Ramada by Wyndham Madrid Tres Cantos

Ramada by Wyndham Madrid Tres Cantos

8/10 Good
"We had a comfortable stay in a very spacious corner room. Location is just a 5 minute walk from the Tres Cantos train station which offers a 25 minute journey into Central Madrid so was very convenient for us. I paid for one of the underground parking spaces but would have been fine parking in one of the spaces outside so was a bit of a waste of money really. Helpful staff on reception made up for the slightly lacklustre feel of the hotel. It just felt like it needed a bit of a spruce up. Good value for money."

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed at Hotel Aravaca while visiting Madrid for work, and it was a great choice. The location was ideal for getting to the office, which made the working days much easier and meant less time spent travelling. The room was pleasant and spotlessly clean, and I was very grateful for the big bed after a long day at work. Breakfast was lovely, and a good start to each day, and the staff were helpful and friendly throughout my stay. As I was there on business, I didn't get the chance to explore the hotel's facilities, so I can't comment on those. But if you're looking for a well-located, clean place to stay in this part of Madrid, I'd happily recommend it and would definitely stay again."
