Only YOU Hotel Atocha
The staff is what makes this hotel special. From the greeting and helpfulness of the front desk who went out of the way to help us to the kind server at the roof top restaurant, we felt very welcome and cared for at this hotel. We stayed because of the location across the street from the train station. ...

Latroupe Prado
The location is very convenient to the train station, walkable and safe. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was small but comfortable and efficient. The only awkwardness was a bunkbed design that meant I kept bumping my head on the bed above.
