This is a great place for the young at heart. The management communicated well ahead of time, so we were prepared for the stairs--and they did help with the luggage! The room was smaller than we expected, but as we only needed to rest and shower there, it worked well for us. The staff were congenial and helpful. The only hiccup was with the coupon for the complimentary breakfast; we were unaware of it until time to pay for our meal, so we ended up paying the regular price.

Artistic B&B was great! It was in a lovely location, the rooms were clean and beautiful, and the staff were super welcoming and helpful. There were a lot of stairs, as mentioned, but they did not bother us!

I am sure this was disclosed ahead of time, but I had expected a more traditional B&B service. The B&B service is purchasing an 8 euro pass for breakfast at a local cafe.

The room was small and not the two beds we ordered. The breakfast is not on site and was not available for our departure at 7am . Despite this no reduction in price. The rooms are on the 3rd floor of an old building. There is no elevator and at night the stairs are not lit l are dark and hazardous. Overall…don’t stay here. Way to epexensuve for what you get and difficult to find and navigate. AVOID!

Staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and well-equipped. The stairs will definitely help you get in shape! The area is wonderful - so many bars, restaurants, shops, museums, etc. It's easy to walk to just about anything you'd want to see in Madrid, and for the things more than a couple miles away, there's a metro stop super close by.

Location is excellent. The food vouchers for breakfast were a nice feature. Now for the bad: There was a periodic vibrating noise from pipes that interfered with sleeping and a 4 story walk up was annoying. Also, roof above hallway was held up with temporary support beams. Security was questionable as door from street, from floor, and individual room
all used same code. I wondered if all the rooms on property were accessible via same code. Therefore we didn't leave anything valuable in the room. Price of 300 US per night for a small room with old bed and 2 extra cots seemed much. Matresses were uncomfortable. With all of the above problems, I loved the location and was happy with my stay in Madrid. In future, I would opt for a true hotel.

On the 4th floor of a walk-up, so pack lightly....very lightly! The young gent that checked me in was kind enough to help me bring up me bag. More of a hostel than a hotel. There is a very small bedroom with a small closet, mini-fridge and a bed. Walls are thin so they ask that you keep all noise down with good reason. There is a common area with vending machine that doesn't always work. This is a good place if you are in your early 20s and need a place to crash while visiting Madrid. The selling point for this B&B (minus the breakfast actually) is the location. You are a stone's throw from bars, restaurants, meet & cheese shops, pastries, clubs, outdoor dining, music, etc. Stay here if you have good cardio and do not plan to stay in your room much.

This place is unique and in an incredible location. It's close to all the major sites, including the Prado. There are dozens of bars and restaurants right near the hotel.

However, they do not serve breakfast. The nice young lady who was present during the day (no one was there at night) seemed surprised when I asked about breakfast. She pointed to the vending machine.

And the STAIRS! Oh my gosh! It was a struggle for me for sure. There is no elevator and though I knew that when I booked, there were four long flights up with my suitcase to get to my room. The walls were paper thin and I could hear everything in the bathroom next to my room. Everything.

I recently visited this lovely place in Madrid that, despite being small, was extremely clean, friendly, and conveniently located. This establishment truly impressed me with its attention to cleanliness. Every corner was impeccably maintained, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.

One of the most appreciated features of this small yet delightful place in Madrid was the much-needed air conditioning, especially during the hot summer.

The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly. As soon as I walked in, I was warmly greeted and provided with all the information I needed. Their kindness added a personal touch to the experience, and I genuinely appreciated their warm and professional attitude.

The location was really convenient. Situated in the heart of Madrid, this place was easily accessible and close to many tourist attractions. It allowed me to move around the city effortlessly and fully enjoy my stay.

This place was a hidden gem in Madrid. The spotless cleanliness, friendly staff, and perfect location make it a must-visit for anyone seeking a comfortable and enjoyable stay in this beautiful city. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning on my next visit to Madrid.

Lots of character and charm. As other reviewers mentioned climbing the three flights of stairs can be a bit much after walking all day in the city and lights in hallway don’t stay on consistently when climbing stairs, which would help not to fall. I think it was the second floor light that was out…not sure. The only thing that made me rate three stars was that the doors to some of the rooms won’t close without slamming them, which ended up being along me up a lot during the first night and following morning of my stay while I was trying to sleep. This seems like it cools be an easy fix to increase customer quality of life while staying a try is property. Also, another improvement could be an outlet on the room that was clnveneient to charge phone. The only ones I could find had lamps and such already plugged into them and were behind furniture. Other than that, all good! Walkable and cute place.

Great location, within walking distance to many of the must-see sites. Communication was prompt and staff were super helpful and kind. They even found us a place to stay for an extended night when they didn’t have a vacant room and we were considering extending our stay in Madrid. Mind you, this is just a room among several on a single floor inside a multi-floor apartment. The room was very cute and tastefully decorated. There is a “common area” where you can buy water and drinks from a vending machine. Also the sofa bed is really for a child (which served our purpose just fine). The balcony door opens all the way to let fresh air in, which we really enjoyed. There are lots of trucks going in and out on this street though, so there was some noise in the wee hours of morning. The bathroom was very clean and pleasant with shampoo etc, including a hair dryer. Oh and there are absolutely fabulous cafes and bakeries nearby. This was a perfect place for a short stay. Thanks to the hosts!

Not a B&B

Location wise you can't beat it, close to the big galleries, surrounded by bars and restaurants, and not too far away from the heart of the city. There's a metro a couple of blocks away, which with a couple of changes gets you to and from the airport.
The décor is great, as can be seen in all the photos and the bed was lovely and comfortable. However, I think only two rooms have a view of the street, so make sure you can get those if possible.
Then there's the stairs, we were prepared, but they're still a tough climb after a a day exploring Madrid!
Finally, it's no longer a B&B, if you want breakfast you buy a voucher from the staff and go off to one of a couple of cafe's for your breakfast. We found we were better off to just go and find our own breakfast, there's no shortage of places nearby and many were cheaper than the voucher.

property was very convenient to two metro stops (red line & light blue line). Always felt very safe. Doors are coded - front door, main door to the B&B, and to the room.
Room was mopped daily & fresh towels were also provided daily.
Wooden stairs were a chore at first, but by day 3 we were pros. There are light switches as you go up, they are timed, so if it goes off just turn them back on. Also, the gentleman at the front desk was super very helpful bringing up my luggage and helped us with luggage at check out as well.

(Recommend the Brown Bear Bakery just down the road.) No elevator - steep stairs with no handrail going up to reception and rooms. Stairwell is very dark- there is a light switch on the right as you enter. The room itself was adequate. For 1 person it would be good. There were 2 of us with a dbl bed. Space was cramped.

Fantastic location at a very reasonable price. Rooms were clean and comfortable and staff was friendly and helpful.

Habitación para 4 personas.

Estuvimos solo un par de días, pero nos fuimos contentas. A pesar de ser un 3° sin ascensor y tener las típicas escaleras desiguales de los edificios antiguos de Madrid tiene buena accesibilidad.La decoración es bonita y muy diferente, el único pero que le podemos poner es que la habitación nos pareció demasiado pequeña para 4 personas, se notaba que era una habitación adaptada para una cama doble y como mucho una individual, pero no dos. El baño también era un poquito pequeño pero muy bonito, la decoración preciosa.
Teniamos incluído el desayuno, y tienen un convenio con una cafetería en la que puedes elegir entre 4 menús, todos muy completos.

The best service , the best location. Minutes away from everything ( that is walking). Shopping , museums, parks and restaurants. Highly recommended. There is three flights of stairs no elevator. I personally like walking so that didn’t bother me at all. But someone in poor health might have a problem carrying suitcases upstairs. Oh and the price is great too.

A really great place to stay, very super cute rooms and very clean. The owner is super friendly, knows the city well, gave us great recommendations. Great location, near the museums, and main things to see in Madrid center. The only minor thing, no elevator, a little hard to go up with your luggage.

Beautiful authentic Spanish decorated room with great staff. Only downsides were thin walls, I heard someone snoring next door. The door to my bathroom scraped the bottom of the floor which made it difficult to open and shut however I was notified of this when I arrived. The main door lock was very hard to use for the first couple of days but then it was fixed. Overall great stay, most issues were discussed/fixed by staff. I can tell they are committed to giving a great stay for you. Would absolutely recommend.

Great find

The hotel (not a bib, maybe after covid) has an excellent location and is only abt a 5 min walk to any of the “big 3” Madrid museums.
There are lots of unexpected and nice small amenities, rare for a budget hotel.
The room was quite comfortable and at least the night I stayed, quiet.
It is easy to see the host, Alvaro, loves his job, and he does it quite well. He was bubbling over with tips and information. Communication was almost immediate.

This is a great place to stay, hosts are very helpful and breakfast is excellent. There are quite a lot of stairs up to the apartments, so I would not recommend this place for older people, this that have mobility issues or this traveling with a lot of luggage. Location is great and easy walking to everything

Alvaro and his wife were amazing hosts! He was very helpful with directions to the hotel from the airport and gave us all kinds of advice on what to do while we were in Madrid. Both of them were extremely friendly and I felt like we talked with them for hours as if we were already family! Anyone going to Madrid should stay with them!

This adorable place is in the perfect location in Madrid, and even better because it is not too noisy. The hospitality is excellent and you feel like a guest in somebody's home. The rooms and main area are clean and cozy and safe. There are also a dozen great restaurants just a few steps away. Great for couples and solo travelers.

Pleasant stay in central Madrid

Perfect location right in the centre of Madrid, ideal for a short break. Very hospitable hosts who speak good English. Rooms are small and simple but well presented contributing to a pleasant stay. Good breakfast in the morning. Overall, excellent value for money and would stay again.

The staff is what makes this B&B. They are friendly, helpful and multi-lingual. The directions from the airport were so easy to follow and cost saving over a taxi. Breakfast was so varied every day but always delicious. The only down item is the 3rd floor and no elevator. After a long day of touring that was a long climb, as it was with luggage the 1st day. Still it was worth it

This was such a great stay! A little smal boutique-like hotel run by a husband and wife. Alvaro was the greatest! He was very attentive and basically catered to whatever was needed. A wonderful location not far from the Plaza Major and the Prado. Basically in the middle of both locales. And the actual rooms are great! It’s almost like you’re staying in an old apartment like the ones you see pictured in post cards. Highly recommend this place to stay in Madrid!

Great find!

Paloa and May are great. Nothing was too much trouble. The B&B is about 5 Minutes walk to the Prado and Thyseen Bornemisza museums. I was a lone travelling but joined other guests at breakfast which was lovely.

Whilst there is three flights of stairs and no lift, it was not a problem.

The photos are a true representation of what you will get.

I stayed in the mirror room.

Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic location, wonderful people, and no need for the gym after going up the stairs! My room was clean and cozy and the most quiet location of the many I spent in my time in Spain. Loved the thoughtful little note I got with my breakfast as I dashed out the door to catch my flight! Really wish I could have spent more time at Artistic B&B!!

Charming Hosts, Charming Stay!

Paola and May were lovely hosts!! We really enjoyed our conversations with them over breakfast and they were so accommodating about arrival time and leaving our luggage there after we checked out. The decor was so unique too and we appreciated being able to walk to many places, including the Prado and the palace (10 or 20 min walk, respectively).
