Disliked: Amenities
Location is amazing, right on Gran Via. For $300 a night, everything was average. Breakfast buffet was had everything but nothing had any taste - nothing. Room was average, very few amenities. One day, housekeeping forgot to replace the complimentary water and said they could send a bottle for 7 euros - no thanks. Called for extra towels - those didn't arrive either. If I was paying $150 a night, I would understand but not $300 for 2 rooms!

Absolutely loved Hotel Riu! Parking was pricey but being in a central location having an amazing variety of a breakfast buffet made up for it! Staff is amazing, incredibly nice and helpful with all of the recommendations and would help on the easiest way to get around madrid! My view to my room was not great but overall I would give it a 10/10!!!!! Madrid me encanto!!!

The location is great, breakfast amazing, friendly staff, and very clean. Our only suggestion is that there should be an exclusive section for customers on the 360 rooftop, it was always too crowded on the sunset time which unable us to enjoy and take pictures.

Good location, but…
The hotel is very well located, for Metro, taxi, walking to Plaza España, shops, restaurants. It has a great view from the 26 Sky bar terrace Now, the inconveniences are the following: not friendly welcome, everyone is stress out., no help with the luggage, and the worst was that the heating was set for very hot and we couldn’t change it. We call reception and an ingeniero that told us the solution was to leave the windows and door open, not a good solution, we kept calling for the matter and were ignored, if you want to control your a/c or your heating, this is not the hotel for you
