Madrid Hotels > less than 25 rooms Madrid Hotels > £40 to £59

Advantages: Nice staff, clean, kettle in the room
Disadvantages: The local area, rather expensive

This is yet another hotel stayed in when travelling with work. It's a four star hotel (Ciao has it listed as a three star) and is located in the business district in Madrid. The Estadio Santiago Bernabeau, the home of Real Madrid football club is also very close by if you are interested in football. Public transport is very good-metro station and bus stop near by, the bus is one Euro into central Madrid and unlike London they have plenty of bus ...
...rubbish strewn everywhere! The hotel itself is a typical sprawling 1980's concrete block. The surrounding area is a bit dodgy at night and opposite the hotel is a boarded up cinema. In fact the whole area is pretty much a concrete jungle and I would be careful with going out after dark as it's pretty deserted once the businesses have shut for the evening. I expected the financial district to be like the City of London-busy, gleaming, new etc but ... Read review

Advantages: Friendly staff, great ambiance, decor, cleanliness
Disadvantages: Can be crowded

...in true luxury, then the Silken Puerta America is the place to go. Great facilities, excellent location, friendly staff, and surprisngly reasonable prices if you "shop around" the Net for special deals. Located about 2 minutes walk from Caragena metro station, the Hotel is in a quiet part of town, and yet the centre, with all it's attractions, is just two metro stops away, and a return metro journey costs only 2 euros, which is less than £2.00. ...
...to see what good value Madrid can be as a holiday destination. From the outside, the Puerta America does not look anything special - just a high rise with some strange grafitti-style writing in many languages, all over the facade......... but step over the threshold into the large and airy Reception area, and you are in another world. Each of the floors of the Hotel has been individually designed by world-renowned designers, so each has it's own ... Read review

Advantages: Cheaper than city, clean and tidy,
Disadvantages: location, language

...my birthday and stayed at hotel praga for 3 days. It is located out of the centre but not too far away, there is a metro station 5 min from the hotel which is great and easy to use, the same as the one in london if that makes it easier for you. its 1 euro for a one way ticket, the down side is the staff dont exactly speak alot of english, which can be tricky at busy times of the day.We got a taxi from the airport which cost about 27-28 euro, easy ...
...us. Its a 24 hour hotel so there is no problem with getting back after goin to the city at night. There is no gift shop or anything to do in the hotel at all, its really good for business people who travel quite a lot. But its a lot cheaper to stay at hotel praga than somewere in the city. Overall then it was a good place to stay and was in quite a good location and i would go back again. 3 nights in hotel praga cost £40 per night per room ... Read review

Advantages: reasonably-priced rooms, clean modern facilities, near airport
Disadvantages: no easy access to city centre

...day. Near the hotel there is nothing much you can walk to except a few bars and very local menu del dia cafes beloved of local lorry drivers - one three star hotel nearby with a reasonable but overpriced restaurant (nice terrace) and a nice trade in ladies of the night! It is right on the motorway - hence convenient for the airport. Facilities It is apparently the largest hotel in Europe and is MASSIVE. So if you want anonymity - perfect! It ...
...car in the lobby! The hotel bars are not local prices (i.e. not dirt cheap) but on a par with UK drinks prices. They will serve you spirits until you say "when" though, rather than in piddly little UK measures so it's still good value. If you are a night owl be warned though - the hotel bar closes around 2am and there is no 24 access for residents so you might have to resort to your limited minibar. The rooms themselves - most have massive 6 foot ... Read review

Advantages: Esxcellent location, spacious clean rooms
Disadvantages: Small reception area and lift.

This hotel appears to be a recently converted apartment building and the exterior is bright and clean, though the signage isn't very visible until you are at the entrance. The reception area is quite long and narrow, but well designed and laid out, and is staffed 24 hours. There was a modern lift, though it was quite small and cramped, but very handy for taking luggage up to your room. The rooms are bright and spacious, complete with equally large ...
...small kitchen area with a sink, hob and a fridge, which was great for chilling bottles of refreshing soda drinks. When we visited the hotel had not long opened and so the cupboards were yet to be stocked with crockery, cutlery or utensils. This was really the only inconvenience as we couldn't make tea or coffee when we wanted. The rooms are recently decorated and the beds were extremely comfortable. The room had a bright, modern décor and tiled ... Read review
