Hostal Las Brisas Madrid
When looking for budget accommodations, two things are most important: clean rooms and great location. Meeting both requirements, the Hostal Las Brisas fit right into the mold of the perfect lodging for budget travelers visiting Madrid.
Hostal Las Brisas is a family-run hostel, so rooms are kept spic and span just like your mom or granny would. Each room has a well-maintained private bathroom, telephone, television with 24-hour reception, and air conditioning to beat the Madrid summer heat. Winter stay is also comfortable with centralized heating. The hostel has single rooms for 1, 2 or 3 people and double rooms with one or two beds.
Hostal Las Brisas is just 50 meters away from Puerta del Sol, the heart of Madrid where you will find the famous clock tower whose bells mark the traditional eating of the Twelve Grapes while ushering in the new year. Also located in this central square is the old Post Office, a statue of Charles III of Spain, the famous Tio Pepe sign, the kilómetro cero, and a statue of a bear and a madrone tree (madroño) which is the heraldic symbol of Madrid.
A little further away from the hostel are the historic Madrid Prado, Reina Sofía and Thyssen Museums, Plaza Mayor, Royal Palace, and Gran Via street that are all accessible by foot. Three subway stations are also within walking distance – Sol, Sevilla, and Anton Martin.
From the hostel doorstep you an easily find great places for dining, drinking and shopping. Note that most museums, bars and restaurants are closed on Mondays.
