I enjoyed my stay at La Fontana very much. The room was spotless, small but very functional. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The location of the Hostal is incredible, within walking distance to many places you'd like to visit in Madrid and with excellent connections to the airport.

Mi experiencia en el Hostal La Fontana fue excelente. Desde la recepción pude notar lo limpio, organizado y bien cuidado que estaba todo; incluso el área común olía muy fresco. La habitación también olía muy limpia: las sábanas, la almohada y toda la ropa de cama estaban impecables. La ubicación del hostal es perfecta. Está en un punto ideal dentro de Madrid, lo que nos permitió llegar caminando a muchísimos lugares sin problema. Además, tanto la recepcionista como el recepcionista fueron muy amables y atentos durante toda la estancia. En resumen, una experiencia excelente. Definitivamente lo recomendaría y volvería a quedarme aquí.

Hostal La Fontana doe not have clear and bold signage on the street. I was pleasantly surprised to be given a room with a bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful. Could I recommend that rooms be supplied with a secure safe to place one’s valuables and key documents?

The hotel location is great. Comfort for a budget is good. The receptionist is very helpful. Initially due to language you might have a different opinion. But she is a nice lady and helpful.

Property was a cool old building that unfortunately was lacking some maintenance! Room was OK and it was clean but things needed repairs. Signage could be better at the door explaining where check in was located. The young lady who checked us in was very pleasant and kind! Cheers and Gracia! Mike and Ally 🇨🇦

Simple, affordable hotel, conveniently located.

The single room is very compact (I'd go as far as saying the photos are misleading), with windows facing the building's ventilation shaft. Although the bed is a bit uncomfortable, the room provides all necessary amenities, and the hostel is conveniently located. It offers good value for the cost.
