What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Rooms were clean, pretty quiet too! Location is perfect, very near the centre and other attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful, they gave us a list of nearest go to restaurants and bars. We also had breakfast, which was really, really good and worth the price. Thank you for the lovely stay!”
“Currently staying in this hotel, Tremendous. Location, comfort, and the staff are so pleasant. Acknowledged, and were able to make our little request happen. Absolutely first class service by reception. Best bed we've slept in apart from at home.”
“Stayed at Posada Del Dragón with my family and loved it! Great location near Plaza Mayor, clean and cozy rooms with a nice view, and super friendly staff. The restaurant’s tapas were amazing. Perfect spot for exploring Madrid on foot!”
“CHARMING, LOVELY, PERFECT. Our balcony over the road was something we throughly enjoyed.The ringing church bells on Sunday were devine. The location was exactly what we wanted. Sitting in the heart of tapa paradise, with friends gathering all around in the evening for wonderful times and food. Speaking of which the hotel itself has its own hopping little bar area, and multiple areas to have a nice dining experience from their own restaurant. Staff was wonderful and the rooms were A+. Clean and quiet, great decor, super linens, and COMFORTABLE BEDS!!!! Would stay here again and again. Thank you for the wonderful stay!”
“Excelente location and frindly people. Walkable to many attractions but the best part was the Tapa bars right there, on the same street. I highly recommend it.”
“Very nice boutique hotel in one of the best touristic areas in Madrid. Room was comfortable, clean and neat. A/C worked perfectly, even in late fall. 5 minute walk to Plaza Mayor, steps away from La Latina restaurants and night life. Parking can be challenging, but there are public underground parking spots within a 10 minute walk. Lobby has a bar/coffee bar. Note that breakfast bar may not be included on rate and it is $30. there are plenty of places for breakfast within a short walk.”
