Novotel Madrid Center
Lovely stylish hotel. Very clean, staff helpful and friendly. Advertised a children’s play area but this only seemed to be a corner of chairs in the lobby area.

Barceló Torre de Madrid
The hotel is located in a historic building and it has been updated. But the decour is quite poor. The corridors are dark and the room's furniture are quite simple. The reception lounge is furnished with quite strange sofas and no professional design seems to be involved.
