Central, clean and lovely Staff
The hotel was in a great location and was very clean. The continental breakfast was good and the staff were nice.
Very nice stay. Clean and spacey rooms, nicw breakfast. Thank you!
While we enjoyed the location of this hotel, we did not find that it was in alignment with it's 4-star rating. The rooms and bathrooms are quite bare and stark. Our hair dryer was little more than a gentle breeze, and there is nothing in the way of conditioner or lotion, so bring your own. The mattresses felt like foam, which was fine but we were just there for 2 nights. The front desk staff were to the point. Near the desk in our room, you could see the bare edge of drywall. We are also aware that we likely experienced higher pricing during our stay, as we unknowingly booked during an annual festival in the city. Likely due to that, the price paid felt higher than the level of accommodation. We likely would not return to this hotel, but there wasn't anything technically wrong with it.
Very good breakfast, lovely staff!
There was a lot of noise coming from the hallway and adjacent rooms which woke me from my sleep. I had exchanged emails prior to arrival with staff outlining that this trip was to mark a special occasion and they had said a note was made to see if anything could be done to enhance our stay. On arrival it was clear that this note was either not made or passed on.
Very good location. Room and bathroom have naice size. Very comfortable bed and pillow.
Staff os good, breakfast is better than usually. Local options are good. Room is in not the best state, black mold in the bathroom, dirty curtains, very bad isolation from other rooms and the street. Very cold inside. Room was big but completely empty. I have stayed in many one chain hotels. Even if the room is small, it os cozy and nice. Here the state was questionable
Hotel was in great location, was well presented and beautifully clean. Staff were knowledgeable of the area, very friendly and helpful. Only thing that might improve a stay would be tea/coffee making facilities in the room
Clean, very central and very nice Staff
Two of us spent 5 nights here. We can’t fault it. Everything is just great. Rooms and beds are comfortable, noise from outside not a problem due to excellent glazing, the staff are all (without exception) really nice and welcoming. We love the layout with lobby/bar/reception/breakfast all in one. Decor is cheerful and interesting. Location is superb. We stayed in Motel One in Copenhagen and it’s exactly the same vibe. We’ll always look out for a Motel One when planning our travels!
I love this hotel and have stayed here twice when visiting with my son who lives nearby. The hotel is modern, clean, very comfortable, in a great location, and both times it has been exceptionally quiet which is sometimes hard to find when visiting Europe. They also have a nice breakfast that you can purchase for 15 euros which I found very reasonable considering the offerings. I will be back the next time I come to Madrid to visit my son.
Central, very clean and excellent breakfast
The hotel was lovely. The one drawback was the air conditioning system which struggled to keep the room at a comfortable temperature.
When we make reservation from booking, we are not informed that we are having connecting rooms. Because of noise and talking, I couldn’t sleep for 2 nights.
Clean place. Good breakfast.
Very comfortable, exceptionally clean hotel, very well located.
The room was too hot, and the air condition did not seem to do any difference. So we didn't sleep well during the stay. Breakfast was good. Staff was nice overall, but when we asked for a mailbox they did not try to find one, just replaid that there is probobly one at Plaza Espana.
Excellent. Great staff.
The front desk staff were consistently courteous and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were modest but clean, which is what matters most. The TV didn’t work, but it wasn’t an issue for us since we were out exploring most of the time. The included breakfast was decent, with fresh coffee and rolls. The location is very central, making it easy to get around on foot for sightseeing. Overall, it’s a solid place to stay.
Rooms need renovartion
Very good services
Once again, I was really pleased with my stay at a Motel 1. The location was great, the rooms spacious and clean, same with the bathroom and the hotel has excellent soundproof windows. The staff is very welcoming and very helpful.
Overall I had a good experience in your hotel. I just have some pain points to share: - the heating in the room is noisy - there was no beverage, such as a bottle of water, available in the fridge (even payant) - the room isolation is not good, I could hear a lot the noise from outside.
Excellent services. I've appreciated the openess of the personell to customer needs and also help with storing luggage until flight hour was absolutely great. I will search further to book Motel One also on other visits from other cities.
Spacious, clean and attractive room in an excellent location
Breakfast was not good enough. Doesn't value for the money the room. The stuff was friendly.

Very central anc clean hotel, staff very nice and parking available
Great Hotel in the city centre, 3 minutes walk to Plaza d' Espana, clean and staff is great
This was by far the best stay ever. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The staff help us with taxi, food ideas and everything else in between. The best staff yet at any hotel we have ever had.
Very good motel. Very friendly staff.
All good ; just one thing : we would have been happy to have a cofee machine and a boiling machine in our room.
The hall is very inviting and well-furnished. The room as well had all facilities, the only downpart was the lock from the inside, it didn't feel super safe. Everything else was spotless and clean I appreciated having gluten-free options for breakfast.
Excelent!!!
The location of the hotel is excellent. Rooms are tidy, bed very comfortable, breakfast tasty, staff friendly. Price is a bit high…
Central, clean and very cosy. With garage
Overall we were very happy with our stay. Fabulous location, spacious and clean rooms, nice modern hotel, staff were attentive and cool. Room had no kettle, tea or coffee or mini bar and just one shampoo/shower gel but that was ok by us. Cleanliness and comfort more important. However, given the cost of the accommodation I would have expected at least more facilities in the room. Also breakfast at €14.50 per person should have had more variety / options . Also the key cards failed twice for one of the rooms our adult children were staying in but it was resolved but this does not happen in other hotels.
Clean, modern. Breakfast OK - bit short on tables. Nice bar area. Rooms modern, clean.
Unfortunately there were very few option for a vegan breakfast. I understand cultural differences, but you have many international customers and given the high breakfast standards Motel One usually has, I was sad to be presented with fruit salad and two spreads as my only breakfast options.
Nice hotel, great service and good location

Location and surroundings
Hotel Madrid
A Spanish spin on joie de vivre
Be honest: when you hear the words laissez-faire or savoir-vivre, the first place that comes to mind is Paris, right? There’s another European city giving the French capital a run for its money as the centre of the good life: Madrid. Fiery flamenco, prodigious night owls, football fit for a king – this city never sleeps a wink.
But Spanish laissez-faire extends well beyond the historic streets of the old town. It’s also in every nook and cranny of the Motel One Madrid-Plaza de España – especially in the One Lounge. You can hear the clacking of castanets in our cosy, flamenco-red velvet armchairs. Order ‘una sangría, por favor’ in your best Spanish at the hotel bar and watch the hustle and bustle through the large panorama windows. Did you know that your hotel is situated in one of Madrid’s most beautiful squares? Plaza de España is at the very heart of Madrid’s cultural scene.
May we introduce you to your Madrid city guide? The hotel itself does a super job. A huge map of the city hanging in the lounge at Motel One Madrid-Plaza de España will show you the way from the Plaza Mayor along the Gran Vía to the Palacio Real. And if you’re stumped, simply log onto our free WiFi and look up the city’s famed sites – a little cheating is allowed.
Ready to check it all out in person now? Great! First stop: Plaza de España. Get to know your hotel’s namesake up close and personal. The square covers more than 70,000 square metres, with countless opportunities for visitors to stroll, linger and relax. Next up: Palacio Real de Madrid. This 18th-century palace is home to nobility and the well-heeled. Read: ‘rich and royal’. Estadio Santiago Bernabéu houses different kinds of kings: this stadium is where Real Madrid, also known as ‘the royals’, grace the sacred turf. On the way back to your hotel, take a detour toward the city centre and check out Gran Vía, the ‘lifeline of Madrid’. Would you believe that more than 10 million people walk down this boulevard every year? Final stop: your Hotel Madrid. But don’t worry! There’s no bedtime here. Because as you know, Madrid is the city that never sleeps.
