NH Abascal

Ich war beruflich hier…
Also ich fand es nicht so toll — das Zimmer war ok, aber sehr klein!
Das Badezimmer sehr groß, luxuriös, aber… und ich wusste das fast vorher…
Das Wasser in der Dusche floss nicht ab… der Kleenex-​Halter war kaputt…
Die Putzfrauen ab 0800 seeehr laut…
Lage und Bar ok!

Beautiful hotel and well located. After ten days in a small apartment in Seville, this was a change we really needed. The rooms are well lit, large and comfortable king bed, and plenty of hot water. Modern furnishings, plus the windows opened. Something you don’t see in US anymore.
Good services, especially our concierge Beatriz. Location is convenient to everything you need by foot in a safe and busy part of town. 30 € fixed price cab to international airport. Takes about 30 minutes or less.

Elegant hotel in Chamberi barrio. My suite was very large with a separate living area and terrace directly on JA avenue. Nespresso machine was a plus, mini bar was expensive, no complimentary water. Good breakfast, the hotel is catering mostly to business travelers. Some rooms are small –interior, but all you need is there and the price is heavily discounted. Staff is very friendly, taxis ²⁴⁄₇ in front of hotel. Area is safe, 15mn from the center. Metro 5 mm walk. The noise (–honking) from the jose Abascal can be a bit of an issue during rush hour.

Another fine experience at an NH Hotel and this time in Madrid. I was really lucky here as I often «play» Priceline’s «name your own price» roulette to find hotel in my various destinations.
This one turned out to be less than 10 minutes walk from the location I was doing business with! It was my first time in Madrid so I used to web to make some enquiries. The hotel is near a subway station and the airport has fast subway service. Therefore I decided to skip a car rental and do it all by subway and by foot and it was a great decision.
The hotel building is spectacular. It is located in a former embassy building that has been nicely renovated. Rooms are clean and nice and the staff is very nice.
The area have plenty of restaurant and shop and you can be in «Puerta del Sol» in 10 minutes by subway for an unforgettable night doing «tapas hopping».
Don’t expect a high end luxury hotel but it is inexpensive and very nice.
