This is an excellent place to stay, staff treats you like the most important person in the world. I always regret staying in another hotel (to try them) in madrid, and always appreciate it when I come back to the Barcelo Emperatriz!

The staff has great attention to details. The team at the hotel makes you feel comfortable. The beds are great and the A/C is fantastic (something rare in Europe). Also the location is great with restaurants around the block. Since its a new build building the rooms are reasonable. Ive stayed here maybe 30-40 nights already.

Solebury to Madrid

Beautiful 5star hotel located in ideal location in central Madrid. Easy access to amazing restaurants and high end merch within walking distance. The US embassy is around the corner. Uber access makes traversing the city to the Prado while you can walk to the Archeological Museum. We did not access the restaurant on site. The curbside bell gentleman were excellent. The daily cleaning service was top end. The only negative was during the country wide blackout in which the hotel surprisingly did not run on generator outside of the main lobby and stairwell — the front desk laughed at my daughter when she asked if she could charge one of our phones to enable us to contact our son. I overlooked this and would still rate this hotel a def 5star.

Wonderful hotel. Staying there for the marathon and it was ideal for the start and finish. Well served by metro links to and from the airport, and round the city. We were due to leave on the day of the blackout. The hotel staff were wonderful and really looked after us on what must have been a very difficult situation for them. Highly recommend this hotel for a trip to Madrid.
