7 Islas Hotel

Well located hotel just off Gran Via in Madrid. The ground floor and reception area is very modern and contemporary with a bar / restaurant situated in this area (which we didn't use). ||We had a deluxe room on the 6th floor which was nice but the view from the window faced onto a wall (the top part of the wall had been cut out to try and give a view). The view had been advertised as a patio and so I appreciate it may be a translation issue but the patio pictures shown on the website are of a lovely looking stairwell with white washed with plants (that can be viewed from the reception area and the breakfast room) there are no pictures on the website of the internal wall that was the view from our room. I can't deny that this was disappointing on arrival.||The room was quiet and very clean. White wooden floor, also a minibar. The bed was quite hard and not particularly comfortable (though this can obviously be somebody elses preference!). ||Bathroom was small but did have a bath as well as a shower and was very clean too. The hair dryer is one that is attached to the wall but I didn't use it.||Breakfast was very good quality and selection. The guy with the beard at breakfast was very friendly and welcoming. ||The staff on reception didn't really engage when we entered and left the hotel. The cleaners were very friendly.||Overall, a nice place but I feel they should be more upfront about the rooms that face onto a wall.

Very nice hotel, extremely friendly and helpful staff, and the location is great. Not too noisy but still 30 minutes from clubs and 30 minutes from old ibiza makes it perfectly situated to do both. The rooms can be small, but they're not unreasonable and the balcony was usable and pleasant despite ours not having any view. There is a rooftop bar with a fun atmosphere as well that provides a decent view. The free breakfast was great and so was the pool, I would most definitely stay here again.

A fantastic location in the gay district, just off the main shopping drag. Rooms are set above an art gallery, the staff were friendly on arrival but not overly involved with the rest of my stay, which was fine by me! Had an Easy room which was more than comfortable on the inside light well of the building. The bed was very comfortable and evening quiet. The bathroom is fabulous - gorgeous products and excellent water pressure in the shower (over bath). Toilet & bidet. Easy walk to lots of places - didn’t use public transport at all, despite the heatwave. Would highly rec & go back when next in Madrid!

Nice stylish design, modern look with beautiful vintage items, creates a warm atmosphere. The staff was at least as nice as the room and the design of the hotel. Great central location just off Gran Via, but the room was surprisinhly quiet and silent. Even the airco worked silent and great, so we had a lovely sleep although we were in the buzz of the city centre! Definitely coming back one day and would 100% recommend this hotel for a nice city trip.

This was our first stay on our trip to Spain. We always enjoy a good boutique style hotel because they are always so unique. So we decided to give this one a try while visiting Madrid. The Hotel was easy to find and in a good neighborhood within walking distance to everything (grocery store across the street, restaurants near by and a good Flamenco theater). There is a small art gallery downstairs and a neat bar. The Hotel is very modern and upscale. Once in the room we found that it was very clean and comfortable. We were also very surprised with how quiet our room was at night on the 5th floor. I have nothing but positive things to say about this hotel and would gladly stay here again if given the chance.||

A very central location right in the heart of Madrid. Walking distance to most things you're likely going to visit with magnificent parks just a small walk away. There is shopping and a metro right on the doorstep. No parking at the hotel although there is an agreement with a parking lot at a discounted rate. You can however, park up outside the hotel and drop your bags off. The rooms themselves are perfectly fine, modern and well decorated. The staff are friendly and will respond when engaged. I never tried breakfast as there are so many eateries on your doorstep. For the price I paid, I'd probably look elsewhere just to try other hotels. However I would return to this hotel.without issue as it's extremely convenient location is highly sort after

We booked five rooms for a family wedding and it was perfect. The rooms are incredibly stylish and comfortable, the staff are ultra-helpful and we loved the bar/restaurant area. The location of 7 Islas makes it very easy to get everywhere on foot and we loved every minute of our stay. We'll definitely be back!

This was such an amazing hotel for me and my daughter. It was central to everything in the heart of the city. I was impressed by the interior design details. It was clean, well priced, inspiring and cool! I will tell friends and come back! Thanks 😊

This hipster feeling, industrial modern cum chic appearing hotel had a lot to like for me. For those looking to stay near Madrid City Center, this location is great. Just off of Gran Via, it is on a quiet neighborhood street with easy metro stop access at Gran Via (1 block away) and it is within easy walking distance of the cool areas of Puerto del Sol, Chueca, The Opera, and Callao. It is also about a 10 min walk to some of the best places to indulge in tavern/tapas related pleasures just to the east of Puerto del Sol. The hotel interior is somewhat minimalist with cement and off white furniture tones and a lot of interesting metallic touches such as the metal storage lockers at reception where you can check in your baggage for safekeeping. The staff were also somewhat minimalist in attitude which I kind of liked. No one was falling over me to try to carry my bags or get me a drink. If I wanted or needed something, I had to ask for it and once I did, my request was promptly and courteously addressed. Service was exactly what I wanted and nothing over the top. Room prices are moderate to more expensive but the benefit of this trade off is that you are not getting some flea-infested hostel for your money. I would recommend a higher floor, low numbered room which is towards the rear of the hotel. Otherwise, you will run the risk of fronting Calle Valverde which has a few late night bar spots that stay hopping until 4am and it can be pretty boisterous. I was in room 601 and it was as quiet as a church even with my window open. I loved the large format bottles of high-end soaps, shampoos and lotion in the bathrooms (all Malin and Goetz products) and the minimalist tone to the rooms made them feel very clean and well-kept. Unfortunately, part of the minimalist motif meant that there was really no work desk or space (at least not in my room) so beware if you are there on business like I was because it is not conducive to activity that requires a desk. The other improvement that I would recommend is that while appearing very modern, they have utilized the half shower/bath glass partition that is so popular throughout Europe. I simply do not get this concept. Because it does not cover the entire shower, it is impossible to take a shower without getting water all over the place. It is a complete design flaw that seems to have persisted for decades. How Europe can be responsible for engineering some of the worlds finest precision luxury vehicles and then overlook the simple design of a shower barrier is beyond me. The location alone would bring me back on my next trip to Madrid. Now if I could only fit into skinny jeans and learn how to take a shower with no overspray, my life at the 7 Islas would be perfect!

I loved everything about this hotel. It was clean with minimalist decor. The room was spacious for two people. It was so close to the Gran Via with lots of restaurants and shops around. The metro station was also close to the hotel. I found this hotel as one of the top boutique hotels in Time Out magazine. The price was also very reasonable. I liked the spacious bathrooms the decor was simple and fun. I would recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here next time I'm in Madrid! Cute bar and cafe and nice seating area in the lobby. There was also decent breakfast for 12€. So many breakfast options so didn't opt for the breakfast. Free WiFi and staff was great! Loved this place! Five stars!

It was like staying in a trendy hotel in Soho or Tribeca in NYC but at a fraction of the cost, none of the noise, and a friendlier staff. Our room was beautiful. Flooded with natural light when the curtains were open. Spacious bathroom. The staff was exceptional. The location really can't be beat. I will post pictures because the ones posted aren't very good.

We really enjoyed our four nights at this convenient and upscale Madrid Hotel. Although it seems more like a three star hotel doe to lack of some four star features, the rooms are comfortable and quiet. We really appreciated the breakfast buffet with its very competent and helpful staff and ample selection of fresh Frits as well as eggs and bacon. And it was nice to have an English newspaper for breakfast. They should upgrade their cable TV selection by adding something like CNN, but that is a quibble. The proximity to the Gran Via metro stop makes this a hotel with easy access to the key sites. It is a 15-20 minute walk or 5 euro taxi ride to the Prado.

This was a lovely hotel centrally located on a quiet street (very close to all the action). Loved the minimalist decor and the cleanliness .The hotel staff was knowledgeable and helpful and the price was reasonable $ I'd definitely return here next time I am in Madrid. Mateo, one of the hotel staff members was particularly helpful. I often spoke to him about what I needed to know, directions, etc...
