Hotels in Madrid, Spain

Public transportation is a very useful way to get around in Madrid. The best way to travel is the Metro, which is both affordable and easy to navigate. The lines extend from the airport all the way to the southern areas of the city, which makes it easy to make trips into the city center. You can also find many buses with routes around Madrid. If you stay at a hotel in Madrid’s Salamanca neighborhood, you’ll be walking distance to many attractions, and you’ll be in a great location to access Metro lines 2, 4, and 6, which will take you to other parts of the city. Another accessible neighborhood is Ciudad Lineal. You can access this area with Metro lines 2 and 5.

If you want an upscale stay in an exclusive atmosphere, then Salamanca is the neighborhood to stay in. Madrid hotels in this area afford you walking distance to some of the most high-end fashion boutiques and world-famous shopping. Hotels in this area include Velazquez 45 by Pillow and Novotel Madrid Center. If you’re looking for a historic neighborhood, take a look at one of the oldest neighborhoods in Madrid—La Latina. Here, you’ll be able to walk to local tapas bars, as well as the San Isidro Museum. Find cheap hotels in Madrid’s central area—el Centro—where you’ll also have easy access to affordable transportation that can take you around the city.

One of the most famous attractions in Madrid is, hands down, the Museo del Prado, the premier art museum in Spain. The museum is located right between the Centro (main city center) and the El Retiro area. The Prado has one of the best art collections in Europe, including famous works by Goya and Velazquez. In the El Retiro neighborhood, you’ll find the popular El Parque del Buen Retiro (or "El Retiro"), the park from which the area gets its name. El Retiro is a meeting point for locals and visitors alike and is renowned for its architectural grandeur as well as its beautiful gardens and lawns.

Book hotels in Madrid’s Chueca neighborhood if you’re looking for a vibrant neighborhood filled with bars and restaurants. This area is popular with visitors who want to experience the best of the city’s nightlife. In this area, you find everything from sushi bars to local cuisine. Stay at Hostal Corazon de Madrid or Hotel Atlantico Madrid and you’ll be within walking distance of the bars and restaurants. You can reach this neighborhood using Metro line 5. Cheap hotels in Madrid’s Malasaña neighborhood, just west of Chueca, are ideal for proximity to hip restaurants and bars while affording a calmer atmosphere. If you want a more laid-back vibe, we recommend Malasaña, which you can reach via Metro line 10. In Malasaña, try a stay at Hostal CC Malasaña or Hostal Era Alonso Martinez. If you’re interested in local food, then a trip to Calle de la Cava Baja is a must. This street in the La Latina neighborhood, with a stop on Metro line 5, is lined with cozy tapas restaurants that serve an abundance of traditional food.

Plan your trip to Madrid around some of the most popular annual events in the city. Many visitors from all over the world are drawn to Madrid in June to take part in the Pride celebration. The festivities are primarily focused around the Chueca neighborhood on Metro line 5. In August, you can catch the popular La Paloma festival that takes place in the La Latina area. You can also reach this event on Metro line 5. The festival offers live music, dancing, parades, and food and drinks. Every September, Madrid also celebrates La Noche en blanco, which is a night of fiesta when the entire city stays awake to celebrate art and culture until sunrise.
