Hostal Montaloya

Just across to metro station. Clean.

Building is old, but rooms are good enough.

The hotel was fantasist value for money and had everything I needed. Apart from no security safe in my room there was literally not a single bad this about my room or the hotel. The double bed was comfy + memory foam pillows, the Bathroom was super clean & the shower was surprisingly really powerful. The air conditioning worked great (so while it was always 40 degrees outside, the AC made the room a very chilled 18 degrees within a couple of minutes off turning it on, so sleeping was no issue). All members of staff where friendly / helpful and spoke a good level of English. The location could not have been any better as there is a metro station right outside the hotel and the hotel is positioned in the middle of all the main tourist attractions in Madrid plus there is lots restaurants / cafés to eat and an unlimited amount of convenience stores to buy all kinds of food and essentials. Checking in was very smooth and simple and I checked out in the middle of the night at 4:00am and all I had to do was give a few hours notice, sign the confirmation form that I was going to check out and then post my room key in a little postbox next to the reception desk at 4:00 when I left. Overall I give Hostal Montaloya a 9.9/10 and would 100% stay here again + recommend it to my family & friends.

No security safe to keep small valuable items likes electrical devices protected but was literally the only negative thing about the room and even this wasn’t a big issue as the hotel itself had a very secure feel about it as a whole.
