So my review is based on my belief of what you should expect from a 4* hotel. The decor is more than dated....not sure which decade peach/pink bathroom suites were in vogue but not any time recently. The rooms came with no fridge, water etc...which I would have expected from the star rating. My biggest issue was that the wall... More

We (couple 60+) loved this hotel. the location is incredible - next to the metro Principe Pio, main train stations, bus station and opposite a big mall where there are cheap eateries, cinemas and shops. a short walk to many of the main sites and near a beautiful park. Yes, the wifi is rather weak in the rooms but on... More

I) PREAMBLE I discovered this hotel during my trip to Madrid in June 2012, while walking along the pedestrian path by the Río Manzanares. This is a very long and charming pedestrian and bike path on each side of the river, which I also discovered that day, although I have been going to Madrid since 1963! When I approached last... More

Have just returned from a 5 night stay in this hotel. Unfortunately I had booked it before I read any reviews and was dreading staying there. However, when we arrived we thought we must be in the wrong hotel! The reception area is large and brightly lit, spotlessly clean. Admittedly the decor in the bedrooms and hallways is a bit... More

I love this hotel. Its location is amazing! Directly across the street from Principe Pio Metro station and mall. A Short (UPHILL) walk to the royal palace. I had a gorgeous view of the back of the royal palace from my window! There are only 2 downfalls to this hotel! First, the WIFI is VERY low signal and really only... More

The Hotel Celuisma Florida Norte is conveniently located near public transportation and directly across from Príncipe Pío shopping mall. It is also very close to the Royal Palace, which can be seen from the street. The breakfast buffet is very good and has a variety of options to choose from. The rooms are clean, and the service is ok, although... More

Room was beautifully clean and kept so by the housekeepers (10 out of 10) Close to shopping centre for wifi and coffee. That (apart from two reasonably helpful desk clerks and the welcoming smile of the breakfast check girl) is it. IGNORE the 4 stars - think tired Youth Hostel. Bare in mind I was in the room for over... More

I was very disappointed at the standard of this supposedly '4 star' hotel. The reception staff were not at all friendly or helpful. I left my room key in at reception one evening and was asked what my problem was! When I hurt my knee and required ice, there was no ice-pack available. Neither was an iron available in the... More

We've stayed here several times and it is a great hotel. Florida Norte is steps away from the Royal Palace gardens, and in the summer its a cool retreat from the city sidewalks. Prinpcipe Pio station is across the street and offers shopping, coffee, beers and subway connections. Two blocks down the street is Casa Mingo (excellent rotisserie chicken.) We... More
