Positives:
We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights in April 2019, during our trip to Madrid, Spain.
- The hotel is located in a area very close to the main headquarters of the most important companies situated in Tres Cantos: GlaxoSmithkline, IBM, Serono, Sener, Danone, Sogecable, BDF Nivea, BP Solar, EADS, Software AG, Siemens, Deimos, Crisa. The hotel is also next to some industrial and Financial areas. So it’s a good option for a Business Trip.
- Free Wifi was provided.
- Madrid hotels are very expensive. So people tend to stay in such hotels away from city centre, even though you have to spend around 30-45 minutes in train to reach the main city.
Negatives:
- Its very far from the city center. You will have to walk around 500 m+ from the hotel to the railway station and from here you will have take a 30 minutes Train to reach the city center.
- The breakfast provided was very basic (I understand that its Holiday inn Express type of hotel).
- You don’t find much restaurants nearby. So lunch and Dinner options becomes difficult.
- If what you are looking for is a hotel where you can spend a substantial part of your holiday, this is not your hotel. This one can be best described as a fantastic base to do your sleeping and having breakfast while spending most of your time out and about in the city.
- There is no facility like a Gym or a Swimming Pool (as it’s belongs to a IHG Express Category)
