About

Hostal El Brezo

Hostal El Brezo is a compact guesthouse on the third floor of a building on Calle de Princesa, in Madrid's Moncloa-Aravaca district. With just seven rooms, it offers a quieter alternative to larger hotels, while keeping you well connected: Argüelles underground station is a few steps away, and the Prado National Museum is about a 10-minute drive.

Rooms are modern and practical, with parquet floors, flat-screen TVs, air conditioning and heating, plus free toiletries. Some rooms add a balcony or city view, and all include a coffee machine. Housekeeping runs daily, and the small scale means the staff tend to know their guests.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Genuinely helpful staff — Guests repeatedly mention the friendly, attentive team who answer questions, resolve concerns and make you feel at home.
  • A step from Argüelles metro — The entrance is a few steps from the underground station, making the Prado and the rest of the city easy to reach without a car.
  • Modern, quiet rooms — Soundproofing, air conditioning and stylish decor come up again and again, with several guests noting a good night's sleep.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Compact rooms — Most guests find the rooms small but well organised – fine for a city break, less so if you plan to spend a lot of time indoors.
  • No pets allowed — The guesthouse does not accept animals, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you travel with a pet.
  • Third-floor walk-up — The property is on the third floor of a building – there is a lift, but if you book, know that you're in a residential block rather than a standalone hotel.
