Hotel Europa Madrid

The Hotel Europa Madrid is in one of the best locations in terms of shops, bars and restaurants. It's just a few metres from the central square of Puerta del Sol, on a pedestrianised street that is a shopaholics dream. Its entrance isn't elaborate, but if you raise your eyes to the rest of the building from the outside, you'll see that it is an attractive classical style building, painted in a refreshing beige colour.

Hotel Facilities

The Hotel Europa Madrid offers a laundry service, fax, arrangement of car rental and sightseeing tours, and parking. There's lift access to all floors.

Facilities For The Disabled

There are two rooms available that have been specially adapted for disabled people. They have wider baths, hand rails and lower surface areas for easier access.

Rooms

The rooms come with en-suite bathroom and hair-dryer, radio-TV with international channels, direct dial phone, safe and room service is available. There's also AC and CH. There are 103 rooms altogether and exterior rooms have a view over the Puerta del Sol.

The room I saw had a modern feel, and a parquet floor. The colour scheme was cream and red.
