The Hospes offers the best compromise possible to stay in Madrid: Very close to some of the city of Madrid top venues, but in a residential area where locals live and you get a feeling of staying at the city, and not just at a touristic area.
Overall Review
The Hospes Puerta de Alcala is one of our favorite hotels in Madrid. The building is fantastic and the location cannot be better; right in front of two of Madrid´s top icons: Puerta de Alcala and the Retiro park.
The style of the hotel could be defined as modern vintage. It respects certain elements of the traditional building, but provides with an overall modern look.
Our favorite items at this hotel are the swiming pool and the spa center.
This hotel is perfect for couples seeking a romantic stay in Madrid, but it can also be excellent for families that want to ensure a green area is close to their hotel and that also want to have the option to enjoy the rare gem of a swimming pool at the heart of Madrid.
