NH Madrid Nacional

I was lucky enough to be the ‘customer of the day’ so my room was upgraded to superior from standard and had a fabulous view. Hard to dislike that! And the staff were very helpful and friendly! I’d go back and I’d recommend it!

Location is excellent for visiting the major art galleries and is close to the railway station if you plan to explore beyond Madrid. It is situated in a wide tree-lined boulevard (which is also a busy dual carriageway) but is opposite the Botanical gardens and is a pleasant street to walk along but on the other side rather than the side of the hotel which is a rather scruffy. Wonderful views from the upper floors. We loved our room with a balcony. Bedrooms and bathrooms are good quality and the breakfasts are really fabulous. Worth staying in this hotel just for that.

Only the street outside! There is a large McDonalds to one side and a series of unappealing souvenir and takeaway shops to the other, plus bus stops on the pavement. It's a very busy street and not very attractive at this end but cross over the road and you are in a different world.

Location was great for art museums Terrace off our room was nice Staff helpful

Location was excellent as it's near Atocha Rail station,Prado Museum,Retiro park and convenient to the Metro. Breakfast was good with a wide variety of items to choose from.

Staff seemed to be more efficient that friendly. Questions were answered rather tersely and hurriedly. In house restaurant was only fair with much exaggerated descriptions of the high quality of the food. While the food was OK, it wasn't "the best that you'll find in Madrid". Matress was somewhat lumpy and uncomfortable.

the room is facing the road with heavy traffic it is very noisy.
