The Room Mate Macarena is an excellent 3 star hotel that provides services closer to what you expect from 4 star hotels.
Location is fantastic if you enjoy to be close to most places, though for some people this may be too touristic.
The decoration is very modern and chic, though it may not please everybody.
We love above all its rooftop terrace. The added value of the pool is a great asset during the summer season. Do not expect to swim in the pool though, this is more a place to relax and refresh.
This is a romantic choice that will please couples. We believe this may not be the best hotel for families. The hotel offers overall good value for money. If budget is not too much of a problem and you would like to enjoy a similar hotel but with more charm, at a historical building, and even better location, we recommend you have a look at the Pestana Plaza Mayor hotel.
