hôtel bien situé, proche centre et métro ...
petit prix, du coup faut pas s'attendre à un palace : les chambres sont correctes, les sanitaires sur le palier, un peu moins.
le prix comprant le petit déjeuner qui est correct, sinon l'accueil est très sympathique. |

The Dolce Vita is just of the Grand Via within the heart of Madrids lively social district. It?s an easy wlak from Chueca or Grand Via Metro stations. The hostal is in a great location for those wishing to enjoy the nightlife, as well as a perfect base to explore this wonderful citys cultural delights. Don?t stay here if you want silence and tranquillity!
The Hostal is up four flights of stairs and there is no lift (but you can stop for a seat and a rest in the various landings should you feel the need!). The room we had was basic, but clean and with a wonderful en-suite shower room. The staff were always polite and helpful. Not all of them spoke English but you can have fun with gestures and ?spanglais?!
All said, we would certainly recommend The Dolce Vita for those on limited incomes who wish to indulge in Madrids nightlife!

Some of the employers were so loud at night, I had to ask them to be silent. The beds were really not very good. Day 2 the shower was under repair, there was no water, and day three, the toilet broke down. I've seen much better. |

Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans une chambre avec 2 lits une place et un coin salle d'eau (et pas salle de bain). De manière générale, le séjour à Hostal Dolce Vita a été agréable. Hostal Dolce Vita est très bien placé (proche du centre de Madrid à pied et proche d'une bouche de métro). La chambre était aussi très calme avec chauffage (il commençait à faire un peu froid). Par contre, on a été très déçus de l'apparence de la chambre (par rapport aux photos présentées sur le site internet). En effet, même si l'état global de la chambre était bien et propre, elle était moins jolie que sur les photos du site et le coin douche faisait un peu "peur": les portes de la cabine de douche ne tenaient pas et, le pire, était la moissure qui "tapissait" tout le plafond de la douche. Enfin, il ne fallait pas être trop grand, car le coin toilette était minuscule. Mais bon, vu que l'on ne passe pas la journée dans la chambre, cela convenait très bien quand même. |

The place look very nice and clean. The staff very friendly and helpful as well as guests. The location is easy access to metro station and walking distance the the sights. Please be more careful about your luggage(s) since the hostal is on the 4th floor and no elevator. This is not complain but just FYI for the others. I had a great time there. |

it´s really in the middle of madrid and the gay scene as well... the rooms are nice and individual. I had a double room with ensuite ... to the backside and it was a very quite room although you could hear everything trough the wall and door... the breakfast are hardly deserves that name... instantcoffee and prepacked biscuits ...thats it...
the staff was quiet desinterested and from 5 nights.. i got a bewildered exchange from the towels a the 5 night for the first time... no thanks - no smile - no conversation... just money-grubbing... but to be honest i think it was one of the better places in madrid... next time i will top up little money and will go to another place... however the interior was really nice |

non sono riuscita a soggiornare al dolce vita perchè una volta arrivata mi è stato detto che non c'era posto,nonostante la prenotazione,così dopo tre piani a piedi e a mezzanotte ho dovuto prendere le valigie e spostarmi in un altro posto indicato dal personale, "la fontana", che per fortuna si è rivelato carino e accogliente. |

Although I felt the hostal was of good value and the staff were friendly and helpful (they did not even charge me for usage of the internet, albeit I was only on for a couple of minutes) there were 2 negative points. I was told that breakfast ends at 11am, however at 10.40am there were no hot water to make tea with, and it was indicated that it will not be refilled. Also, I returned from my first day out to find that my bed have been tidies up, but my door was left unlocked, which was not very good for security reasons as I had my passport and some money in the room. |

La limpieza dejaba mucho que desear, tuvimos que pedirle al chico que pasara la aspiradora por la alfombra de la habitacion, pues tenia suciedad de semanas. El agua de la ducha salia fria y ademas encontramos una cucaracha en el cuarto de bano. La calle era super ruidosa. No voto 0 porque los empleados fueron amables en todo momento. |

The place and the staff were very nice and welcoming. The location of the Hostel is really good, very close to a couple f Metro stations. Breakfast could have been better, but overall, it's a great place for a short stay, especially if you are looking for a decent place to crash after a long day in Madrid |

Un ambiente muy tranquilo, la ubicacion inmejorable en pleno corazon de Madrid, con todo a la mano, desde el ocio, lugares de interes turistico, vida noturna y muy buena comunicacion al aeropuerto de Barajas. Felicidades, y les recomiendo, que calidad-precio vale la pena poder disfrutar de su estancia en Madrid en un lugar como el HOSTAL DOLCE VITA!!!!!! |

I didn´t expect much from a hostel but the room was fantastic, comfortable and cleaned daily. The staff were very friendly and helpful and, although I was only staying for a few days, you could easily stay there for a week or two week long holiday. There is Internet access and Wifi available and it is very near to Chueca station and Gran Via, where there are lots of good shops. |

è il secondo anno in cui sono tornata all'ostello. La posizione è assolutamente straordinaria, nel bel mezzo di Chueca il quartiere alternativo e pieno di vita di Madrid. Molto consigliato alle coppie, l'arredamento è davvero carino e l'atmosfera molto rossa. Sconsigliato alle persone anziane o con problemi motori, non c'è l'ascensore e le scale di legno sono tutte storte e scivolose. Posso dirvi con tutta sincerità che se dovessi nuovamente tornare a Madrid non esiterei sulla scelta! |

Chambre très simple avec température élevée car pas d'air conditionné. Douche souvent froide. Le petit déjeuner est simple à heures fixes (2 minutes après 11h, c'est trop tard). Le personnel n'est pas toujours accueillant et ne parle pas anglais. Rue bruyante car quartier animé mais double vitrage efficace. |

The whole experience, overall ,was great. Great location,great value for money, friendly staff, clean room, what else you need?
I stayed in one bedroom on-suite. I liked the all finishing touches like paintings on the wall and little rug and the curtain, all in perfect harmony. The best feature was, that I had a little (shared) balcony. The view was great also. Little niosy over the weekend, but I guess you are there to enjoy Spanish way of life, right?:)
The worst thing was, that there is some sort of construction going on in the whole building, and it is a little bit dusty going three floors up.
Other than that, I am happy guest. I would recommend for weekend breaks. |

Very good pirice quality ratio, rooms are basic but a lot of effort is put in decorating them. Breakfast is basic but that is normal for this price. Only bathroom and shared showers need better maintenance. But in general, worth the money. Extremely helpful staff: we needed anther rom for one night the week after. Since Dolce Vita was already booked they helped us search for other hostels. A big thank you for the staff for that |

very loud, but on the other side great location
had a room without bath, the communal bath was obviously shared by too many other rooms, so we had to wait very often for a longer time to go to the toilet or to have a shower
only one table (4 seats) for breakfast, we had to take our breakfast to our room |
