Mattress was uncomfortable. It does not match a great hotel such as the Emperador. Same goes for lack of light in the bathroom area. As for the rest, this hotel is a beautiful, well loccated property with an excellent staff.

A little noisy at night from sirens from emergency services but then our room did overlook the main road. However, all the staff we encountered were most polite and helpful. A very good buffet breakfast. As we booked thru Expedia our room was upgraded. The rooftop pool/ sunbathing area was excellent with far reaching views of Madrid. A good stay.
