Palacio Central Madrid

Beautiful

Not a typical stop on the camino but nice, clean hotel , easy check in and good value for money.

Nothing

Pablo ( I hope that I got his name right. It was a long day today on the Camino Inglès,) quickly and efficiently got me checked in and squared away. Great first impression. My room also had an extra glass enclosed solarium-sunroom. In the evening it was nice to stand out there and here the rain. I also loved the shutters that block unnecessary outside light when you want to relax. For me, the property had a charm that I seek out while traveling. I also enjoyed the tub=shower combination. Two separate wall mounts for the shower was a nice feature that I haven't had before. Speaking of showers, the water achieves a comfortable temperature very quickly. For the location, I really liked the corner coffee house/pub. I visited twice and the staff there were especially nice, and the espresso was perfect, so stop in and check it out.

The only thing I didn't like was that my visit was just one night. After walking in the area, I wished that I had more time to explore. So many nice options for food and beverages nearby. I wanted to mention Pablo again because I ran into him after a morning walk in the area. He is a great person to have as the first contact a guest has.He made checking in and out so simple, I can't thank him enough.

the place was clean

the placed looked old and gloomy
