Madrid hotels near Plaza de Espana

Cons: Nothing about this hotel that I can say bad.

Cons: The older rooms are quite crappy, and I would not have stayed in that. Also, being winter, the A/C is turned off. But, it's hard to open the window, so our room was quite hot. An there was no working fan.

Cons: Will stay at Axel over and over again!

Cons: The staff charged for breakfast when we didn't even attended the breakfast neither we called for breakfast in the room.When I challenged it they took off the charges. My family checked out of one room a day before and they were charged extra too. They were running late for the airport so they paid without checking exactly. But next day when I checked out and asked them to produce the evidence of me or my husband in the breakfast room or the call recording of the phone if we called for breakfast in the room. All of a sudden the staff took off all the charges. This makes me think that my family has been charged extra too as they didn't check

Cons: The rooms are a bit dated.

Cons: Only complaint was that the room was dusty in certain areas.

Cons: We reserved a room with breakfast thru 'get a room' and surprised to see that it was not a buffet breakfast!!! for getting the buffet breakfast we needed to add some more money.... Not all the recommendations of the concierges were good, sometimes it seemed like they recommended places that they had personal interests/connections in.

Cons: Room furnishings and hall carpets need refreshing

Cons: Take the following review with a grain of salt. I am a young person who grew up poor and wanted, for once, the "Ritz" experience: While I am a big fan of trying new things, I have to say that the Ritz experience just wasn't for me. I don't mean to be crass, but if I had a fistful of fives - I can think of a few places I'd rather spend it than tipping the endless stream of people trying to help me with things. Additionally, there is a little doll that you place on your door if you do not wish to be disturbed. Note: Don't leave the doll up for very long, because if you do, they will call your room until you answer so that they can ask when the next time they can come in your room is. I nap maybe... 2-3 times per year at most, and I am severely irritated that they felt the need to call during my biannual nap to ask me when they can come in my room. Instead of changing my sheets 3X per day, how about leaving me the hell alone when I have my DO NOT DISTURB DOLL up? Perhaps I am not cut out for the lifestyle, but I don't want/need people treating me like a helpless child, yet simultaneously making me feel "lower" than they are. Every time I offered a "no thanks, I don't need a taxi, I'm walking" or walked into the hotel from the street, I received these weird looks of incredulity/disdain that I didn't particularly care for. When I brought my own luggage downstairs on checkout I absolutely horrified the front desk attendant. Why the need to treat people like this? I have no idea. My recommendation? Take the $500 per night you'd spend here for the standard room and split it in half. Take $250 / night to spend on some other hotel's suite. Take the other $250 and stick it back in your pocket.

Cons: Only way for this to be better was for it to be free

Cons: If you don't eat at one of the restaurants across from the hotel you have to walk a long way for others

Cons: Decor is a bit dated

Cons: There is no air conditioner in all the rooms. If you don't like to sweat during the night, don't choose this hostel in the summer. It's very hot/stuffy and uncomfortable.

Cons: I wish there was a way to avoid being blinded in the night by the roommates. If there were curtains to close on the bunk beds that would help greatly.
