The hotel room is not very big, but the terrace is surprisingly large. The style of the room is modern and simple, but the style of the lobby is a bit American. The room facilities are quite new. Originally, there was a telecommunications building next to it, which was supposed to be a movie theater. Unfortunately, it was being renovated when I went there. The service is very good, especially the doorman on the first floor, who answers all questions and is very warm and lovely.

Convenient location, but parking is difficult and not ideal for travelers with a car. Elevators are small and require transfers, which can be inconvenient. Our room had a nice view, but there was a noticeable sewer smell. Overall, it did not feel like a Michelin-level hotel.

Excellent location, great staff, nice property. They even provided cava and cake in the room for my son’s birthday, what a nice surprise. Our second visit here, hotel I recommend to others.

It was our first visit to Madrid so we wanted to stay right in the centre and The Principal is in a great location. As you enter there is a flight of stairs and the doorman takes your details then bundles you into a small lift to reception on the 6th floor. The reception is between the restaurant and the bar and both look lovely,
