What guests think

Senator Barajas is a convenient airport hotel in a quiet residential area, popular for short stopovers, with generally clean, basic rooms, helpful staff, and easy access to the metro and the airport.

Breakfast earns frequent praise, and several on-site restaurants and a pub make meals easy. Common frustrations include dated decor, thin walls and corridor noise, and air conditioning that often fails to cool or is seasonally limited. The airport shuttle is useful but has fees, a one-bag rule and limited schedules, and parking is frequently scarce around the hotel. Overall, expect a practical, no-frills stay focused on airport convenience.

Excellent location if you have s morning flight. One remark. They could consider keeping the pool open til 22:00 instead of 20:00. When people work, they will not arrive in time to use the pool before 20:00. A shame especially in hot weather to close the pool at 20h00 just because it requires a guardian.

It's a practical hotel, near the airport. It shows its age. And unfortunately, the pool (beautiful to look at) didn't open till 11 am - too late for me to catch my flight. Pool hours should be posted when you make a booking. The shuttle costs 5 Euros if you didn't book your stay with them directly - something they don't share. But it's still a convenient amenity.

This was our second time staying at this hotel and for the location, it is a good choice. The breakfast is good and the staff very friendly. 10 min walk to the nearest metro station. Our only issue was carried over from the first stay where we had to change rooms due to the overwhelming sewer smell coming from the bathroom pipes, this stay it was still noticeable but not bad enough to need a room change. We also may have been next to a smoking room as the smell entered the bathroom strongly. We also found that the bed and pillows were not very comfortable and it was difficult to maintain a comfortable temperature in the room, we slept with the patio door open to cool down.

I have used this hotel many times over many years and twice this week, one over night stay then staying with the group i booked, I noticed the balcony door was open when i arrived, closed it and went down to meet the group for dinner in the Hotel, after dinner i went back to my room and the smell was pretty smelly, but being tired and having to be up early to catch my flight i thought it would be ok. I ended getting up at 4am feeling pretty sick with the smell of sewage in the room, i had to open the balcony sliding door and go back to bed... now i know why the door was open when i arrived. I met one of my customers as we had the same flight time in the morning and he said his room was the same as he was 2 doors along from me on the 3rd floor.

El Senator Barajas Hotel es una opción funcional y económica cerca del aeropuerto de Madrid. Es un hotel básico, ideal para pasar la noche sin lujos. Considerando los precios de los hoteles en España, la relación costo-beneficio es muy buena. Aunque está cerca del aeropuerto, necesitarás un Uber o el servicio de traslado del hotel para llegar. En cuanto a la limpieza, las toallas están un poco desgastadas y la alfombra de los pasillos está deteriorada. Sería una buena inversión que el hotel las reemplazara. El restaurante del hotel es excelente. Destaca por su atención rápida y atenta, y sus platillos son deliciosos y abundantes.

The bed was against the wall, which was weird. The worst part about the stay was the AC was on at 15 degrees Celsius as it was hot in the room (even for January) and it was blowing out heat. It got so hot in our room in the middle of the night. I had to shut it off and open the sliding glass door. On good note, we used their airport shuttle service, they have lots of food choices from the restaurants and the bathroom was nice. My sesame seed salmon was delicious!

Based on one experience. Great check in, I always speak some Spanish but the staff spoke English well. The room and hotel itself is dated, the walls of the room are pretty thin as we could hear people talking and “Activities”, and the rooms are basic in nature. We stayed for only one night as we had an early flight, and wanted to wake up later as the drive is under 10 minutes vs 30 minutes if coming from central Madrid. The hotel served its purpose well. Check out was a breeze and the taxi was ordered as requested noting the night before at check in my request was written in a log which immediately made me relax as they had a system to assure the taxis com as requested. Very happy with that. Worth it if you want to get up later and have a short trip to the airport.

I got to the hotel with two customers from the UK, i was told there was no rooms booked for us, i showed the receptionist my booking, and he said there was no booking for me, asked me to send the details to him on the phone as he didn't have any booking and the hotel was full with no rooms available. We has to wait half an hour trying to proof i had 3 rooms booked for my clients and myself. Really embarrassing for myself even though i could show the booking and it was paid for through Hotels.com. In the end the receptionist got a call from head office to say they had found my booking after he had called them I have used Hotels.com many times and on many trips, but no more, was terrible to be left standing for so long with my customers, i have also used this hotel over many years, i will leave a review on the Hotel website when i get a chance, and not use Hotels.com again.

My sister and I chose this hotel because it was close to the Madrid Airport & it had an Airport Shuttle! Don’t be fooled into staying here for a free Airport Shuttle!! You are allowed only 1 piece of luggage with NO exceptions! One of the front desk clerks, a man was extremely rude to us! We wanted to find the closest underground stop to go to the city & he explained it by saying ‘ go left, left, right, right & then left!! When we looked confused by those very poor directions he was mean to us!! We couldn’t wait to leave this hotel and will never stay there again!!
