An excellent stay. This is my fourth time staying in this hotel and it continues to shine. The Elba team does a great job of running this property efficiently while insuring a welcoming atmosphere with great attention to detail. We stayed in a suite and recommend one if you're traveling as a couple and want a bit more room to spread out. This property has two suite configurations and both have much going for them. There's a room divider (sliding doors) configuration that has a closet to die for as well as a multi-stream high-tech shower (along with a traditional shower/tub combination. The second configuration connects the bedroom and living room with a hallway and a traditional bathroom setup. This configuration is a bit better if one of the travelers needs to work and not disrupt the other (even a little). Both have televisions in both bedroom and living room areas, mini bar, coffee maker, kettle, etc. Linens and towels are as excellent as one would expect in a four-star hotel in a major city. The neighborhood is not oppulent but that adds to the charm. There's two to three dozen restaurants and bars nearby ranging from two highly rated restaurants (one Italian and one Peruvian) and all in-between (for Americans and Canadians, there is a KFC, a Burger King, a Taco Bell, and a Tim Hortons all nearby if you should crave fast North American food.) There are two Metro stations nearby and both are on line five. Travel to the Ventas neighborhoos (bullring, bullfighting themes taverns, and assorted shops) is less than ten minutes by Metro. The center of Madris is about twenty minutes by Metro. There is a great 100+ year old park (Quinta de los Molinos) a couple of blocks away with ample open space and trails should you need to decompress. Highly recommend this hotel as our go-to property when in Madrid!!

“Very fine 4 star hotel”

We only spent two nights here in February, 2024 but found the hotel exceeded our expectations. We've been to Madrid many times and usually stay either near the airport or in the central area.

We only spent two nights here in February, 2024 but found the hotel exceeded our expectations. We've been to Madrid many times and usually stay either near the airport or in the central area. But this hotel popped up with an excellent price for a 4-star hotel in Madrid so we gave it a try. Please note that I am very price sensitive in Madrid since it's the most expensive city in Spain--but I still like a nice hotel. It's quite conveniently located--there's a lot of essentials nearby. Restaurants and two Metro stations. Please don't mistake my "convenient" description for being close to central Madrid. It's still quite a ways on the Metro to get there. But we didn't need to be central on this trip. The hotel itself was nicer than I was expecting. I've never stayed at an Elba hotel before and don't see them popping up much but I see there are a few of them and will certainly consider staying at another one again--including this one! Now if I can just avoid that 4am check-out to go to the airport ;-)

“Stay near to the airport”

The hotel is located on Calle Alcala near the underground (Cuidad Lineal), it is far from the city centre but is convenient if you want to stay near the airport. The rooms are ok but the air conditioning did not work properly, if you have a sunny room you can die because it is crazy hot. I had ... more

The hotel is located on Calle Alcala near the underground (Cuidad Lineal), it is far from the city centre but is convenient if you want to stay near the airport. The rooms are ok but the air conditioning did not work properly, if you have a sunny room you can die because it is crazy hot. I had to keep the shutters closed all day and use the blackout curtains all the time. The staff are really friendly and the restaurant service is super good, I had a tortilla de patata and mosto. The food was good too and they have good beer. They only provide shampoo, body wash, toothbrush and towels In addition to the kettle, tea and coffee.
