Find 2-Star Hotels in Madrid

Great value for money! I checked in at 2 AM, and the staff at the entrance were very kind and friendly. The AC in the room was adjustable and very powerful, which I appreciated. The location is excellent; there's a CoCo downstairs and many Carrefours nearby. The Carrefour next to Miniso even has those popular, often sold-out canvas bags from Xiaohongshu – what a pleasant surprise! It's also very close to city attractions; you can just take the free 001/002 bus. I got to see all the exhibitions I wanted to this trip and left feeling very satisfied.

The best in the area! Clean, organized, and the staff are incredibly welcoming! Plus, the location is perfect! I recommend it in every possible way!

Everything was good, I leave very satisfied with this hostel and would recommend for any solo traveller, very clean The only thing that could be better is the shower that it was a little bit difficult to get a good temperature and we have to click the shower button every minute to get more water to continue the shower so this was a little irritating but ok. Otherwise everything was perfect

This review is not about the €9 breakfast charge. I paid for the breakfast because I had eaten it. This review is about how I was treated afterwards. A simple misunderstanding over breakfast escalated into one of the most unprofessional hotel experiences I have ever had. After I politely suggested that the hotel communicate its breakfast policy more clearly to avoid similar misunderstandings in the future, a staff member, Yansel, began shouting at me from outside the hotel, called me back inside, repeatedly accused me of “trying to play with him,” raised his voice throughout the interaction, claimed that he was the manager, refused my request to speak with the General Manager, and aggressively handled my personal belongings. He pushed and kicked my luggage towards the exit, damaged my bags, repeatedly shouted at me to take my belongings and leave, and I also felt mocked while trying to communicate in English instead of being treated with patience and professionalism. As a solo female traveller, I found this behaviour intimidating and completely unacceptable. Guests should be able to raise feedback respectfully without being shouted at, aggressively confronted, or having their belongings handled in this manner. I later spoke with Raul, who was professional, apologised for the way I had been treated, acknowledged that there had been been a misunderstanding regarding the breakfast, confirmed that I was entitled to leave my luggage after check-out, and informed me that Yansel was not the General Manager or the manager. I appreciate Raul’s professionalism. However, that does not change what happened. Based on my experience, I would not recommend staying at Hotel Mayerling Madrid. There are many hotels in Madrid where guests can expect to be treated with professionalism and respect. In my experience, this was not one of them. As a solo female traveller, I did not feel safe after the way this situation was handled. For that reason, I cannot recommend this hotel and would encourage other travellers to consider alternative accommodation.

To check in, you need to contact them via WhatsApp at the entrance. The staff responsible for check-ins weren't very responsive, and I had to wait 5-10 minutes, even making a call to them. However, another staff member, an uncle who manages the hostel, was incredibly warm and genuine. I forgot my locker code twice and he kindly reset it for me. The biggest downside was definitely the room, mainly due to a strong odor. Some guests' body odor was so overwhelming and the ventilation wasn't good, which severely impacted the living experience. I couldn't sleep at all that night, partly because of the pervasive snoring from many guests. The continuous snoring led me to pack my bags and leave at around 3 AM. Overall, the facilities were fine, and the downtown location is excellent, but the room smell was just too much.

The location of Petit Hostel La Latina is good, and the hygiene is acceptable. The staff also have a good service attitude. However, on two occasions, my key card stopped working and needed to be re-activated. I asked the front desk if I needed to re-activate it before checking out, and they said no. Yet, the key card failed again. The room in this small hostel is tiny. The water for showering and washing stops automatically after a very short time, and there's nowhere to hang clothes.

The hotel is relatively new, with a simple yet modern design. It's not far from the metro station, and attractions like the Royal Palace are about a 30-minute journey away. The staff were quite friendly and allowed us to check in early. The room was a bit small, but it's acceptable for the price.

This hostel offers a very good balance between price and quality. The room, bathroom, sheets, and towels are clean. The location is very central, yet it is completely quiet on the third floor. Check-in may be complicated for non-Spanish-speaking guests, as you do not receive any information prior to arrival. Shampoo and shower gel are provided. The air conditioning is new and works very well. This place opened in 2023.

I genuinely think this place is fantastic! The room had great hot water pressure, and being in the city center felt very safe. Both the subway and bus stops are super convenient. The staff were all very friendly, and the air conditioning in the room was excellent and clean. I really recommend it for solo female travelers! (Plus, it seems they offer a coupon for a drink/juice, which is a nice touch!)

The location is fantastic, with the subway, bus terminal, Carrefour, and various restaurants all within 150 meters. It's incredibly convenient to stay here. The only downside is that you have to climb stairs, which can be a bit challenging for ladies.
