About

Hostal Sol Square Madrid

Hostal Sol Square Madrid occupies the fourth floor of a building on Calle Luis Velez De Guevara, placing you in the thick of the city's historic center. With just 15 rooms, it offers a quieter, more personal alternative to larger hotels, while still providing a lift, 24-hour reception, and secure key-card access. The guesthouse is a 13-minute walk from the Prado National Museum, and several reviews praise the proximity to Atocha train station and the Metro.

The rooms are described as compact but well-kept, with parquet floors and flat-screen TVs. Double rooms can include city-view balconies, and the guesthouse provides extra amenities like a mini-bar, heating, and air conditioning in some units. Breakfast is a recurring highlight in guest feedback, especially the staff's attentiveness to dietary needs, such as bringing fresh vegetables for vegetarian guests. Public baths and a fitness center are also listed among the facilities.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms can be compact — Some guests note that the double rooms are small, which may feel tight for those expecting more space, though the shower is praised.
  • Only 15 rooms — The small scale means limited availability, and the guesthouse may lack the extensive facilities of larger hotels.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the property does not permit animals.
  • Fourth-floor location — Although a lift is available, the guesthouse is on the fourth floor, which might be a minor inconvenience for some, though no guest complaints were noted.

“I spent 4 nights in a Double Room and loved the cozy bed. Breakfast was tasty, and the staff even brought us fresh cucumbers and tomatoes since we're vegetarian. The location couldn't be better, right in the heart of everything, and having a balcony was a nice touch.”
