Nice hotel. It's clean, quiet, and has friendly staff. Although I never tried the breakfast, they do offer it. There is a mini supermarket in front of it, and a coffee and pastry shop next to it.

Awesome Hotel in Madrid. Very pleasant stay we had for 4 days. Staff was great, from the check in to the end check out. Excellent breakfast with awesome staff. Cleaness of the rooms, room service was great daily. Everything was excellent except the air conditioning - we couldn’t have control of it except on and off. It was a bit annoying blowing right on you during the night - the way vents were installed. Other than that - we had a very good experience in this hotel thought out 4 days. Thank you Catalonia front desk and back staff.

Stayed for one night. Room was clean and comfortable. It was quiet because the room window faced toward an inner courtyard (enclosed by the building). Maybe this is why the internet was slow. Location was fine - 4-5 streets from a metro station. Short walking distance to restaurants. I would stay again, and try the breakfast.

Its nice hotel, great helpful staff specially Christina!🙏 a few feet away from subway, bus and grocery. Mostly remodeled and clean. We got this hotel last minute since our Airb&b was not as expected. So we booked this hotel 30 min before checking in. They had to switch our room to get us a double bed after the first night. First room was perfect exept it has two twin bed. Second night we went to another room with double bed, hiw ever this room was not yet remodeled and had some minor cosmetics with the caulking on the bath tube and floor tiles. But overall nice, clean and convenient. Its worth the price, just ask for complete remodeled room.

Hot as Hades!

It was really hot here. We woke up in the middle of the night and the room was 24 degrees (76F) and we couldn’t turn off the heat. Later it was 27 (80F), so we had to open a window. The heat affected our sleep.
