Fabulous staff in this hotel
Pros:

We’ve travelled the world, but never had such wonderful service before . From the front of house, to house keeping everything was fantastic. But the person who stood out especially was Deyanira Rojas in the club lounge. She was so pleasant, helped with all our needs and even helped us with advice on where to catch the metro and suggestions for dinner. I honestly would come back purely because of her service.

Very nice👌🏼
Pros:

I had a great stay at the InterContinental Madrid and would definitely return.

The location is excellent—very convenient for exploring the city while still offering a calm and refined atmosphere. As an IHG Platinum member, I truly appreciated the outstanding recognition: I received a fantastic upgrade to a terrace room as well as a late check-out, which made the stay even more enjoyable.

While the room itself is a bit dated, it was very clean and comfortable, so it didn’t detract from the overall experience. The breakfast was supernice with a good selection, and the staff throughout the hotel were exceptionally kind and attentive.

Overall, a highly recommended hotel with great service and a warm, welcoming feel. I look forward to coming back.

Excellent service and breakfast
Pros:

Our tour group came here for three nights - quite a nice hotel with excellent service. We slept very well, but our room, number 211, turned out to be immediately next to one of the lift shafts … complete with clunking cables as the lift goes up and down. Overall, the clunking was an amusement rather than a disturbance.
Very good breakfast.

Las recepcionistas y el personal de cafetería y desayuno fueron absolutamente encantadores. El desayuno también merece mención, uno de los mejores que he visto.

No pudieron darnos habitaciones contiguas a mis hijos y a nosotros.
