In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Well-connected location — A five-minute walk from Chamartin station and close to Plaza de Castilla bus hub, the hotel is easy to reach and a good base for day trips and business.
  • Food and drink — Dining scores highly, with a rooftop bar serving praised drinks and a breakfast buffet that guests call impressive.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness could be more consistent — The lowest rating category, 'Rooms and cleanliness' scores a 6 out of 10, suggesting the physical upkeep of some rooms may not match the overall rating.
  • Price and service lag behind — With a 'Price and service' score of 5, the value proposition and service levels may not meet expectations for some guests.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Not the cheapest option — One guest noted the hotel is more expensive than what they usually pay, though they felt the room quality justified it.
