“This property's prime advantage is undeniably its location near Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol; that said, elements within the hotel require modernization to truly match its 4-star billing. I noted recurring concerns about room conditions and breakfast quality, though the friendly staff received consistent praise. With some improvements, the hotel could fully capitalize on its enviable history and prime location.”
