Hotel Catalonia Goya

The 7 Best Hotels in Madrid (Updated 2025)

"Set in a 19th-century building right on Calle de Goya, this four-star hotel manages to feel tranquil inside despite being on one of the city’s most exclusive shopping streets. I enjoyed the plunge pool, fitness center, and soundproofed rooms, and the breakfast spread is satisfying with fresh bread, pastries, cold cuts, fruit, made‑to‑order eggs and pancakes, plus a machine for freshly squeezed orange juice. The sizable rooms are clean and stylish with contemporary design and parquet floors, and include a desk, smart TV with Chromecast, minibar, coffee maker, and safe; the spacious bathrooms have hairdryers and large showers with good water pressure. It’s walking distance to many attractions and sits next to a metro station, and I think the value is phenomenal." - Matthew Kepnes
