We stayed at the Villa Real for New Year this year We stayed for 5 nights having stayed here a couple of years ago. I have a rule that says "you should be very wary of returning to a hotel that you loved on a previous trip" however I could not resist the Villa Real. When we arrived we were... more

After the bad experience I had in the hotel I had initially booked to stay in Madrid (Senator Gran Via), Hotel Villa Real was an authentic escape to heaven!! The 2 days my husband and I have stayed there changed our opinion on the city. We booked the duplex suite: the first floor looks like a home office with a... more

Villa Real is in the perfect location! Literally a five minute walk to the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, a ten minute walk to the Museo del Prado, and then from the Prado an additional ten minutes to the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía. The hotel is also situated a fifteen walk to Plaza Mayor. Thus, it is extremely centrally located... more

The location of this hotel couldn't be better: a short walk from the Prado and the Tyssen-Bornemisza museum. It is also close to abundant restaurants and tapa bars. But other than the excellent location, and in view of its relatively high prices, the hotel has little to recommend it. The rooms are small and the service indifferent. One day our... more

Enjoyed 5 nights including the hotel's New Year's Eve banquet. Bottle of red wine and fruit from the management as a NYE gift was nice touch on arriving. Location: very near the Prado and in an up-market area of town. Opposite Parliament. I found it convenient walking around the old Madrid part of town. Say half an hour's walk to... more

This is a hotel that gives the impression that it matters to the staff that your stay is as pleasant as possible. The room, with its split level arrangement of bed/lounging areas, was kept very clean and tidy and little details like a “good night” chocolate on your pillow each night was a nice touch. At the reception desk, the... more

Stayed for 2 nights in June 2007 on Business. Location of the hotel was fantastic and within walking distance to the major museums. The rooms were also very comfortable and modern. Only downside was the public areas / bar. We arrived very late one evening and having refused to serve us 5 mins before the supposed closing time, the bar... more
