This hotel is wonderful. Even though it is huge, it works like a well oiled machine. From there delicious breakfast to the coordination of elevators, the cleanliness and the quiet. The location is incredible! With Plaza de España across the street and the metro within a few feet of the hotel door, getting anywhere is easy. Great experience overall.

Can’t control ac on winter time, either hot or vent mode. No ac cool mode. Sometimes room was hot and you have to open window to let air in and cool it. But then you hear the noise from outside. Rooftop cool but overcrowded. Far from Plaza Mayor and Plaza del Sol. Breakfast was very good.

Nice hotel, if a bit sterile. my room (deluxe king) was good, but nothing special. The rooftop bars were very nice and had great views of the city. Breakfast offerings were substantial and the breakfast room was enormous. I would say that it is very similar to your average Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton, but with more staff.
