My main purpose for visiting Madrid was to go to the museums. The Prado Museum is very close—just across the main road. Many tourist attractions are within walking distance.
There are local restaurants, cafés, and shops nearby. I went to DIA every day to buy food.

Perfect location and reasonably quiet for where it is. I've stayed here many times, on a different floor each time. Though the rooms are always quite different, I can rely on having the same comfortable beds, absorbent towels, and general cleanliness. Staff friendly. I think it's just me, but I always have trouble using the key to get into the building. Once I'm in, the floor and room keys don't give me any trouble. Just the key on the street is tricky, and I don't have the finesse necessary.

Nice and clean room with good heating and all we needed for two nights. Great location close to everything but not too crowded area. Old building with thin walls so noises from doors, upstairs neighbours and people waking up and down the wooden stairs can be heard and can bother a bit but at night we were so tired that we slept ok. Some noise from the street during the afternoon as we were facing the front and at street level but at night it was fine.

Bruna right next to Prado - clean and friendly

Bruna is a convenient guesthouse that's perfect for monumental visits in Madrid - it is located on a rather quiet alley and a 5-min walk from Padro but it is slightly far from Sol (hustle bustle eateries and clubs), about a 15-min walk. The check-in was easy and very friendly; it's a family-run place and we appreciated their smiles. No refrigerator in the room but the small balcony was perfect for this purpose in December; bedding and bathroom were very clean - good value for the money.

Hostal needs to be improved to meet the quality ex

Other than its location, the hostal is not entitled to the prices I paid. It means that their room rates are
over-rated. In details, I think 20 - 30 % reductions from their current rates sounds reasonable. In Spain the hostal is hotel equivalent, which is different from hostels (youth hostels) or pensions. What I experience this time from Bruna is that they are youth hostel or pension grade at the over-rated room charges.

Best for Spanish Speakers

I LOVED the location of this hotel. Right by the Prado and a great area for hanging out after 8pm (the real party never starts till 10pm though). Only one of the owners speaks English (barely), so if you don't speak Spanish, you may find that to be an issue. I was freezing cold in the room, so an extra set of bedding wouldn't have hurt. I stayed in two locations, the 2nd one (not where the reception is) was nicer. Both were very clean. Both were VERY basic.

great basic hotel in a fantastic location!

it's so nice to find a place that is clean and comfortable that is inexpensive! furnishings are basic and that's good for me if it saves me money. it's maybe a 10 min walk from atocha train station and something like 2 min's from the prado. within a 15 min walk or less you can reach much of central madrid.

there was really only one thing i didn't like...very odd...instead of 2 pillows on the double bed there was 1 really long pillow! i normall put 2 pillows behind me to read in bed and couldn't do that. i was on my own but if i'd been with someone i don't think i'd want to share a pillow! i was only there 1 night so this was a minor negative.

the cafe/restaurant across the street, la plateria, is warm and friendly with a great ambiance. in late november there were heaters at the pavement tables and the 2 dining areas inside were convivial and appealing. i only had a slice or tortilla to go (which was good) so can't really comment on the food but i'll looking forward to returning the next time i'm in madrid.

on the whole i consider hostal bruna a great find!!!

The room was typical size for a Madrid hostal. Although a small room, it still had a double bed, a desk and chair, and a wardrobe/closet with safe. The bathroom was small, but it had a toilet, sink and small tub with handheld shower attachment. Thus, the room had everything needed. The only negative was that even with both windows open, there was no airflow - and since it was a hot weekend, it was not as comfortable for sleeping as one would expect. Otherwise, a satisfactory place to stay - especially when Madrid was crowded with visitors for the final day of the Vuelta a Espana (the 21 day cycling race that follows the Tour de France).

This is a nice, family owned older residential in downtown Madrid. The Police Station across the street made one feel secure but all the street parking in the area is reserved for police cars. We parked in the Empark underground parking a 10 minute walk away. The hotel is nice and the location is excellent for walking to historical sites. The older \"staff\" don't speak English but understood my poor Spanish. The younger staff (son?) spoke fluent English. I'd recommend this place.
