The hotel I stayed at in Madrid during my trip was beautiful, spacious, and above all, the staff were incredibly kind. It was a truly wonderful hotel.
Compared to Barcelona or Rome, I felt it was a bit of a letdown.
First, the location: it's about a 10-15 minute walk to major tourist attractions like Plaza Mayor, so you basically don't need a bus. The location is fantastic.
The rooms have been renovated and are very spacious. I think you get a surprisingly large room for the price, which is great.
There's a courtyard and a pool, with a restaurant next to it, creating a wonderful atmosphere. It's very relaxing.
The staff were all smiling, greeting me warmly, and were very friendly; they were happy to chat for a long time. I even gave them a tip.
The only downside was that I was hoping to see the view from my window, but the entire building was undergoing renovations with ladders cleaning the exterior walls. It was a shame I couldn't see the view. This wasn't mentioned on Trip.com beforehand, which was a bit disappointing.
However, overall, both my wife and I really liked this hotel, and we would like to stay there again if we return to Madrid after the renovations are complete. While the price might be a little high, we felt it offered better value for money compared to Barcelona or Rome. This is purely relative, of course.
