Hostal Casa Duque is a simple hostal (a Spanish guesthouse) in the Barajas district, in the far north-east of Madrid. Its strength is being close to the airport and IFEMA. It suits you if you have an early flight or are visiting a trade fair, rather than if you want to sightsee in the centre.
Location and getting around
It is at Calle del Duque 14 (postcode 28042). Madrid-Barajas Airport Terminal 4 is about 2.6 km away in a straight line and the IFEMA exhibition centre about 3.4 km. For both, a taxi or public transport is the practical option.
The centre is far: Puerta del Sol is about 12 km away. Allow time for the Metro or a taxi if you plan to visit museums or have dinner in the central area.
Rooms and facilities
All rooms have a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer and toiletries. They also include a flat-screen TV, a wardrobe, bed linen and towels.
There is a terrace as a shared area. Wi-Fi, breakfast and parking are not listed, so ask beforehand if you need them.
Who it suits
- Travellers with an early flight or a long layover at Barajas.
- Exhibitors and visitors to fairs and conferences at IFEMA.
- Anyone after a practical night with their own bathroom who does not need to be in the centre.
Good to know
Check-in is from 13:00 to 22:00: if you land at night, ask the property how to arrive later. Check-out is early, between 08:00 and 10:00, which suits morning flights but not if you want to use the room until the last minute.
