We stayed because of the location across the street from the train station. ...

Latroupe Prado
Beautiful room in a nice location. Super convenient to get to all the attractions, but still quiet enough for a good rest. Booked a private room instead of shared room.

Hotel Riu Plaza España
Everything is fine except the bed, the pillows and the blanket are not so comfy. The room feels not so luxurious.

Hostal Madrid Atocha
Room was immaculate. Bathroom-shower was ingeniously designed. Second day no floor towel was left for after shower, but cleaning service made up my bed and left the room tidy. Loved seeing the eco- room card which regulated the light. Lots of functioning tv channels!
