Hostal Smart Suite is on Calle Pedro Antonio de Alarcón, in the east of Madrid, far from the historic centre but with IFEMA and the airport closer than from Sol. All rooms have a private bathroom and there is a shared kitchen. It suits you if you come for a trade fair or get around by Metro and do not need to walk to the monuments.
Location and getting around
The address is in postcode 28017, in the Ciudad Lineal district. The centre is too far to walk: Puerta del Sol is about 5.2 km away and the Prado Museum about 4.4 km, so the Metro or a taxi is the practical choice. Puerta de Alcalá and Retiro Park are about 3.9 km away.
To the north-east, the IFEMA exhibition centre is about 4.8 km away and Madrid-Barajas Airport Terminal 4 about 8.4 km in a straight line.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms have air conditioning, a private bathroom, a desk and a flat-screen TV, with bed linen and towels included. There is free Wi-Fi throughout.
The shared kitchen is handy for preparing a simple breakfast or dinner. The hostal does not list a breakfast service or a restaurant.
Who it suits
- A good fit if you are going to a fair or conference at IFEMA and do not mind sleeping outside the centre.
- Practical if you fly in or out and want the airport closer than from Sol.
- Ideal if you organise your own meals and a kitchen helps.
- Useful if you travel for work and need a desk and Wi-Fi in the room.
