efficient. It is my choice for my stays in Madrid.
