The room was small but adequate and appeared to be a fairly recent renovation. The sound proofing between units could be better. You're very aware of voices and sounds from other units. At least this light sleeper was.

The location was very convenient and you can walk to all the major attractions. The room was very clean and probably due to renovation was done relatively recently from what I have read in the review. The staff were kind and very helpful. A couple of things… I wish entrance was more visible. Four other people and myself ended up trying to figure out how to get in. We eventually got buzzed in. I opted for a room without a view but I think I will pay bit more to get a room facing outside.

Just a crappy hotel for way too much money. I know $200 a night isn’t anything crazy but this place was pretty bad. We weren’t even allowed to use the air conditioner because it isn’t made yet even though the room was hot. One pillow per bed. No coffee maker. Just crappy.

Staff is very nice and helpful. They gave me good recommendations about places to eat and visit. Location of hotel is excellent: Opera metro station just a few steps away and you just need to walk 5 blocks to get to the Plaza El Sol and Plaza Mayor. Hostal Oriente offers a very basic furniture setup.

It was very clean and the staff were very nice. I had a room on a courtyard and did not hear the busy plaza outside. The hostal gives onto the Opera and is 5 minutes from the Royal Palace and its galleries. It is right in front of the metro. Ideal for visiting Madrid.

Loud

Small, clean, efficient rooms. If there were controls for the room temperature, we could not find them. It is very, very loud with human noise by day and truck noise by night, so we had to keep the windows closed, even though it was stifling. Upon our arrival, we rang a doorbell and were buzzed into a dark, unmarked hallway. After fumbling for several minutes through apps and messages to look for any instructions they may have been sent, we discovered a check-in table in a hallway several flights up. It would have been very helpful had they come to greet and guide us.

EL Hostal está ubicado en una zona cercana a todo (Palacio Real, Puerta del Sol, Gran vía, etc.) y a metros de la estación Opera del Metro, con lo cual tiene fácil acceso a otras zonas de la ciudad por este medio. Además, tiene acceso a una veriedad de lugares tanto para comer como para realizar compras. Respecto al Hostal, personal muy amable y siempre dispuesto, habitación no muy amplia pero con todo lo necesario e impecablemente limpia todos los días. Estuvimos 5 días con mi esposa y quedamos muy conformes. Seguramente volveremos.

Great location and value for money

We stayed at Hostal Oriente for 3 nights and we really liked it. The location was fantastic, in walking distance of everything to see in Madrid. The value for money was also excellent in comparison to other local hotels. The staff were very friendly and approachable, they asked us if we needed recommendations and answered any questions we had about our stay. Overall, we’d definitely recommend.

Our second floor room looked out onto the square that is in front of the Madrid Opera House, and between that and the hostal is the Opera metro entrance. Madrid is a beautiful, bustling city and Hostal Oriente is an ideal location from which to explore it. We could see and hear Madrid’s liveliness from our little balcony but that’s part of the attractiveness of vacationing in a city. Cities might rarely sleep but we slept soundly with our very comfortable double kingsize and the aircon on. The Royal Palace or the Plaza Mayor are a short walk away, as are great places to eat, shop or just sit and relax with a coffee. There was also the convenience of a coffee machine on our floor for the €1 a time caffeine shot if you wanted one on waking. We’ll be going back to Madrid, and I’m sure we’ll be looking to see if the Hostal Oriente is available to have us stay again when we do.
