Review Praga Hotel Madrid

Reservation Information For The Praga Hotel Madrid

The Praga Hotel Madrid is near to Madrid’s river, the River Manzanares, and around the corner from the Vicente Calderón Stadium. The reception and lobby area are very spacious, and it has a rather 1970’s feel as the walls are a pinkish mottled marble that was typical in Spain a few years ago.

There are some interesting statues in the lobby that add a touch of quirkiness the hotel.
I found it to have a very unique style. There was some interesting soothing / oriental music playing in the lobby!
