When it comes to traveling, whether for leisure or business, booking the right hotel with suitable facilities and located at the right location for a reasonable price can be notoriously tricky. When reading reviews, it's also important to remember. While some people prefer hotels away from the hustle and bustle of the City, others prefer to stay right in the heart of the City. So the choice of a room depends a lot on your personal preferences. With that in mind, if you are the type of person happy to stay a metro ride away outside of the City, this is the perfect hotel, and the staff was terrific. If you let the hotel know in advance, they will pick you up from the airport via a shuttle or Uber, which is about a ten-minute ride. Upon arrival, check-in was swift, and there was a pool to relax by after sightseeing which is a rarity in Madrid. There is also the option of a breakfast buffet for 12 euros. Location Football fans can take a 20-25 min walk to the Metropolitano Stadium, home of Athletico Madrid. For sightseeing, you simply need to turn left outside of the hotel and head to the Canillejas Metro Station. From the machine, pick up 1 x 10 journey metro ticket. If you are a couple, you can share it with your other half and pass the card back to your other half. From the Canillejas Metro Station, take Line 5 straight to Gran Via. It's around a 25-minute journey with no changes. When you leave the Gran Via station, it brings you outside a Mcdonald's, and you are right in the heart of the City. There is an easy-to-use mobile app where you add your destination and current metro stop, and it gives you the route, so it's nice and easy to get around. Back in the hotel, there aren't too many restaurant options around, but the Restaurante Goterón offers a great fixed menu that can be found on its Facebook Page. There is also the option of Uber eats if you are too tired to go out and a few nearby shops to pick up late snacks. Once again, the staff were terrific and had a solution for any problem I had, from opening a bottle of wine for me to the option of paying 30 Euros for a 4pm late checkout as our flight was in the evening. Overall An affordable hotel that is a 25-minute metro ride into the City and has a pool to relax by with great staff and transport o and from the airport are just a few reasons why I would recommend this hotel and choose to stay in again should I return. A big thank you to all the team who helped make our stay enjoyable.
Very Good
