Review Alexandra Hotel
Madrid
The Alexandra Hotel Madrid is a modern and comfortable hotel that
is 3 minutes walk from the central Gran Via road. The street it is
in has good facilities, and on Gran Via you’ll have access to
some of the best theatres Madrid has to offer. For a 2 star hotel,
the Alexandra Hotel Madrid is well equipped and caters for tourists
and business people.

The Alexandra Hotel Madrid offers a laundry service, and you’ll
also find nearby public parking within 2 minutes drive.
There’s
a spacious lounge downstairs from reception, that makes a great place
to relax and read. There’s also a café-bar, car rental
is available through reception, and the reception has internet and
a fax service.
Business Facilities
There are 2 meeting rooms available at the Alexandra Hotel Madrid,
the Alex I and Alex II. Combined they can hold up to 90 people. The
meeting rooms are really modern and airy.
Rooms
In total the Alexandra Hotel Madrid has 68 modern and comfortable
rooms all with en-suite bathroom, satellite TV, phone, safe, CH and
AC. The rooms are decorated in creams and rustic reds and I found them
to have a minimalist and modern feel. A handful of the rooms have a
small balcony with a view to the street.

| The Street Leading To Gran Via From The Alexandra Hotel Madrid |
The Alexandra Hotel Madrid has many facilities within 100 metres on
the same street, including: post box, herbal shop, tobacconists, banks,
café and tapas bar. If you are feeling a little oriental then
there’s also a Chinese restaurant about 50 metres away in the
direction of Gran Via. Or for convenience, there’s a take-away
pizza place right downstairs.
This area of Madrid is quite businesslike and there are several large
companies with their offices between Gran Via and the Plaza España.
By contrast, Gran Via itself attracts a lot of tourists due to the
hundreds of shops there. There are also several theatres, tapas bars
and cafes along Gran Via.
