It cannot be denied that the location is about the best in Madrid; Close to Plaza Mayor, The Real Plaza, The Opera house if you`re looking to treat yourself, and walks in and around Madrid, and if you`re looking for a no frills hotel then this could be the place for you.

If you like just a bit of luxury keep looking unless you can insist upon room 407 or 107. 407 is probably the best room in the hotel and is offered to you as a placator if you have had the misfortune to be given room 401 for a night. We did and didn`t even unpack our
clothes as we were leaving if they couldn`t give us anything better.

The breakfast room is a tiny room in the basement, it serves it`s purpose but if you fancy a dining room, then hereagain, this place is not for you.

The young ladies at the reception desk really do try to accommodate you and they cannot be faulted - they are doing the best they can with the limited resources in the hotel.

I booked this hotel after looking for several hours on the internet, and reading so many reviews that it was so late and I just thought "Oh just get it done" - I wish I had stayed up a bit longer and found somewhere a bit smarter but eventually we made the most of it.

Bear this in mind, along with all the other comments, - there were a lot more that we had looked at and this was quite expensive by comparison to some - i.e. we paid £520 Euros for 4 nights, with nothing from the mini bar because there wasn`t one in the first room that we had, and neither was there one single drawer in any of the 3 rooms that we were eventually given on various nights. Room 107 is a family room on the front with a king sized bed and bunk beds folded back into the wall. Room 407 is a king sized bed with a tiny balcony on the front. Insist on it or nothing !
It has the only guest lounge in the world where there are three bicycles standing there, for what, I asked myself, and the business centre is just off that room, with one easy chair and two computers.

“good location - clean hotel”

Very good central location. The rooms were fairly small but clean and tidy.

Staff were helpful. They booked us a taxi to the airport and helped us with directions etc.

couldn't really fault the place. It was good value for the amount we paid.

“Avoid at all costs!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2009

people found this review helpful

Booked a two-night weekend stay at a rate of 117 euros room only per night as a break in the middle of a two-week business trip around Europe. I had booked and was confirmed a double for sole use away from the elevator. Arrived (with a colleague also staying there) and was checked into the smallest, hottest room next to the lift. the room is the one in the last photo above - bunk beds. What that photo does not show you is that the bed above is inches way from your face when folded up and is just an accident waiting to happen. Only a single sheet on the bed and one flat pillow.

I went to see my colleague to find they had been allocated a large double for sole use. I went to complain at reception and ask for a room move but they said they were full and would move me the next day. After much haggling, they also reduced my room rate a little. Next day, I had apparaently left it too late to request a room move and so they could not do anything.

I refused to pay for that horrible room again. I demanded a move to another hotel at the same rate but they refused to help. In tact, the receptionist, Pedro, was rude and very unhelpful and was muttering and smirking throughout my entire discussion with him. I eventually spoke to the Manager by telephone who agreed to find me another hotel (begrudgingly). I was moved to the Cliper around the corner which was much nicer and had more polite staff as well.

I would never use this hotel again. I agree with other comment about the glass bathroom door that does not lock, the grafitti all over the outside of the building and the "shady" characters around at night. Take my advice and stay somewhere where your custom will be appreciated because the staff at the Tres Cruces certainly don't value you!

“Small Hotel, expensive to stay, graffiti”

Booked this hotel with Xcapewithus.com at £291 for 3 nights, when confirming the booking by phone direct to the hotel, the day before we were due to arrive, we were informed that our reservation had been cancelled by Xcapewithus.com, who apparently had gone bust, we received no notification from them. The hotel then told me they had no rooms left, then I was asked if I had paid in full to Xcapewithus, I said no, he then, surprise surprise found us a room, at a cost of £425, decided against it, glad we did, Hotel not situated in a nice area, it looks small and pokey and there is graffiti on the walls outside .

“Fantastic modern hotel in a central location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 March 2009
1
person found this review helpful

After a disastrous experience with a hotsal I had originally booked, I stumbled across this hotel through lastminute.com. This is a High Tech hotel which is a chain of modern, business hotels located at various points across the city and at either 3 or 4 star.

It was fantastic! The staff on reception were friendly, helpful and spoke a good level of English. The rooms whilst small, were spotlessly clean, modern in decor with a fantastic massage shower all at a very reasonable price. There is even a small restaurant serving breakfast and it provides free internet should you need it.

This particular hotel is centrally located just off Gran Via (close to the metro) and is within walking distance to many attractions, bars and restaurants. I would highly recommend it.
