Los Lanceros

Great hotel for the price, we stayed here for 4 nights and were very pleased with our stay. The room was spacious and comfortable, bathroom has everything that could be needed, even a bidet. Also there was a balcony with a nice view. Staff was very helpful, room service did their job exceptionally well, no complaints whatsoever. The only things that were lacking is the lack of slippers and no option to heat up food brought from grocery stores anywhere in the hotel, but it isn't a dealbreaker. Special thanks to Anna, she gave us a lot of helpful advice and help we didn't know we needed, and in general it was a pleasure to talk to such a great person :)

Pros: A usefully-located hotel. Very good reception service. Basic but adequate rooms which are very good value. Clean. Nice views.|Cons: If you are above the restaurant area, even on an upper floor, you hear all the chairs being moved around up to and a bit past midnight.|The restaurant food at dinner was really bad, but masses of restaurants close by in town.

The walk from the train station was about 15 minutes and it's uphill most of the way. My room was large and clean, but most of all it was super quite and I had a very good night sleep.

if you want to be near the monastery, here you go. not much other than that. severely undercooked my chicken sandwich and almost killed me. Also took hours to get my food and the check so if u pull up at 8 pm be ready to leave at midnight if you want just a simple chicken sandwich. Since I was stuck here for the foreseeable future and it was raining with nowhere else to go, a few nights later I got the expensive steak and paid DEARLY. shame on the cook, who clearly needs to hang up the apron. not sure what I did to deserve your wrath. rooms are okay, but some WAY more spacious than others and its just a gamble if you get a spacious room or not. maids come at inconvenient times and always misplace the pillows I set on the bed on the floor. they also knocked my pills off my side table and crushed one with the bed when they moved it - so thanks for that. the double beds dont separate, they’re connected by a door-hinge. balcony was nice to have, but my room faced the sun so it gets super hot during the day and there is minimal airflow. also try speaking to the front desk in english and they will look at you like you have 2 heads. the mini fridge looks and functions like it was made in 1930. the single elevator is 2x2 so good luck fitting more than 2-3 people in there, or one with luggage. they have one janky iron that doesn’t even get hot, and a useless pant press in every room. there is no ceiling fan or light, just a lamp in the corner and a reading light that will burn a hole in your skull if you fall asleep with it pointed at your head. 1 star is reserved for unlivable bedbug-type situations so this place gets 2.

Needed a hotel to stay over in when visiting my sister’s place on New Year’s Eve, Los Lanceros was perfect - the room, the breakfast, the dining area, everything. Thank you Los Lanceros!

5 stars because of the convenience of its restaurant, with menu even on weekends and holidays. Edit in 2025: The place to have lunch with family and/pr friends. Familiar atmosphere, good food, fair prices (daily menu) and convenient location. Have been repeating since 2015 or so

The location is great, about 5 minutes by foot to the Monastery of El Escorial. Service is very friendly and willing to help. Rooms are clean, comfortable and quiet. Beds are very comfortable. A good place to spend a couple of nights. Don't expect wonders, but it is a very solid offer for a good price. All interesting areas can be reached within minutes by foot !

Great little hotel, perfectly located in the beautiful Spanish town of San Lorenzo de El Escorial. After being greeted by the lovely Sarah on reception I knew I was in for a great stay. My room was very nice and had a lovely balcony overlooking the park. I have already booked again for next year and looking forward to my return visit.
