This hotel is well-priced for what it offers - clean and comfortable accommodation. To this, add staff who went out of their way to help with a variety of requests, an excellent location in central Madrid sited within a minute of two metro stations, a free 24-hour tea/coffee kit, quiet - and you have a place we'd stay at again....

We booked 4 nights in a superior room with a terrace at this hotel. The first thing that hit us when we entered our room was the horrible musty smell, it was like unclean carpets. The other thing was how small the room was. We could not open the wardrobe doors properly because the bed was so close , and... More

This smallish hotel was located just a couple of blocks from the Plaza del Sol in Central Madrid. It was within walking distance of the metro, multiple restaurants and cafes, major tourist attractions such as the Prado and the Palacio, as well as Madrid's major department store. The rooms were small, but clean. The bathroom was a comfortable size and... More

Visited this little hotel in the city center. Single room was clean, but suprise suprise, window to inner yard with garbage containers. Breakfast was quite modest but ok, breakfast room and hotel very nice old decorated. Staff was friendly with limited English skills. Price met the quality well.

It´s the third time I´ve stayed at Carlos V. The staff are very friendly, the rooms are clean and it is very centrally located. Some people complain about noise, but what do you expect if you choose a hotel in the middle of Madrid?

stayed recently with wife and kids while on vacation. Location is superb. Everything is within walking distance. However, the location comes with some drawbacks. Rooms / windows are not soundproof, so if you are the type that can not stand street noise, better ask for rooms at the back and not facing the street. I had heard that rooms on... More

I'm rather baffled by the glowing reviews others have given this place. The good points are it's well loacted for tourist sights & our room was clean. The bad points more than outweigh the good. We had a very small room (avoid room 304) with a feeble light well for a window, allowing very little natural light. The view was... More
