Great location! Amazing views on the rooftop bar. Pool is nice but a little small. Staff was amazing and accommodating. The area is central to a lot of recreation and beautiful historical buildings. A bit busy at the hotel but that is to be expected for that area. The room we had with the balcony was perfect for the 2 of us. Loved the bathroom. Breafast was great too.

I loved this hotel! Loved the room! Loved the morning breakfast! Loved the staff; very patient and accommodating. Loved the atmosphere. My room was always immaculate and well stocked with necessities. The only one thing I was unhappy with was the pool; great look but too small. Couldn't swim. But I would give the RIU 9/10

This is a landmark property in Madrid, so it was a unique experience in that sense. It's been thoroughly modernized, and the thick outside windows do an incredible job of keeping the street noise completely out. It is a huge facility, so the breakfast buffet was the equivalent length of a football field, though distributed in multiple stations, so all the options seemed close. The quality of the food was also first rate, and everything was freshly cooke (no pans of tepid eggs sitting under a hot light for hours). On the othe other hand, the size of the pool was not commensurate to the number of people around it. The views, though, were spectacular. Also, if we hadn't had to catch an early flight, we definitely would have spent some night time in the beautiful 27th story terrace (definitely a dress up venue). We dod a quick walk through, and it was impressive.
