Hotel Catalonia Las Cortes, Madrid

Great Front Desk staff: Javi, Juan, and Pedro. They all helped us many times during our visit, providing sightseeing recommendations, directions, calling taxies, and restaurant suggestions (especially La Rollerie - for breakfast, lunch or even dinner). I had the crispy chicken thigh tacos twice and they were very tasty. We also ate breakfast there a couple of times and it was excellent. La Rollerie is definitely one of the Madrid gems we found during our staff, and it was Javi that told us there was one only eight minutes walk from the hotel. We liked the beds too. We only had two double beds, not as large as our bed at the Catalonia Magdalenes in Barcelona, but they were were firm and great to sleep on. The rain shower, while not as large as the one in Barcelona was still very good. One thing we really liked was in the afternoon, the hotel had sandwiches, fruit jars, coffee, tea, and pastries which was very classy and nice, especially after a long day walking around Madrid.

The lavatory area was not as great as the setup we had the Catalonia Magdalenes and we didn't have a filter water station in the gym, however, it wasn't a huge issue, as the water in Madrid is very safe to drink.

Clean and beautiful hotel, friendly staff and delicious breakfast. Great location in a quiet place.

Great location! It’s within walking distance of most sightseeing spots and great restaurants, and it offers easy access to public transit. The staff is extremely friendly, and we were so grateful for the early check-in after our long flight. The complimentary afternoon snacks were a great bonus. We also really appreciated that the hotel is tucked away on a very quiet street. It was surprisingly quiet. We’re really happy with our stay. It definitely lived up to our expectations.

Nothing.

Location was perfect and central for our itinerary

Some of the bathroom fittings maybe need a revamp

One of the best hotels we have stayed in for a long while. Well appointed, in a quiet street but in a good central location for historic Madrid. The hotel is very clean and the staff very friendly and helpful. They took particular care to help us with our train reservations to Cordoba. Excellent breakfast. Just up the street is the lively Plaza Santa Ana, with lots of tapas bars and restaurants (including one of Hemingway's favourites). Down the street is a short walk to the galleries at the Prado and Museo Reina Sofia and the Retiro park. This was our first trip to Madrid, and staying at Catalonia las Cortes made it all the better, giving us a great base from which to explore the city.

Central location - exceptionally courteous and helpful staff

Bathrooms and some furnishings looking a bit tired

Beautiful property. Great location. Staff were all super friendly and helpful. We were unexpectedly given an upgrade which was such a nice treat.

Nothing. It was all great.

The staff here was fantastic especially the young man who brought our luggage up! I wish I got his name 🙁. The location was perfect! Just a short walk to everything!

We thought the breakfast a bit pricey but it didn’t matter, there were enough bakeries around to fill our needs.

Very comfortable room and amazing breakfast!

Nothing to dislike!

An outstanding hotel in the heart of the Cortes neighborhood in Madrid and surroundedby dozens of all types of restaurantsand bars. It's conveniently to all the major tourist sites by foot or taxi. The hotel staff was terrific and I really appreciated the snacks put out at 4. The room exceeded expectations.

The breakfast was pricey at 24€ per person. It would have been great to have a gym.

Location close to park and galleries and Plaza Mayor and metro stations, quiet street, comfortable bedroom, chocolates before bed! Snacks between 4-7pm very welcome after long day out and before late dinner. The staff were always helpful and never intrusive.

Beautiful hotel located in the heart of the city. Fantastic breakfast. Loved the afternoon tea and sandwiches. Would stay again.

Nothing to list.

Clean, comfortable rooms in a great location for a reasonable price.

Mainly the location

The biggest problem was the lack of information on the train travel. Because of that, we had to spend more than eight hours at the train e.

Great location with a lot of shops/restaurants nearby. Close to Retiro Park and Prado as well. Easy to find, lively area, convenient to metro station and train station. Staff friendly and helpful. Room was lovely, large, clean and comfortable.

Location was great and the hotel was more upscale that we expected. The lobby is unimpressive, but the facility and our room was very nice.

Everything was as expected or better than expeceted

Central location, beautiful room, comfortable bed, great shower

Nothing it was all great

Address, room, facilities, staff, cleanliness, calmness

All good

Location was great! So close to EVERYTHING but off to the side, not directly in the crowd.

Rooms were too hot. Difficult to work the cooling system.

Yes

No

Just about everything

This is a very nice hotel tucked away in one of the small street in the center of Madrid. Close to many attractions such as e.g Museo Prado, Puerta Sol. Very friendly staff with perfect English if you do not speak Spanish. Excellent breakfast . Rooms are modern but with a little old charm. Bathroom with both dusch and tube. Plus they have happy hour with free snacks

Only negative thing was the AC above the bed which meant that cold air svept down your face while falling to sleep.

Great location, great staff beautiful bathroom. Amazing breakfast!

Location y desajuno

Great location. Staff super helpful. Would recommend to anyone

The customer service was top notch, from the moment you walk in you are welcomed and looked after. The location was excellent, close to restaurants and bars and shops

Everything was perfect

Location, staff, room

Location is excellent with ability to walk around the city and return to the hotel throughout the day if needed, it was a special occasion for us and the hotel surprised us with a room upgrade which was fantastic.

No comment to make here as everything was great and was exactly what we wanted

Perfect location, nice and friendly staff, great breakfast

I stayed for several nights at this hotel. The front desk is very helpful. They always greet you with a smile. They helped me call The Ritz to postpone my afternoon tea reservations because I couldn’t get through to them on my phone. Room was clean. Area is amazing!

The bathroom has no ventilation. My room was small so bathroom activities could be embarrassing. Breakfast was so expensive. My husband was sick during our stay so we couldn’t go out much. It would have been so nice to have just coffee and toast without paying 24 Euro each.

I liked the location. It was within walking distance of many sites and the immediate area was very cool. The room was a good size. I loved how the bedroom had a foyer with a door separating it from the hotel hallway which made it quiet. Coffee and water provided. For free. Towels were nice. Decent water pressure . Good tv.

My room wasn’t thoroughly cleaned when I checked in. The pillows weren’t comfortable. Shower was in a bathtub which was slippery. Would have been nice to have had a bathrobe

The room and locations are the best

I didn't find anything disgusting.

Absolutely everything!! This was my first trip to Spain and as soon as I arrived to my hotel, I knew this would be a great trip! The hotel is beautiful, walls are think, the room was exceptionally clean, the staff was amazing and the location was the absolute best you can hope for! We walked the whole city and all the main sites and there is no other hotel that’s beats this one! Our greatest trip yet!!

There is nothing not to like. I hit the jackpot with this place!

This is a beautiful hotel! You wouldn't know it from the outside, but it is an 18th Century duke's palace and inside is beautiful. But mostly I would like to thank the front desk staff for their thoughtfulness during check-in, and changing our room to one with a shower (instead of a tub), because of my husband's disability, without us even asking for any change. They helped with our luggage, and explained about the building. The hotel has a small friendly bar, where we enjoyed some drinks and met other people, and a snack room with free snacks from 4-6pm. We didn't have the breakfast, a bit overpriced like all nice hotels these days. It is probably very good. The hotel is super-clean, the bed super-comfortable, the bathroom very nice, elevators work well, and I highly recommend this hotel. Location is perfect for exploring the sites in the center. And only a few steps away from Plaza Santa Ana, surrounded by restaurants and bars. And there are many, many other great local restaurants within walking distance.
