Didn't want to fall into the usual tourist trap in Madrid, so decided La Latina would be an interesting alternative. The area is great with numerous bars and tapas restaurants all over. It's walkable into the main city centre too. The hotel itself was great. The staff could not have been any friendlier. Bar staff, reception staff were all very... More

We stayed at Ganivet Hotel in January 2012. The room was basic but clean and comfortable, staff helpful and friendly and the car park under the hotel very useful. This hotel is a good base for central Madrid being close to the Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol and the amazing Mercado de San Miguel. More

Breakfast was included, which was always very filling, though after 3 days became a bit repetitive in offerings. The room was clean and comfortable, but the shower did not have a proper door/shower curtain. The free in-room wifi and water cooler in... More

We got a good deal at 51 euros (no refund). The hotel is just a few years old. So everything is fairly new. The bed was comfortable. It was typical Spanish--2 single beds joined together to make a "king". We slept great. We asked to be far from the elevator as some had suggested. Some make complaints about the shower... More

Opted to stay at the Ganivet after reading positive reviews and was not disappointed. Myself and my girlfriend wanted a cheap hotel in a good location for a weekend in Madrid. We knew we would be spending most of our time in Madrid out and about, so we just wanted somewhere safe, secure and clean to sleep and the Ganivet... More
