“Perfect location, Perfect Amenities, Friendly Team”

This hotel exceeded my expectations. From the rooms to the amenities to the RIU team! Special acknowledgment to Osvaldo. Whether coming or going, he was always friendly and a welcoming face! I didn’t make the wrong choice when choosing this hotel at all. For me it was the perfect location, walking distance to everything desirable including the Royal Palace. And the Metro was steps away from the entrance which was favorable for travel. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again if my travels ever bring me back to Madrid (and I hope they do!) And the complimentary breakfast made it all that much better!

“Location, location, location”

I’m not sure there is a better location in Madrid than this hotel. It’s important to note, this is a huge hotel and can feel like a bit of a cattle market. A very organised and well-run cattle market - but a cattle market nevertheless. If you are looking for boutique personal service - this isn’t for you. Rooms are of a decent size for a major city. Clean, modern, and a good level of housekeeping. Breakfast is busy, but it runs well. Food is of a decent quality. The rooftop is very cool and a tourist attraction in itself. Make sure to take advantage of the morning hours that are for hotel guests only. Location as I’ve said is perfect; and worth staying for that alone.

“Excellent stay”

Amazing stay, best part was the rooftop 360 bars. Amazing that you can use without booking ect. Very clean hotel. Only downside was we had a night time flight but you can only use hotel bars ect until 1pm so we had to go out of the hotel all day until the airport.
