Very pleasant stay in that well located hotel

THE place to be in Madrid, especially on the roof top, for the mood, the sunset and, more geneally speaking, for the view! Located close to many "must see" places, this hotel and all the staff know how to make the guests comfortable. Thanks a lot for the time we've spent at the RIU Plaza!

Trung, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great location, dated rooms.

The hotel is in a great location (very central) with spacious rooms and good breakfast! However, rooms are older, corridors look dated with slow lift service, room doesn't come with too many amenities and for the price, you could probably find better value. Access to the roof is great, but it can be so crowded with other tourists not staying at the hotel as well.

The hotel is located at Gran Via next to plaza España. Amazing location to walk around. Lots of places to eat. Hotel has a rooftop bar and as hotel guests you get preference in seating. Overall, loved the hotel.

Tracy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a great hotel. Location is wonderful. We were very pleased with our stay and breakfast. I only have a suggestion: Please prepare the sofa bed before guests enter the room. Making a sofa bed is not convenient, especially after a long overseas trip.

Amazing high end hotel in central location.

This hotel is very centrally located in Madrid within walking distance to all the tourist locations. We stayed in a Junior Suite with amazing views from our balcony on the 10th floor. The room was amazing, large, comfortable with all the luxuries you'd expect. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was great with a huge choice and even mimosa's, lovely touch. The rooftop bar is a must visit with great food, breathtaking views across the city and a glass walkways for those brave enough.
