Madrid - Hotel Preciados Review - 10/06/07 05:20 PM
We recently spent 6 nights at the Hotel Preciados (Metro Callao). It was great. We showed up about 9:30 am and they had a room ready for us in about 45 minutes (well before the 3:00 pm check in time). We stayed in a standard double with a queen bed. It was a decent size room - we did not feel like we were standing on each other. The bathroom was a nice size as well with a powerful shower.
Positives: Big bath towels in the bathroom, free safe, free minibar (juices, sodas, water and beer) that was stocked daily, mechanical window shades that went up and down at the touch of a bedside button (perfect for taking advantage of an afternoon nap - or beating jetlag - or drowning out the late night revelry of La Noche en Blanco), great location (near Opera and Callao metro stops) - walking distance to Gran Via, Puerta del Sol and many other places or generally three metro stops to every where else, front desk staff spoke basic English (but porter and maintenance staff do not) and lovely, modern room decor.
Negatives: None that I can think of....
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would choose this property again.
