Great, big hotel next to Movistar Arena and Retiro park
Pros:

Big hotel within walking distance to Movistar Arena (we were there for a concert). The staff is excellent, everyone very helpful and kind. The hotel is massive and usually filled up with different conferences and summits. This didn’t bother us at all, as our room was quiet . We had a room with terrace on the 6 floor, really big and well supplied with different ammenities.

Cons:

There was a persisten smell of tobacco when we entered the room, staff was lovely and offered to change the room. However we opened the doors to the terrace and it was fine within a couple of hours.

O cazare plăcută
Pros:

Locația este foarte bună, iar hotelul curat și primitor, cu paturi bune. Recomand locația pentru un city break scurt.

Cons:

La 4 stele ne-ar fi prins bine niște papuci de casă sau șlapi, geamuri care să izoleze mai bine zgomotul de afară, iar mobila e puțin desuetă. Poate nu ar fi rău să fie măcar recondiționate unele piese de mobilier.

Flott hotell, dårlig vanntrykk
Pros:

Super beliggenhet. Bra område. Nært konsertarena, butikker, Retiroparken, og cafeer

Cons:

Flott dusj med regnfall og hånddusj, men null vanntrykk. Tok evigheter å dusje siden det nesten ikke rant. Var slik alle 3 dagene vi var der, morgen og kveld.
