“Disappointing”

The best

Stayed for 2 nights in a premium club room. The room is spacious but definitely shows its age. There is significant wear and tear throughout. There is a nespresso machine but no kettle. I tried to make a cup of tea and the only hot water available was from the coffee machine which tasted of coffee. There is no mini bar. The room was very dark, with 2 windows facing a wall. It was quite depressing. It was the worse room I have ever had in any IC hotel. Breakfast had a nice spread and was nice apart from drinks and lack of service. The only coffee available throughout the hotel was from a nespresso machine. To me, a hotel that does not even have the option of proper coffee cannot be considered 5 stars. Teas were not great either in the restaurant but they did have lovely teas in the lounge. There was plenty of staff in the restaurant but was difficult to get anyone’s attention. It took over 15 minutes to be able to order a coffee on the first day. We also had to move tables as the table we were shown to had crumbs on it. Staff is however very friendly. Overall, very disappointing. I am very loyal to IC but I would actually stay elsewhere when in Madrid. I did mention I was disappointed with the room at check out and they acknowledged it’s not great. Why give it to a loyal guest in the first place?

“Beautiful building...but maybe not a beautiful stay!”

The best

The Intercontinental is an impressive building...modelled on an a centuries-old palace on the site. Its public rooms are very comfortable and elegant. The design however puts the restaurant and the bar on a floor midway between Floor ) and Floor 1, and you have to make your way up some steps...there is no elevator stop in the main elevators. A small private elevator is available. We enjoyed our times in the bar area, listening to the musicians play - especially a wonderful pianist! But we were given one of the smallest rooms we've ever had - about 10 feet wide and skinny all the way down through the bath area. One suitcase support was supplied, and the onther suitcase had to go on the floor - there was not enough room for another support...The shower was very difficult to manage. There was one table with one plain workchair. That was it!! It was described as a Classic Room - Queen Bed....NOT anything like the pictures on the website! Take care with your reservation...and maybe conside one or more of the nearby hotels and just go to the Intercontinental for a drink or brunch!

“Couple traveling Spain seeing the world .”

The best

Great location close to restaurants and shopping. Staff was professional yet friendly and the hotel was kept beautifully clean. Breakfast was my favorite meal, wide selection and a young woman named Deyanira from Peru made sure that our coffee cups were never empty and kept us with anything we may have wanted from the kitchen. We felt very welcome during a time when many Americans were unsure of traveling and if visiting Madrid again we would definitely stay at this hotel with these wonderful people again.
