I have stayed in this hotel more than 20 times in the last 8 years, always for business reason's. This hotel has never disappointed me, as it meets almost all execpations of a business traveller. I would not choose this hotel for family or touristic trip to Madrid.

Positive points : modern hotel, spacious room, good service in the room, excellent restaurant, very nice bar, quiet, 15 min from airport

Points to be improved : very impersonal breakfast room, far from city center (but metro is close by), internet connection never easy (they recently installed wireless connections, but was not working in my room during my last stay),

Good: cleanliness, espacious rooms, in-room wifi, several local cafes nearby, metro station in 5 minutes walk, good value....

Bad: bit far from the centre although metro is nearby.

Stayed here for a business training. Teh room was good, nice bathroom and good bed. Breakfast can be had in the cafe (cheap, basic but okay), or in the huge breakfast room (expensive). Latter is great, lots offered.

Service is great, staff is very helpful. Cafe is nice, friendly staff here as well. Basic food there, but okay. Lunches offered during the training were good.

It's a bit far (20 -30 min by metro) from the centre but in a safe feeling area.

There is a big security problem in the hotel Velada
On July 04 2010, I was robbed in the hall of this hotel in front of tens of people (claimed in police station San Blas-Vicalvaro). I was astonished by danger that I met in your hall and I’ll never come back to your hotel again.
