Hostal Cervelo

The location was great; within walking distance to just about everything. Even when we took the metro for convenience we could have walked. The room was clean and efficiently set up, and the balcony was nice. The shower was powerful with immediately hot water and within a fully enclosed stall. We loved the young folks who worked the front desk. They were always cheerful and helpful. The breakfast was good. There's a wonderful soup and salad restaurant right next door that we enjoyed.

Ideally located within walking distance of old Madrid. The room, although small was clean and had the added bonus of a mini fridge and safe. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was efficient and quiet. Although on a fairly busy road, there was no sound with the balcony door closed. There is a shop 2 minutes away that sells bottles of water. It is possible to walk from the train station, but there is a hill to climb in the heat. The breakfast offered a good assortment. Overall good value for money

Location is perfect, in Atocha street, in the center of the city, close to many city attractions like Plaza Mayor, Retiro park, San Miguel mercado, Royal palace, Gran Via, etc. and not too far from Plaza Espanya, everything is in walking distance 15-30 mins. The room was very clean and spacious, even though we had kinder bed in it and we travelled with toddler. There is always someone on the reception, and everyone was very polite and helpful. We asked for child bed and water kettle for our baby and we got it immediately. The breakfast is nice, like in most hotels, nothing special but it was tasty and always fresh. We spent 6 nights in this hotel and were really happy with it. On our last day we could leave our bags in locked room while we were strolling around the city waiting for the ride to the airport.

I go to Madrid frequently and I’ve often walked by the Hostal Cervelo, which is well and centrally located on Calle Atocha. So on this last-minute solo trip I stayed here and it turned out to be great. It’s modestly priced but has everything you need. The rooms are not huge but they’re certainly not tiny, like some hostales, and they are simple but modern and well equipped…good desk, useful closet/drawers, plenty of lighting and outlets for charging, and a nice TV. While it’s on a noisy, busy street, the whole place was quiet and clean, and the staff was super pleasant, efficient and helpful. Wifi was good. And on top of that, the breakfast selection was very good! But there are lots of restaurants and bars in the neighborhood if you want to go out for breakfast, and certainly plenty of choices for the rest of your meals.

The reception’s staff is extremely kind and helpful. Moreover the rooms : for us a double, was ok and the bed very comfortable and the bathroom had all that you need. Then it is located in a very central position, near to Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol. On the other side is near to Parco del Bueno Ritiro , Museo del Prado and Museo Reina Sofia and also to metro station.
