Guest Reviews
- Matheus (10/5): - O local é muito bem localizado, perto da gran vía e de vários lugares. O hotel fica localizado no terceiro andar. Apesar de simples, é muito confortável e estava muito limpo, só tinha um cheiro um pouco estranho no banheiro, mas de resto tudo maravilhoso. Recomendamos muito. Fizemos a reserva pelo hoteis.com e deu tudo certo, estávamos receosos, mas chegando lá só informamos o nome e apresentamos os documentos que fizeram o check-in, estava tudo quitado. Eles guardam as malas após o check-out por 5 euros.
- George (10/5): - This was our favorite little hotel/hostel we've stayed in Europe! Ok sized bathroom, comfortable bed, 6th floor up old wooden stairs. But the whole place has a cute, quarky interior. And by far, the cleanest place we've every stayed. The stairs and hallways were mopped every day! Rooms the cleanest, and we had a private bathroom. Great location, so many restaurants in every direction. Highly recommend!!! A+
- Henrique Luciano (10/5): Bom Hotel - Bom Hotel, única coisa que não possui elevador e a escada para subir é ruim estão se estiver de malas vai sofrer um pouco.
- Giovanna (10/5): - La calidez de sus dueños es lo más bonito, siempre dispuestos a ayudarte. Está muy cerca de dos estaciones del metro y
- Anthony (10/5): - Enjoyable stay that this friendly hostel, close to Gran Via metro, eating places and 10 mins walk to Plaza Sol
- Diana (6/5): Ubicación buena - El hotel está muy bien ubicado; pero hay demasiadas gradas para subir y no hay aire acondicionado
- Diana (6/5): Puede mejorar - El hotel está perfectamente bien ubicado pero el estado del edificio donde se encuentra es muy viejo; además hay que subir muchas gradas sin elevador. No hay aire acondicionado y Madrid en verano era un infierno.
- SADIEL (2/5): - Un hotel sin asensor y subir maletas hasta la habitacion por una escalera estrecha..
- Jennifer (2/5): - Bedroom very tiny, no air condition, no basic or essential supplies for your stay! I just bring a carryon and backpack and it was so exhausted to get up to the 6 floor! No elevator only Stairs and not even a good condition! Walkable, restaurant, stores at very walkable distances!
- Michelle (6/5): Adequate accomodation for a short stay - We choose this hostal because it is centrally located and pretty good on the price. What we were ot expecting was having to climb 4 huge flights of stairs to our attic room which was huge but very oldy woldy. Everything worked well the wifi was ok, the bathroom was adequate and the beds comfortable and the sheets clean. The area is very central and bang smack in the Gay Centre of Madrid.
- Jessica (10/5): - Safe, very clean, central, and a good area to stay when in Madrid.
- maria (8/5): - Ubicación muy buena. Lo malo es que hay que subir como cuatro pisos por escalera y la habitación nuestra, que era cuádruple , era como una guardilla y tenía los techos muy bajos. Nos dimos más de un cabezazo. Pero limpia y con aire acondicionado.
- Glen (2/5): - ★☆☆☆☆ Horrible, suffocating attic room – avoid at all costs! This was genuinely one of the worst hostel experiences I’ve ever had. My room was in the attic, with no reachable or openable windows, and it felt like being trapped in an oven. There was no ventilation, just a weak little fan doing absolutely nothing against the sweltering heat. It was impossible to sleep — I actually told the staff, “You can’t sleep here,” and she just smiled knowingly, like she’d heard it all before and didn’t care. This place is a health hazard in summer. If you’re expecting even basic comfort, do not stay here. The attic rooms should not be rented out to anyone, ever. I left exhausted, angry, and sleep-deprived.
- Andrew (6/5): - Location is very central to transport and attractions in Madrid, and eating places nearby. The lack of air conditioning however is a big negative in a warm city like Madrid.
- Rafael (4/5): - El hotel y la ahbotación bastante normal. Tiraron ropa que dejé en la habitación y no hay forma de recuperarla.
- Luis (10/5): - Muy buena estancia en Madrid , tener en cuenta que el hostal está en 4to piso y no hay ascensor personal muy atento, caminando a 5 minutos de la gran vía , cerca de bares, restaurantes
- John (10/5): - The location was great and the staff was helpful and friendly. The room was great.
- Sofia (10/5): - Hostal Dolcevita was an amazing experience. It was clean, the staff was super responsive, and we had a great view of the city. For the price, it is well worth it. I’d go again in a heartbeat.
- Israel (2/5): Si vas con maletas es terrible - No cuenta con elevador tercer piso y la habitación huele mal
- Ernesto (10/5): - Super clean rooms, excellent location close to Grand Vía and others interesting places. Staff super nice and polite.Thank you Dolce Vita
- anita (10/5): Utmerket - Fint opphold.
- Rene (10/5): - Muy limpio el personal con muy m
- Wagner (10/5): Excelente. Funcionarios atenciosos e muito limpo - Adoramos a hospedagem. Tudo muito limpo e organizado. Tem geladeira e micro-ondas de uso coletivo. Ajuda muito. O único problema é que para chegar na hospedagem são três andares se escada. Mas para quem não tiver problemas de mobilidade vale muito a pena
- KOSUKE (8/5): 便利な立地 - 建物は古くエレベーターはないが部屋は改装されていて綺麗でした。 ソルやマヨール広場にも歩いて行ける距離でとても良いです。
- Soany (6/5): - The place was good just so many stairs and the hostal never said that they doesn’t have lift or was at last floor (4th)
- Galvez Cruz (8/5): - Excelente todo el servicio y habitacion, únicamente que el estado de las escaleras es terrible y más al subir con equipaje. Diría que es hasta peligroso, pero por todo lo demás es excelente.
- Jose Geraldo (2/5): Horrivel - Horrivel. Fora da real.
- Ben (10/5): - Clean and centrally located, everything you could hope for if you’d like a private room and bath, in a clean and secure building. The ancient stairway to the upper floors is charming for visitors to Madrid.
- Dimitrina (10/5): Habitación en pleno centro de Madrid - La ubicación es céntrica, la habitación pequeña, pero con baño y aseo. Cómoda, con calefacción, buena relación calidad precio.
- Gary (10/5): - Riktigt bra och prisvärd
- marcos (8/5): - Buen equilibrio en calidad precio
- Carlos Norberto (10/5): Un acierto en Carnavales - Excelente, habitación cómoda en un lugar céntrico de Madrid.
- Chelsea (8/5): - Shower was tiny and the room had a window that looked out into the hall way … but otherwise accommodations were decent, the bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space for me/my stuff. For being a hostel it was actually a pretty good deal for the price/location. I would book here again.
- Mariola (8/5): - Es un sitio estupendo para hospedarse.
- Marcelo (10/5): - Localização perfeita e possui 2 janelas antiruidos o que é otimo pois e silencioso mesmo estando num bairro de agitação
- Angel (8/5): - Felt like I was in a dorm or staying at a family member’s home. It was cozy and clean. It was a little loud because of the restaurants nearby but wasn’t too bad. Location is perfect!! Would stay here again.
- shashank (8/5): - Quiet and clean place but the stairs is a problem of 3 floors, rest everything was good.
- Hari (10/5): - a parte de tener que subir tres pisos de gradas para entrar al hotel, todo bien
- Carmen amaro (8/5): - Okay
- Verified traveler (6/5): Mediocre - The hotel is at the top of a building with VERY uneven stairs; the worst I have ever known anywhere. Only some of the rooms have aircon. I thought mine did, but it didn't. I did have a very noisy ceiling fan all night (30°- 40° heat) and my room was under the roof itself so cooked in the day. Be careful what room you choose, especially in the summer. It was torture.
- Kim (8/5): Nice budget hotel - This is a budget hotel on the fourth floor without an elevator and without airconditioning on a busy street. That aside it's nicely done up with friendly staff and I enjoyed my stay in a room facing the courtyard. Madrid had a rare cold snap in late June so I survived without AC
- Josiah (10/5): Good base on a budget - Decent stay for the price. If you’re looking for a budget place to stay while visiting Madrid this is a good option. Hostal is up a few flights of stairs so if you have issues with walking or climbing, may not be the place for you. Place is fairly old and the bathroom seems to be a recent addition, but it is a plus having one vs. sharing one in other sections of the hostal. No AC, but the the overhead fan worked and kept us cool in the heat. Walkable to everything. Overall, not the fanciest place but was a good stay to set base for our trip to Madrid.
- Ana María (8/5): - Repetiré
- Alexandra (10/5): - N
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Terrible! Deberían de avisar que no hay escaleras para las maletas Amanecí llena de ronchas y quiero pensar que no fueron pulgas
- Shannon (8/5): - We loved how central we were while staying at Hostal Dolcevita. The staff were super friendly, and everything was neat and clean. If you are looking for a budget stay in Madrid (think one step above hostel), you would probably enjoy staying here. Be warned though, you will be climbing quite a few stairs to get there!
- Beatrice-Diana (10/5): - Bezauberndes Familien Zimmer in einem sehr lebhaften und buntem Stadtteil.
- Leandro (4/5): - Es un piso muy muy antiguo sin ascensor, muy mal para personas mayores y demás
- Hector (10/5): - I liked how the staff were available 24 hours
- Luca (10/5): - Struttura carina e pulita. Logisticamente perfetta per visitare la città a piedi. La stanza spaziosa è molto pulita. Bagno ampio e confortevole, solo il lavandino un po’ piccolo. Se devo trovare un neo è nella mancanza di colazione, ma sono molte le strutture dello stesso tipo che non la offrono. Insomma la consiglio, ma attenzione se avete problemi di mobilità evitatela in quanto per accedere bisogna salire tre piani a piedi.
- Carlos Norberto (10/5): Totalmente recomendable - Estancia super tranquila. El alojamiento muy limpio y daba gusto usar las instalaciones. Ideal para un viaje en solitario o pareja de pocos días. Personal amable y siempre atento a lo que necesites. Un acierto haber pasado la noche aquí.
- Constantino (8/5): - Muy Buena ubicación
- Daniel (8/5): - Helpful staff nearly always available. Very clean and beds made for us each day. On one early morning the lock jammed shut n the only toilets/shower available, with no one inside, and it took time for us to realise that no one was inside; so the facilities were out of use for an hour. However once the reception was staffed the staff sorted out the problem very quickly. Overall this was a very good place to stay, exceptionally convenient, and I would strongly recommend it.
- Cathrin GRILL (8/5): - Parfait en centre ville pour un court sejour.
- Marie (10/5): - Friendly people.
- Kristian (6/5): Good value for money - Completely ok room for the price. The door to the balcony was not possible to close properly so a lot of sound from bars outside came in. I spent miminal time at this hostel
- Alessandro (8/5): - Hotel situato al centro di Madrid a due passi dalla gran via,camere pulite e silenziose, bagno un pò piccolo.
- Carmen (2/5): - No puedo puntuar no pudimos viajar por problemas de salud, intentamos cambiar la reserva de día pero fue imposible. un saludo
- Carlos alberto (10/5): - Excelente la atención muy amables, solo que esas escaleras no están en muy buen estado del resto todo muy bueno
- Sergio (6/5): - Buono, tipico Hostal, posizione centrale per visitare la citta
- Öykü (10/5): - Çok merkezi, çalışanlar güzel yüzlü ve ortam oldukça temizdi. Biz çok memnun kaldık.
- Silvia (10/5): - .
- Placida (10/5): Súper valor/precio! Muy bien ubicado. - Todo limpio, súper servicio. Volveremos!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - El sitio céntrico y buena limpieza.Decoracion de habitaciones un poco basta. Lo malo es que no tiene ascensor .Y nos cobraron por dejar las maletas el último día hasta que nos fuéramos al aeropuerto.
- sandra (8/5): - The hostal is really clean and very quite. The only thing is that if you have heavy luggage is really hard to reach it is on the 4/5 floor without lift.
- Philip (10/5): Location - Extremely well located, close by Gran Via and very quiet room. Congratulations to your staff, very helpful and friendly. Only drawback was it was on the third floor and no elevator- so you get your cardio workout! But overall excellent!
- Alison (4/5): - Nothing special. A beautiful old building but not all that well looked after. A most unfriendly welcome, reckoned we were never booked in there & tried to overcharge. We have to go back to N.Z. in Dec & go through BANK STATEMENTS to prove we had paid & bow much. Are you able to check for us & get the refund please? We have always found Expedia great, but certainly not this time. We found much more accom. 5min walk away at half the price . Certainly would Not recommend it to anyone. Alison Woodcock
- Jose Alfonso (2/5): - I had canceled the booked because I am 65 years and I can not climb the large statue of the hostal The hostal is on the 4 floor no elevator I lost my money
- Luca (10/5): - really nice room n good place to stay
- Marta (8/5): - Clean and good staf but very difficult accessibility, 84 steps for access to room No elevator, this hostal is expensive considering is not good for all people
- Michael (10/5): - It was very nice people were very nice and it was very centralized. Everything within walk distance
- Fidel (8/5): Very nice place - Lovely place, all clean, friendly staff and perfect central location
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great three days in Madrid - The stay was nice and pleasant. Great location just two blocks away from Gran Vía. The only inconvenience was the lack of an elevator, the stairs were a bit uncomfortable. Not a big deal for me but it was for my 67 years old mother. Aside from that, I would recommend it. It’s right for the price.
- Tommie (8/5): - Well, I liked the quaint element of the hostal. Its like being in a piece of history or a reminder of it. Not a modern, plush place but classic with a few, modern touches. NO bedbugs, mice or any other crawlers. I'm thrilled with that. No Air Conditioning Unit but a high ceiling fan was in the room and working if needed. They serve basic foods for a free, continental breakfast. I like that the small, dining room is set for all the guests who eat, dine together. Its like a community of sorts. The downside is that there are no elevators so one would have to walk to the hotel's 4th floor location but I was fine with that. Overall, im satisfied with my stay. The price was right. I felt at home and would stay there again.
- Elena (10/5): Pleasant stay - Happy with that place. Great area with lots of restaurants around. Breakfast was pretty good. Friendly and helpful receptionists. Pleasant stay.
- Rosemary (10/5): Arty party trip topper! - La Dolce Vita is a lovely place to stay - vibrant, funky and great location. Tasty self-serve breakfast with rocket fuel coffee. Lovely secret roof terrace away from the bustle and steps from Plaza Paulo Zerolo with cafes and bars, performers from breakfast to late night cocktails - but all closes at 130am to aid a restful sleep! Highly recommend!!
- Damon (10/5): Fantastic little place to stay - I had a really good time in Madrid and the room provided everything it needed to: a good location and a place to sleep at night. The breakfast was a little limited but that was a minor inconvenience. There's a bit of a climb up the stairs to get there so maybe don't book if you have a pram/you are not very mobile.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The location was great, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the place extremely clean. The only downside was the 4th floor walkup and my room was right next to the bathroom and you can hear everything, water pipes, etc.
- Andrew (4/5): - The no lift access the poor level of assistance there’s no assistance from airport to hotel A Myth. There’s no breakfast A Myth.
- Logeswari (10/5): Good, clean hostel with breakfast - Location was excellent as was the service. The only problem was we had to carry our suitcases up 3 steep flight of stairs.
- Nicholas (8/5): Good value for money - Caution: there is no lift and it’s in the 3rd floor (that’s the fourth if your American). Nice enough for a hostel; en suite bath which was nice. It’s in the heart of the gayborhood, so lots of people out at night. It’s walking distance from the Art Museum Triangle, but be sure to use a maps app - Madrid is a maze and it’s easy to get turned around. Friendly staff, but elles no hablar Ingles, so polish up your espanol. Small room but had a ceiling fan. Breakfast included, but it’s minimal. No coffee/tea in the room.
- Kay (8/5): - While it was a long climb up several sets of stairs the cost and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff outweighed this drawback considering the very economical cost. The location was close to several attractions and the area was very interesting. It was also close to public transport and the airport bus stop.
- Jose (10/5): Nice place to stay - Everything was great. Especially the people who work there. Very friendly and helpful
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Poor service from reception when we were trying to check in, was brushed off and treated rudely when trying to drop bags off before room was ready. Room remained not ready when we returned at the time the reception told us to come back. Toilet in room was not working. Decent WiFi.
- Georgios (10/5): Good deal - Central location, good breakfast and wifi. Friendly staff. Nice price
- Verified traveler (8/5): Pleasent - Gabriela was very nice. The room was clean. The only bad thing is that their is no elevator, you have to go uo the stairs and it had 87 steps and the steps need to be update, they were old, its and old building. Other than that very nice place.
- Philip (10/5): Excellent value - Very central location with easy access to the metro or walking to some of the major sites. Very good breakfast and helpful staff. The worn staircase of 3 flights is a hassle with heavy luggage. That was the only issue with the hotel.
- Sudeep Anaokar (10/5): Nice place. Worth recommending to friends. - Breakfast was good. Location is excellent. Staff are very courteous. Cleanliness is remarkable.
- Paul (8/5): Good value for your money - Very friendly and helpful staff ; room are spacious and clean ; breakfast is healthy and filling ; in walking distance from major attractions . The only thing that bothered me was lack of elevator .
- eric (10/5): Great value - Great place to crash in madrid. My tiny cozy room had it alll, tv, desk, little balcony, 2 blocks from gran via. Great plus was the breakfast. Jose @ front desk was super welcoming
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice, quirky, quiet in a very lively area - I really liked this place and the staff. I didn't much like the breakfast, the coffee ran out and I had to wait for more to be made. This may seem picky but I need coffee before I can talk so that made me grumpy. Also some cheese or ham would have been nice as there was a lot of sweet food. I don't really like sweet things for breakfast.
- eq (8/5): Fantastic choice! - Super central place, clean, friendly staff...definitely a place to come back and to recommend!
- James (10/5): - It was fine;welcoming and comfortable. The situation was great for what I wanted as I could walk to the art galleries I wanted to see from the hotel. The area was full of character with plenty of cafes and bars and lovely squares. Very enjoyable.
- Anthony (10/5): Great room in downtown Madrid - Great room! The location is perfect, the room is a little cocoon. The breakfast was simple but we definitely enjoyed it
- Balmira (8/5): Great Location & Professionally Run - It's on the top floor of the building. No lift so if you're older and have heavy luggage it's not that easy to carry everything up the very old and worn stairs. Breakfast is served late - starting at 8:30 which means if you're leaving early you miss out. My own room was very small but did have it's own bathroom and a window for air and sunlight.
- Raj (8/5): Friendly, Cozy and Convenient - The staff was really friendly, Language was not an issue, the breakfast was good and the location is bang in the middle of the city which makes it perfect if you are planning to visit Madrid (2min walk from Chueca and 5min from Sol Metro station). You do however have to climb up a flight of stairs as the building doesn't have an elevator and you are not allowed guests inside your room. Overall a nice friendly and convenient place to live in, in the happening part of town.
- Louise (10/5): A comfortable retreat when first moved to Madrid - The place had all the amenities necessary and basic comforts for a few good nights sleep. I arrived alone, having just moved to Madrid, and the staff were extremely friendly, in particular Jose - who took pity on me, and is now a friend! If you're more of a home-comforts kind of person and are willing to make the effort to immerse yourself, you will have a lovely time. Breakfast is also nice too, if not a little awkward sat around a table with many people of different nationalities - not knowing which language to speak, but it is plentiful and the coffee is thick, hot and strong - just how I like it! If you ask, everything can be accommodated for you with a smile :)
- Francis (6/5): - No elevator, carrying luggage upstairs is difficult. Staircase are worn out and dangerous. Room is okay.
- Raveer (10/5): Great location, quirky room, brilliant service! - Lovely quirky accommodation, with great service and a good filling breakfast in a really central location, with awesome views from two balcony's in our room, all for a very reasonable price! 21/03/17
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good value hotel within easy distance of museums, central Madrid and tourist sites. A bit of a hike up the stairs but nothing too strenuous.
