ibis Madrid Aeropuerto Barajas
Nice clean hotel a short drive from Madrid Airport. A few local bars and restaurants close by, and a supermarket. The hotel had its own bar and restaurant. Excellent staff. Good value for the money, not high quality but a great place to stay.

Hotel Clement Barajas
We only stayed at this hotel one night. We chose it because it was very close to the airport and we had a flight to catch. The hotel was clean and comfortable. Despite being near the hotel we never heard any noise from the planes taking off or landing. Good breakfast.
