Marriott Properties in Madrid

A high-quality hotel with excellent transport connections, located just outside the city center’s green zone. Friendly and helpful staff. A downside for cleanliness, as the bed sheets had to be changed due to stains on them. Some noise could be heard from the neighboring rooms. There was also a minor issue with the night lights, as they turned on by themselves a few times. The room was spacious with city views, and everything functioned as you would expect from such a new hotel.

Location: Not far from the airport, about a 30-minute drive. There are no subway stations nearby. If you're heading into the city, you can consider taking the HOTEL BUS to the airport and then transferring to the subway or train. Price: Not expensive. I booked three days in advance and it was over budget, but then I saw the price dropped in the evening, so I decisively canceled and rebooked. Transportation: The hotel offers a free HOTEL BUS. Its stop is right in front of where you catch buses after arriving. Look for the yellow 'BUS' signs at the airport; yellow indicates the HOTEL BUS. You can contact the hotel in advance for the routes and departure times. Environment: Pretty good. The hotel is quite large, with several buildings. Breakfast is from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Locals usually eat lunch around 1:00 PM, so you can take your time with breakfast since it also gets light late here. Service: People here aren't great at English. The front desk staff are okay; even if you can't understand what they're saying, they'll use gestures to make sure you get it.
