I used to live in Spain and have travelled extensively throughout this most wonderful country, all of Europe, as well as Asia. This hotel is excellent! For the price, you cannot beat it. The breakfasts are wonderful and as far as the location is concerned, it is in "Old Madrid", very close to "la Puerta del Sol". The staff is ...

Perfect Location
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/02/07
We loved this hotel for the location, friendly service, and knowledgeable staff.It is close to several metro stations. We especially liked the friendly staff that was always ready to help us with directions to the different metro stops so we could explore Madrid. I would recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

we will be back

the staff was the best I have ever seen or known we had the best of care, the location was just perfect for our purpose as we wanted to explore madrid on foot which we did and we will come back to do it again.
Transportation including buses, subway, taxi and of course walking to all tourist interests. Many resturants and shopping near by. The Christmas musical played out side the hotel at the nearby department store all afternoon and evening on the hour until 11 PM is tiresome but only lasts about 15 minutes. Good breakfast

We have stayed there twice.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/20/05
The location is wonderful, within walking distance (sometimes long) of almost anywhere we wanted to visit. Clean rooms, although quite small-very friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable rates. We changed rooms, requested a room on the street because the first night we stayed our windows opened onto a the back of a building. The street side rooms ...

Hotel Carlos V - Madrid
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/16/05
Wonderful Location!! Can't be beat.
Elegant Breakfast Room. No Coffee Machines here.
Rooms vary. Only complaint = shower sprays alternating hot/cold water... either your scalded or chilled.
I stayed at the Hotel Carlos V from 02/15/04 to 02/20/04. I have to say that my stay there was excellent. The room was spacious and was well-equipped. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Their buffet breakfast included tasty and mouth-watering ham, cheese, fresh cut fruits, cereal, and frshly squeezed orange juice and othe juices. Also, I ...
Great location and a very good breakfast for the price. We stayed there for a week and took advantage of all Madrid has to offer. The breakfast held us until the lunchtime 'menu del día' and then wandered around the city sampling tapas for dinner. The staff at the front desk is knowledgable about the city and will help you out. Several of the night clerks did not, however, speak much English. All in all, a very good bargain for the money.
