Lonely Planet Review

Sitting just across from the Plaza Mayor, here you'll find stylish decor and charming original elements of the 150-year-old building - it's super value and far better than you'd expect from a two-star hotel. The bathrooms throughout the hotel are modern and marble-lined and each comes with a bathtub. The buffet breakfast is also a great way to start the day.

There's a lot to like about this place, from the pretty facade and super central location to the extremely friendly and helpful staff. The rooms are attractive, although those with a light colour scheme and wrought-iron furniture are better. Of the normal rooms, the best are those on the building's corner (there's one on each floor) which have three windows and plaza views. Even better are the attics, where the furnishings are almost minimalist in style (dark wood and designer lamps) and have lovely little terraces with wonderful rooftop views of central Madrid. The bathrooms throughout the hotel are modern and marble-lined and each comes with a bathtub. The buffet breakfast is also a great way to start the day.

How to Get There

By Subway (Metro)
The closest Metro station is Sol, and the closest exit is the one on Calle Mayor. All you have to do then is walk up Calle Esparteros and you will see the hotel in front of you. It usually takes 40 minutes to get to the hotel by Metro from the airport.
By Taxi
The average cost of a taxi from the airport to the hotel is 25 to 30 Euros, and the average time it takes is 25 to 35 minutes. The exact address is Calle Atocha, 2, and the clearest direction is to approach the Plaza Mayor from Atocha Street ("La Plaza Mayor subiendo por la calle Atocha").
By Car
There are two public parking garages near the hotel which cost approximately 27 Euros for 24 hours.To get to the hotel you can take Calle Toledo going to the start of the street and from there enter the Plaza Mayor parking garage . You can come on Atocha Street from the Atocha traffic circle, which is across from Atocha Train Station. Once you are on Atocha Street you must go to the beginning of the street.

Author Tip

If it's Sunday morning, head south from the hotel and follow the crowds - El Rastro flea market is a Madrid institution that seems to tumble down the hill forever.
