While this property is very nicely located and the staff is amazing I feel like we were duped. We received a “free” upgrade upon check in however the room was incredibly outdated and nothing I would have ever booked as a 4 star property. We were only in town for 35 hours so we decided to make do with it but I wasn’t thrilled. There was no bathroom door, not even a toilet door. There was outdated wood paneling and the pictures looked nothing like the rooms we booked. On our last night we noticed while going to bed that our linens had been changed but with dirty sheets and a completely different comforter that wouldn’t stay on the bed. I feel like we were given this “upgrade” bc they were able to sell the nicer updated rooms for more last minute. It’s definitely marketed to Americans as that’s all I encountered while there. Would have not stayed here and do not recommend when there are so many other hotels that are actually 4 star properties.

Located in a very lively area, we expected some noise at night, but that exceeded our expectations, it's Madrid after all. The hotel was remodeled nor far ago, everything looks update and clean. Rooms are on the small size, but for a couple with very little luggage, there are perfect. Pros: breakfast! Amazing! even better than some 5 star hotels, and the breakfast area is beautiful, perfect setting and illumination, nice music on the background. Cons: the architect that designed the bathrooms didn't thought of security, the shower ended in a pointed corner sticking out, and the huge sink with less than two inches deep, had corners pointed corners too. Overall, a very nice hotel that definitely we will go back.

The hotel is beautiful, the cleanliness is impeccable, the service of the staff is very good, the breakfast is excellent with a great variety and excellent quality. Unfortunately, although the location is excellent, the noise from the pedestrians and traffic is unbearable. There is never peace, always noise and noise. If you want to sleep in peace, I do not recommend this hotel at all. I had to use earplugs to be able to sleep and even then it was too noisy.

Sin duda el " Hotel Francisco I" hace ya tiempo que se ha ganado en nuestra familia el lugar de nuestro hogar lejos del hogar. Un edificio con historia, en la preciosa esquina de Arenal, a pasos de Plaza Mayor y Puerta del Sol pero entre los árboles. Decorado con gustó exquisito, limpieza perfecta (muy poco frecuente en Europa hasta en los 5 estrellas!) desayuno delicioso con productos de estación y locales, y un staff siempre dispuesto a hacerte sentir más que bienvenido. El detalle de la botella de cava helada nuestra última noche, de 4 estadías hasta noviembre, nos encantó. Nos vemos en pocos días. Sin duda nuestra suite 405 nos estará esperando! Gracias Miles a todos.

Enjoyable Madrid at Hotel Francisco.
Great place to stay. Location is excellent. Opera Metro is the closed, around 3-4minutes walk. We have stayed in Madrid a few times and would rebook here in an instant. So close to many attractions or via the metro access. The breakfast is also excellent. Staff are friendly and accommodating.
