Hotel Catalonia Atocha

The hotel is well appointed and our room 406 was very clean and quiet. For a hotel in central Madrid it was also of a good size as was the bathroom which had a very large shower cubicle. Only minor complaint was that the toiletries were not refreshed on the second day but this attention to detail is the difference between a good stay and a great one. The roof terrace although small was clean although drinks service hard to come by until the bar opened early evening. It is a lovely spot to enjoy an early evening drink in the sunshine with views over the city. The barman was particularly helpful and welcoming. The hotel is well placed for Retiro Park, Sol and Plaza Major as well as the charming back streets. Plenty of places to eat and drink nearby and very handy for the Anton Martin Metro Stop. Would have no hesitation in returning.

This hotel gave one of the best service experiences. We were in a mess when we booked this place after our previous hotel messed our booking (far atocha hostel down the road) so we hurriedly booked n stayed in Hotel Catalonia Atocha. My friends luggage was also misplaced by Air Europa so in 24hrs we had to see Madrid as well as await luggage n collect etc. The hotel staff helped a lot especially Anca & Adrian went out of their way to ease our nerves. They collected baggage on our behalf gave us extra 2hrs free late checkout and generally were very friendly and helpful. If I come Madrid again will only stay at this place. It’s central location so every important place is walkable 1km on both sides of the hotel. Rooms are spacious. Beds are big and soft. Room temperature is well maintained. Bathrooms are adequate with right temperature warm water and good quality accessories. I will write my Madrid blog later but feel free to read my other family travel blog experiences at www emojisarebald com

Great hotel at great price. Just need to do something about the restaurant which is boring and bar area and service needs to be improved.

The staff was helpful and friendly. The location is excellent. To the left is the train station and the museums...to the right are the cathedrals, San Miguel Marketplace and lots of shopping.

A fine hotel for business and leisure. Convienient location if not the most salubrious. Close to Prada also within a few minutes of great tapas.
