My family of 18 stayed at The Thompson Hotel during the week after Christmas, and everything about our stay was perfect. The hotel is absolutely beautify, with modern, comfortable rooms which are nicely appointed. The staff is exceptional, providing all the services you would expect from a 5 star hotel always with a smile. Alvaro at the front desk specifically stood out at check-in, but he was one of many that made our stay perfect. And to top it off, the hotel’s location could not be more central to many of the most visited sites in Madrid— Puerta del Sol and Gran Via are literally steps away. The hotel is pricey but well worth the splurge. We will be back.
