This is a 2 star hotel in the middle of Chueca. The rooms are small but the beds are comfy and everything works. The staff are very helpful and there is someone on the front desk through the night to let you in. If you are looking for luxury go elsewhere but for a short stay on a budget this... More

I wouldnt like to try and find this hostel ii i had never been before. We ended up getting a taxi from the airport... More

Small room, but very clean and everything you need with a private bathroom and 24/7 service. Beds were made every day, clean towels every day. Great location; in Chueca, near to the subway and a two minutes walk from the Gran Via. The staff is really nice although they don't speak Englisch, but we understood eachother great. For breakfast; try... More

When we talk about hostels, we think of basic, maybe less than basic accomodation. Sometimes, dirty, nosiy, shared bathrooms, and not very nice places in general. Well, in spain hostels are different, but among the differences, Hostal Hispano (which has been operating for a very long time), is the best choice, not just for location, but also because you will...

At night the concierge sits there and watches tv - you can hear it and him very clearly in the room. You can also hear the... More

The hotel is said to have two stars, to my mind it would deserve three one as well. This hostel is located on the second floor of a classic Madrid-style house, the rooms are extremely clean, each of them has free wifi and TV, towels and shower gel included. Only the bed was way too short (about 1,70 cms), not... More

The hotel is greatly located, only 5 minutes walk to the metro station "Gran Via" and 10 minutes walk from "Plaza del Sol" (the real center of Madrid). Although the exterior might not look very promising (I must admit at first I was disappointed by its look), inside it is the other way around. The rooms are extremely clean and... More

We spent 3 nights in this hostal in the heart of Madrid. The rooms are small and quite basic, just what you would expect in a budget hotel, and it might be a good idea to have ear-plugs handy, as the Chueca area is very busy and noisy especially during the weekend. However, you get good value for your money,... More

2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2004

This hostal operates as an overflow for the Hostal Odesa in the same building. Female couples may consider this to be a confortable gay-friendly option, however the staff is more hostile towards gay male guests. Males will be much more welcome at the nearby Hostal Hispa Domus on Calle de San Bartolome.
