What guests think

Hotel Europa earns praise for its unbeatable Puerta del Sol location, friendly staff, and generally clean, comfortable rooms, while recurring notes flag lively street noise, occasional dated or small rooms, and sporadic maintenance or seasonal A/C controls affecting comfort.

Many guests find the on-site cafe and breakfast convenient and decent, though several consider breakfast limited or overpriced. The pedestrian-only setting means taxis cannot reach the door and parking is off-site, but metro and sights are steps away. Overall, expect a lively, central base ideal for sightseeing rather than a quiet, amenity-rich retreat.

The AC didn’t work, I had to leave the balcony door open and that resulted in lack of sleep since it is quite noisy outside. The bathroom smelled a bit like sewer. The location and restaurant was fantastic, but they need to let their guests use the AC, even when it’s cold outside, Puerta Del Sol is very busy and the clock is a bit loud and sounding off every hour, good thing I brought some Nyquil.

You should suggest in your website that guests that are driving or renting a car should park in the Plaza del Carmen parking garage for easier accessibility to your hotel.

The property is excellent. The only negative is that taxis are not able to reach it because the city has turned the entire area into a pedestrian zone. Very inconvenient for disabled people.

FYI- cars cannot drive to this hotel. It is approximately 1/2 mile from the drop off location to the hotel so if you are traveling with a mobility limited person this may be a challenge. Otherwise it was a great hotel and customer service.

Our room was spotless, it had a renovated bathroom and bedroom, both which were a little larger than we’d expected from the photos. Our balcony on the 3rd floor overlooked the side street and down into the Puerta del Sol. The windows were soundproofed, though being right in such a busy area we could still hear some of the noise outside, I had no trouble sleeping through it though. The buffet breakfast (€15pp) was good. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We would be very glad to stay here again in the future. Great property in a great location.

Rooms

Rooms vary: many are comfortable with renovated bathrooms, balconies, and great plaza views, but some are small or dated and Wi‑Fi can be unreliable. Exterior rooms face late-night plaza noise; interior rooms are much quieter.

Stayed three nights at the end of a Camino walk. The location was excellent; steps from the commuter train stop, walking distance to major and less major attractions. The room was clean, large and comfortable. We initially were assigned an interior room, but on request were given a room with view of the plaza, busy and probably a bit noisier, but good windows/balcony doors kept the noise down to a reasonable level.

Room ok for a 3 star hotel. Second night half the towels and bedding has been taken but not replaced. However biggest issue was noise from the street and plaza. Noise all night so sleep almost impossible. No way is it a quiet hotel as advertised. Make sure you don't get a room overlooking plaza or street

We had a good stay with our two teens. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Hotel is right in the city centre. Everything is walking distance. Perfect location for a short trip. Can be bit noisy at night until late morning. They have got double glazed windows to block the sound. If you are a light sleeper then skip this place. Only thing is the condition of the hotel is bit outdated. Although we had a newly built room the bathroom was very dark and dingy. Family room is quite big. Definitely recommend for the location it is situated.

Fantastic location and easily walkable to many sites. Active area, but great soundproofing in the rooms. They were doing some maintenance/touchup while we were there so had to navigate around paint and ladders, etc. But overall the staff was very nice and accommodating, and held our baggage when we arrived early. Attached Restaurant/Cafe was very convenient for coffee in the morning and drink/tapas in the evening. My room had a few unsightly dings and scratches but overall was very clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this property, especially for the reasonable price and great location.

Ideal location, and beautiful hotel with comfortable, clean rooms and great service. Nice restaurant with great food and wine. Conveniently located at Plaza Mayor in the heart of Madrid. Rooms are very soundproof, considering the noisy location. If you want a quiet night of sleep, get an interior facing room. Rooms overlooking the plaza have a nice view, but are noisier throughout the whole night because the city never sleeps. However, this hotel does a much better job of soundproofing with thicker walls and windows than other hotels in the area. Service is impeccable and everything is well appointed. The bathroom, especially is spacious with an updated shower that has consistent hot water and excellent water pressure. Nice bath products too.

The property is in a convenient location to walk to shops/restaurants. The staff are friendly However, the room is in the 60s and the free WiFi did not work in the room(only in the lobby). The sound insulation is minimal so you will hear the sound from other rooms as well as from the window.

Me gusto la localidad y el Personal del Hotel. Me disgusto el trato recibido en el cafe (exterior) del hotel. Cenamos (Esposa, Hija y yo) y mi hija quizo tomar un postre de una heladeria del frente. Lo compre pero el moso no permitio que ella lo consumiera con nosotros en la mesa. Tuve que terminar la cena e irme para que ella pudiera disfrutar del helado con nosotros. Me parecio increible la forma y manera de administrar dicha Politica con huespedes del hotel que estan consumiento en sus facilidades. Fue verdaderamente desepcionantes. Deben readiestrar al personal en ese aspecto.

The treatment from the staff alone deserves a 6 stars. They were so welcoming and escorted us to the room; helped with our bags; and even carried the bag for us to the Main Street, in order to pack them in the taxi. The room was cozy & surprisingly quiet considering it’s location. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about it. 20/10 in my book.

Right on Puerta del Sol, the hotel is steps from the metro, dining, and major sights, making it easy to explore on foot. The lively plaza brings late-night noise and taxis cannot reach the entrance due to the pedestrian zone.

This is a unique boutique hotel in the heart of Puerto del Sol. So much to walk to and see. The staff was super helpful and arranged transportation to the airport for us. We used the restaurant a couple of times which was convenient. Walked to everything from that location. Because its in the heart of everything, it can be loud at night. Not continuous, but there were moments. It didn't bother us at all, but if you're a light sleeper and don't like a lot of action, this may not be your place.

The hotel was in a great location for getting to restaurants and tours. The room was very lean, but very small. The staff (house-cleaning and front desk) were very good. The breakfast was significantly overpriced for what was offered, and it was not that good compared to the other 5 hotels we stayed at while visiting Spain. I would not recommend the breakfast as you can find better options near the hotel.
