Hotell i Madrid nära Pradomuseet

Great! No.

Location of hotel Comfort of bed was spolt by squeaking everytime you moved in the bed!

Hotel staff were fabulous ,location excellent As long as you dont mind a bit of faded grandeur and pink wardrobes an excellent choice

The beds were amazingly comfortable, the housekeepers were not only very amusing but extraordinarily nice. The hotel was insanely clean and had a very comfortable feel to it, as if a lot of fancy people had been through it over the years. The location is good, but not great, for accessing most of the touristy stuff in Madrid. But I found the Prado (directly beside the Ritz) to be horrifically overcrowded compared to some of the other museums like Sofia Reina just down the street. Note: Not really easy to access via metro, I'd recommend taking a taxi to/from. Take the following review with a grain of salt. I am a young person who grew up poor and wanted, for once, the "Ritz" experience: While I am a big fan of trying new things, I have to say that the Ritz experience just wasn't for me. I don't mean to be crass, but if I had a fistful of fives - I can think of a few places I'd rather spend it than tipping the endless stream of people trying to help me with things. Additionally, there is a little doll that you place on your door if you do not wish to be disturbed. Note: Don't leave the doll up for very long, because if you do, they will call your room until you answer so that they can ask when the next time they can come in your room is. I nap maybe... 2-3 times per year at most, and I am severely irritated that they felt the need to call during my biannual nap to ask me when they can come in my room. Instead of changing my sheets 3X per day, how about leaving me the hell alone when I have my DO NOT DISTURB DOLL up? Perhaps I am not cut out for the lifestyle, but I don't want/need people treating me like a helpless child, yet simultaneously making me feel "lower" than they are. Every time I offered a "no thanks, I don't need a taxi, I'm walking" or walked into the hotel from the street, I received these weird looks of incredulity/disdain that I didn't particularly care for. When I brought my own luggage downstairs on checkout I absolutely horrified the front desk attendant. Why the need to treat people like this? I have no idea. My recommendation? Take the $500 per night you'd spend here for the standard room and split it in half. Take $250 / night to spend on some other hotel's suite. Take the other $250 and stick it back in your pocket.

location,

Nära Atoche Renfe (järnvägsstation, söderut i Spanien. Fina rum.

Perfekt läge - mitt emellan prado, thyssen och reina sofia. inte långt till shopping. en uppsjö av inspirerande restauranger och folkliv inom gångavstånd. vi kommer rekommendera hotellet med glädje. Nej definitivt inte

Mycket bra hotell, utmärkt läge. God frukostbuffè.

Mottagandwet vid ankomst och service var utmärkt

Eftersom generalstrejken den 29 september 2010 hindrade mig att flyga vidare till min destination i norra Spanien behövde jag ett hotellrum nära Atocha för att kunna ta ett tidigt morgontåg norrut nästa dag. För mina syften var läget perfekt, liksom det faktum att jag kunde få ett rum med kort varsel. Rummet utmärktes av en särpräglad design (ex.vis stor plasma-TV monterad på stor ställning av rostigt industrijärn) som jag fann mer intressant än trivsam. Men detta är en smaksak som jag inte håller emot hotellet. Däremot saknade jag gammaldags funktionalitet: där fanns exempelvis ingen bänk att lägga upp resväskan på så att man enkelt kunde ta upp de saker man behövde. Andra småsaker skulle kunna nämnas, men förmodligen berodde allt på att det var ett handikappsanpassat rum (som jag fått pga den stora anstormningen av resenärer som inte kom vidare från Madrid den dagen), och att funktionaliteten var av en art som inte var anpassad för mig (som icke-handikappad). Men i det krisläge som rådde pga generalstreken var rummet fullt adekvat.

Great location for visiting the big three Madrid art museums and near the railroad station. Some rude behavior by a few staff members, especially one evening waiter in the restaurant.

Excellent location - literally 5 minutes walk to Prado and Thyssen Museums and an easy walk to many other places including Atocha railway station - good for trips out of town. Managers/staff friendly - despite basic English - and clearly concerned about our security. Easy to use in room safe and free WiFi. Double glazed windows mean a quiet room when you need it - but you can open and enjoy the streetlife below. No complaints.
