Stay at Emperador”
Location, Front Desk staff, Pool
We stayed at the Emperador for five nights at the end of a whirlwind tour through Europe. It was the perfect place to end our holiday! It was in a fantastic location for wandering and soaking up Madrid. Was handy to quite a few major highlights like the Plaza de Espana and Palais Royale. Loads of taxis available outside the hotel for anything else. Heaps of restaurants and shops also very close. Pool was a definite highlight. Lovely way to cool off in the afternoons. Would definitely stay there again.

Hotel correcto”
Muy bien situado y tranquilo
Puerta de entrada deberian arreglarla. Wifi de pago, desayuno algo mas variado. Puertas de los balcones cierran mal.
Hotel excelentemente situado, muy cerca de teatros, cines y tiendas, con un acceso de metro en la puerta y a menos de 10 min, de otras lineas de metro. Habitaciones correctas, aunque habria que arregral algunas puertas de las terrazas y la puerta de entrada al hotel, que hay que hacer pesas para mover la puerta giratoria, los desayunos estab bien , aunque para ser un 4 estrellas deberia ser un poco mas variado, es monotono. el servicio de habitaciones bien, aunque a veces se olvidan de reponer amenites o el higienico por ejemplo. El personal de recepcion sosos y serios en exceso, al contrario que el del comedor.
