With Cartagena Metro station practically at the door, the Hotel Abba Madrid is a practical 4-star hotel on Avenida de América. Rooms are soundproofed and there is a buffet breakfast and a bar. It is a good fit if you get around by public transport and want a functional hotel with good links to the airport.
Location and getting around
Cartagena station is less than a 5-minute walk away, and so is the Avenida de América interchange. According to the hotel, the airport bus stops very close by, on the avenue itself.
On foot:
- Santiago Bernabéu stadium: about 35 minutes.
- Puerta de Alcalá and Retiro Park: about 40 minutes.
Puerta del Sol is about 3.6 km away. For the centre, the Prado or the Reina Sofía, the Metro is better: the hotel estimates about 20 minutes to the museums.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms are simple, with carpeted floors, soundproofing, climate control, wifi, a minibar and satellite TV.
Breakfast is a buffet served in the hotel dining room. There is a bar with a seating area for a drink at the end of the day or a break between meetings.
Who it suits
- Business travellers who get around by Metro.
- Those arriving at the airport who want to go straight there without a taxi.
- Guests bothered by traffic noise: the rooms are soundproofed.
- Anyone who wants a 4-star hotel without services they will not use, such as a pool or spa.
Good to know
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is until 12:00. On arrival you will be asked for photo ID and a credit card. Avenida de América carries a lot of traffic, although the rooms are insulated. Its listed services include breakfast and a bar, but not a restaurant for lunch or dinner.
