Hostal El Pilar

Great city centre location, friendly check-in staff, 24 hr reception / check-in facilities. Clean functional rooms with sufficient space & en-suite facilities, including good hot powerful shower. Excellent wi-fi throughout the hotel.

Great basic accommodation. Clean bedding,great airconditioning. Situated in the heart of Sol area, minute walk to metro. Staff all friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended.

The place is spotless and at an excellent location. It's quite literally off the Plaza del Sol (which has a subway station and a commuter train station). The lady at the front desk was super nice, which is honestly refreshing as Spaniards have a very different idea of customer service in comparison to what we have in the US. Back to the hostel, the room is quaint and clean, the wifi works (although I didn't test the speed I was watching netflix to fight the jetlag at 4 AM). The rooms are small but don't expect anything different for the price and location. Definitely would stay here again for a day or two. I was staying in a private bedroom with bathroom.

Hotel is okay. The pros are great location, price and cleanliness. But this isn’t a fancy hotel so don’t expect too much.

I was spending just one night in Madrid and would only be sleeping in my hotel. So, I wanted something inexpensive, convenient and clean. It was under $50 and all of those. But the walls are paper thin so I could hear conversations word for word and the tv’s picture was only acceptable. But again, it was the right price, very clean and there was no noise at night while I slept.
