The hotel is located just off the Grand Via in a quiet and slightly down market street. The downside is that the area is frequented by prostitutes, however this should not put you off as they are unobtrusive. The hotel itself is well located and clean. I found the staff friendly and the breakfasts varied and substantial. Normal fare for... more

Located just one block off Gran Via so great location. Side street perhaps not the best but not a big issue. Touted as four star but on the basic side of that category. Rates are usually reasonable so in line with standard. Rooms large and comfortable although somewhat basic for a four star hotel. OK breakfast buffet for a Spanish... more

First, about pluses Keep in mind that this is a budget hotel situated in a central part of the city. Very convenient for sight-seeing: we managed to get almost everywhere on foot. Room was basic but fine - I did like the long corridor - so we didn't hear the lift or the neighbors. Clean bathroom with plenty of towels,... more

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Siete Islas for four nights in September 2009. As previously mentioned the hotel is located on a seedy street but we never felt unsafe in any way. Hotel is central and right next to Gran Via - metro station is a couple of minutes walk. Close to shops, bars and restaurants. More than... more

Central, quiet and good value. Breakfast is good. Located in a prostitution area girls won't bother you if you're not alone. Rooms are confortable and despite being so well-located and some construction works nearby you can have a good night sleep. more

Booked this hotel as part of an internet madrid city break deal for the May Bank Holiday weekend. The hotel is just a few steps away from the Gran Via metro station situated in the "centre" of "centro" - the city centre. The madrid metro is on a par with London & Berlin underground / metro systems so having the... more

Just had a three night stay at this hotel and was very pleased with it. The hotel enjoys an excellent location, just a stone's throw from the Gran Via Metro station. From the hotel we walked to the plaza mayor (ten minutes) El Parque Retiro (15 minutes) and plenty of other attractions. Madrid is suprisingly compact. My guide book descibed... more

This hotel is very well situated, especially for all visitors who want to use the Metro and walk between some of the key sites and retail areas. It is just 1 1/2 short blocks from Grand Via, a famed shopping, dining and people-watching boulevard. For those familiar with Times Square in New York, you will feel at home on the... more

We used this hotel as a stopover in Madrid for 1 day when changing flights. We checked in late at night and nothing was too much effort for the staff. Very central location close to bus and Metro stops. They have a facility to leave luggage in reception for the day you depart. This was good for us as our... more
