Hotel Ganivet - Madrid

8.9

i was pleased about your kidness and services.

9.1

It was a very pleasant stay (3 nights). The hotel offers erverything you need when you make a city-trip. We took breakfast outside the hotel (8€ per perosn seemed a bit to high). The hotel is located very well. A Metro station is very close to the hotel, also several other Bus-Stations. In a couple of minutes you are everywhere in the center of Madrid. And it takes about 45 minutes from the airport to the hotel by Metro.

8.9

Excellent choice of hotel in good location - really handy for the Metro. Would recommend this to friends for a short or longer stay in Madrid

5.8

Overall hotel was good value for money in a great location. Only complaints would be the air conditioning - very noisey. Also our room was opposite the room used to store all cleaning products hence the noise level was very high from about 7am

6.0

We were there two nights. We were happy about the location and cleaness, but our room did not have a fridge. Madrid is a hot city and a hotel of this category should have a small fridge. We found three small bottles of water waiting for us on the first night. We only found out us we were leaving that every other floor but not ous has a cold water dispenser. I think if the staff had told us we would enjoyed our stay even more.

I am tourist from Hong Kong, i stay in Hotel Ganivet for 4 nights, the location of hotel is close to subway station, this is convenience and important to traveller, but it is little bit far to Plaza Mayor (someone said 10mins by foot, but i spend 20~25mins). And the room is clean and quiet, bathroom is fine but the shower gel and shampoo are very bad, better to prepare yourself. Finally it is a good hotel and reasonable price, a good choice to stay here.

8.3

We stayed for 5 days in the midst of a July heat-wave. The air conditioning was wonderful. The breakfasts (now 10 euros) were excellent with lots of healthy choices, fresh fruits and great variety. Chilled beer with complementary tapas in the bar were very welcome in the heat wave. The shower was great. Two problems we encountered: the bed was very firm and very uncomfortable for my wife with arthritis. Fortunately there were 2 extra king-sized pillows provided and she slept between those. Second problem was minor: the desk chair was so low that it was difficult to use the desk surface and the air-conditioning fan blasted freezing air right at the desk in our room. Solution: use a pillow on the chair and turn off the air-conditioning while using the desk. For a light breakfast, or fabulous ice cream or sandwiches or pastries, try Nurielle at c/Toledo 80, just a short walk up the street: excellent and inexpensive.

8.9

The rooms was small but clean and comfortable. The bathroom was hugely spacious. Location was excellent! Staff was very helpful!

8.1

I servizi offerti, l'eccellente collegamento con la città grazie alla vicina metrò, la dimensione delle camere, fanno dell'hotel un punto di riferimento da suggerire.

9.8

we liked it very much and would stay here again. for europe the room size was very nice.

9.1

We travelled with 4 teen agers, two senior citizens, and two middle agers. Hotel was pretty quiet, definitely not in the hub of things which was fine for us. Puerta de toledo metro and the "circular" bus were what got us where we had to go. there was an old folks home across the street that had its' residents stationed in the window watching life go by. We had a great time conversing with them. they enjoyed the company and we enjoyed making their day!

6.2

Hotel tutto sommato buono.Alla reception si fermavano a un inglese scolastico le stanze che prendevano anche i canali rai.Tutto sommato è a pochi km sia da plaza Mayor che dalla reggia reale e con un po di buona volontà si raggiunge tutto a piedi.Lo consiglio a chi vuole risparmiare e viversi Madrid al meglio.Le metropolitane sono a pochi passi e ci sono in zona molti alimentari.

7.9

El hotel está correcto. Está ubicado a unas pocas cuadras de los atractivos de Madrid por lo cual es fácil moverse caminando. Además tiene dos estaciones de subte cercanas y varias líneas de colectivo. La habitación es clásica, sin lujos, con una decoración standard pero aceptable. No tomamos el desayuno buffet ya que nos pareció demasiado caro (15eu x pax). Sin embargo la cafetería del hotel ofrece varios desayunos combinados por alrededor de 3eu.

9.2

Vicinissimo al centro!Camere moderne e pulitissime!Bagno bellissimo.

9.0

a small seafood tapas bar offering fresh oysters, clams and grilled shrimps is a jewel i found near the hotel. it is located just between the hotel and the metro La Latina, very local and delicious.

6.9

OK for a short stay, but services and attendance could improve

6.7

The hotel was fine. It was walking distance to the Plaza Mayor & 2 metro stops as stated in the web site. The front desk personnel were not very friendly but the staff at the cafe made up for it they were the best. We loved the coffee there in the morning to start our day and end our day with sangria. We would consider staying there again.

7.5

Basically, a good basic hotel in the old and crowded part of the city. No fridge or coffemaker. Pleasand english speaking staff. Walking distance to Plaza Mayor and Sol, metro within 5 min walk. Supermarket close by, but a better one is in El Corte Ingles on Puerta del Sol. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel, but it has a nice looking cafe (works from 8am) - morning coffee was pretty good. Internet in the lobby one euro per 15 min. We had a room in the back- quiet unless someone was talking in the hall. Then you can hear the conversation as if someone is talking right next to youe bed. I might stay in it again, but would probably look for another one in a better area even not so close to center - Madrid metro is excellent. In general, good experience.

9.6

This is a very nice hotel at excellent location. Highly recommended.

8.7

Demasiado bien ubicado. Se pueden visitar muchos sitios de interes a pie y cerca se puede tomar un autobus. Em hotel muy completo y los empleados muy amables. la habitacion aunque no mmuy grande tenia todo lo que hace falta.llegue a el por una recomendacion de mi sabrino y se lo agradezco.

8.2

Nice location, friendly staff, clean rooms, pleasant place overall. Convenient to the metro, tourist bus and taxi station, easy walk to historical center.

9.6

Location is very nice. Staff was very friendly,they helped us with every question we have. Such a nice and centraly located hotel for that price is a very good deal.

9.6

This was en excellent choice, the overall quality probably deserves a higher star rating.

9.0

The room is very clean and spacious, convenient location, less than 5 minutes to metro station, high quality hotel for reasonable price. It's the best hotel of the 5 hotels we stayed in our Spain trip.

8.5

Good situation : 15 minutes walk from the Plaza Mayor and 2 min walk from the subway. Room was clean and well equiped. Breakfast costs 9 € (not included in the room price) but it worth it (large choice and good quality).

9.8

Best quality price hotel I ever seen. We spent two lovely nights. The room were huge and clean. We couldn't here any noise from the other rooms or the street. The bed was perfect. The employees were very professional. Even the security guard was very helpful. The wireless broadband was accessible directly. The food at the breakfast buffet was delicious. The buffet is opened till 11H00. The hotel is located at 200 m from a metro station. And you can reach the old Madrid city by feet. I say it again : perfect!!!

9.8

I have visited Madrid several times and the Ganivet is a great hotel for a very low price compared to others. Big rooms, comfortable bed, steps from the metro and a nice walk to the Plaza Mayor area. I will definitely stay there again.

7.3

Sorry, yhe french version of venere.com seems to be out of order. Hotel standard bien situé et calme (en tous cas pour les chambres sur cour). Bonne base pour visiter Madrid

Wonderful experience, will return to that hotel next time I am in Madrid.

9.1

Perfect location, close to historical center of Madrid (10 mn walking from Plazza Mayor, less than one hr walking from every touristic location including Prado, less than one hr from Airport by metro) but nevertheless in a very quiet area. Many restaurants between plazza Mayor and hotel Ganivet. The perfect hotel for a short stay in Madrid indeed!

6.1

The hotel is good,but the families with children are advised not have breakfast in the hotel. I have 3 boys,12,10 and 5 years old, and I was charged the full breakfast prize for them, i.e. EUR 47 for the family!! It has been the only hotel I've been in Europe where children pay as adults at breakfast...When my wife asked about it ,she was given a nonsense answer,it is a shame..

7.5

A bedroom with "twin" beds... not good for couple as the 2 beds were getting separately from each others. On the 2nd day, bedroom not done. This is a standard hotel with good location.

8.9

Only spent one night there. Didn't have time to check out available facilities. It was very clean, great shower, 100 m from a metro station.

9.1

Nice Hotel In a good location not far from Madrid City Centre, 2 minute walk to metro stop Puerto De Toledo, with a small shop near by and quite a few tapa's bars. Taxi from town at night once the metro has stopped will range from 5-10 euros depending on how far away you go. Hotel staff very friendly, hotel rooms very nice & clean. I would definately stay here again.

8.1

All was fine Only one comment as I found difficulties to find the Hotel because in the e-mail received was written only "Toledo" as address but not specified it was Cale de Toledo and there is also Ronda de Toledo starting from Porta Toledo, so we have lost time to find it

8.4

Good hotel in the heart of Madrid and only a short walk from the main piazza's. The only glitch was not being able to buy a beer at the bar to take back to the room and charge it to my account!But I would use the hotel again.

7.2

Very good and clean place with a high standard on most areas. The english speaking skills of the staff are a bit on the low side but on the other hand this is to be expected in Madrid.

9.9

I booked 4 different hotels in 4 different European Countries.. and this one was by far the best!!! the money we payed was the same than in other cities, but this one had services of a 4 star hotel (minus room service and stuff) but very modern, plasma TV, better than describe in the hotel page!

8.2

Excellent hotel! Acomodations were really very good, we had easy access to internet at good cost inside the facilities of the Ganivet. The price isn´t really what you may call "the best choice", but it was worth it. Madrid´s metro is excellent and can take you everywhere: there is one of the main stations just 20 mts from the hotel. Location is fine. In Brasil, we are used to have breakfast included in the price, but right next door you can have a nice preakfast for something like 4 euros...

8.7

Profissionalismo, seriedade, honestidade; uma localização adequada, preços correctos. Os "desayunos" poderiam ser melhores, mas, pelo preço... Voltaremos.

9.4

Wonderful hotel for a bargain price! Close to Pla. de Toledo metro stop and easy walk to Sol and Playa Major. Quiet with small but adequate cafe/bar. I would definitely recommend and stay here again!!

8.8

Estuve 15 dias en Europa , en -madrid estuve 3 dias y de todoslos hotele economicosen que me aloje Ganivet fue el mejor. Elpersonal no es muy amable, pero el hotel es confortable y por su precio dio mas de lo que esperaba

9.9

This hotel was just as avertised. Great location to public transportation, sites, and other things I wanted to do.

8.6

It´s a very professional hotel, with a business profile. Everything worked fine. The only problem is the smell of cigarette, but it´s everywhere in Spain. xxxx Hotel bastante profissional e correto, mas voltado mais para executivos. Tudo funcionou bem. O único problema foi o cheiro de cigarro, mas isso está presente em todos os lugares da Espanha.

9.6

Walking distance to a lot of what a tourist wants to see in Madrid. We didn't love the breakfast, but it is varied and ample. Our (standard) room was small, but the room and the hotel in general were very clean. Staff were friendly and helpful.

7.8

The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was a good size and the the hotel was only a short walk from the metro. There is a good choice of restuarants and bars nearby. I would certainly stay in this hotel again.

8.4

We stayed at Ganviet from saturday till monday in the beginning of May, and were very pleased with our stay. The hotel is located in walking distance to both Placa Mayor and Sol, and there are lots of small cafès and resturants on your way there. The rooms and impression of the hotel are better than what you can see from the pictures on the website.
