Hotel Laura was an excellent place to stay right in the heart of Madrid. I will stay there again and highly recommend it. They even had an english newspaper, excellent coffee and breakfast and a very nice staff! more

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is perfect, just off Gran Via and in walking distance to all the main attractions. We were especially impressed with the staff who were friendly and knowledgeable about the city. We would definitely return. more

I've stayed at this hotel for over a month. First in August 2008 and then in Nov 2008. Excellent location. In Madrid's downtown. Within a short walk from 4 metro stations: Callao, Opera, Sol, Santo Domingo. Surrounded by nice restaurants and shops. Calle Arenal and Calle Mayor and Plaza Mayor are right there. Puerta del Sol and Calle Preciados a... more

Locations of all the room-mate hotels are fabulous. The hotels are very efficiently organized so the smaller rooms are perfectly comfortable! The breakfast buffet was fresh and nice.

The potential downside: we had a duplex, & the stairs are split & steep - they would not suit the slightly infirm or uncertain, or those with poor eyesight. Lighting in the living room might also be too low in the... more

What a wonderful stay at Room Mate Laura. Perfectly located very helpful and accommodating staff. Excellent breakfast for the price. Second stay at a Room Mates hotel and would definitely stay in one again. Very hip and cool decor - excellent experience all around. more

The hotel is very modern and chic. The rooms are bigger than average for Europe and have a nice design. The hotel is located very near the Plaza del Sol. The area is noisy but we didn't have too much trouble falling asleep. It was easy to hop on the Metro or walk to all the tourist attractions. The breakfast... more
