comments I stayed in the hostal for three nights and had such a good time in Madrid! The hostal was really clean and the beds were comfy. There was a nice character to the rooms instead of the clinical white hotel rooms that are usually on offer. It was very good value, excellently situated and the staff were very helpful. Will def recommend this place to my friends.

comments a parte i simpatici tre-quattro piani di scale, i ragazzi e le signorine della reception sono simpatici, gentili e danno ottimi consigli su dove andare a mangiare in economia e spasso! per quant riguarda il servizio: sono ambienti accoglienti, puliti e il cambio lenzuola e asciugamani è ogni due giorni!anche i prezzi sono molto interessanti quidi, fatevi forza per le scale, ma poi approfittate di questo posto!

comments Pessoal bem simpático e atencioso. Apesar de antigo é bem arrumadinho. O local é um pouco complicado de se achar, a rua é bem desconhecida, mas indo pela Gran Via é fácil. As escadas pra subir é que matam a gente, muito ruim.

comments The hostel was very nice - the rooms were very clean and the staff was very hospitable, always willing to help. The price was the best thing about this hostel and we got very good quality for what we paid for. The only negative experience was the other guests who were extremely loud but that happens. The hostel was perfectly situated and it was very easy to get around the city. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommended to anybody.

comments El hostal es una mezcla de pension humilde con suelo y paredes de madera, con decoracion pop de hotel de diseño, y el esfuerzo por crear una atmosfera distinta es muy de agradecer. El rellano del hostal, decorado con algun mueble pop y cuadros de "la dolce vita" de Fellini, ya es acogedor. El baño esta añadido dentro de la misma habitacion con mamparas de plastico semiopaco, esta bien aunque no sea demasiado intimo. Los chicos que atienden en la recepcion, exquisitamente amables. Una delicia.

comments Very nice hostel in an old Madrilenian house. Clean hostel and very hospitable people! The beds were als very good and you're in the heart of the Chueca quarter with a lot of nice restaurants, cafes and shops. The hostel is not far from attractions, like the Prado Museum. The only thing I was less satisfied about, was the 'open' shower in the bedroom. You had to open the window to get the room totally dry after you took a shower. But, in general, i think it is a very nice hostel and i would really recommend it to other visitors to the city of Madrid. Dante de Laat (the Netherlands)

Además el desayuno podría ser algo mejor, lamentablemente no hay variedad. De todos modos, las instalaciones son limpias y el personal muy atento. Hemos disfrutado de la estancia.

comments Das Hotel ist super gelegen und für den Preis mit Sicherheit eine gute Alternative. Wer jedoch bei Frühstück an Brötchen mit Wurst und Käse denkt, wird enttäuscht sein. Kaffee, heißes Wasser und heiße Milch ohne Ende, für den Magen jedoch nur eine kleine Packung Kekse. Ebenfalls sollte man bei einer Buchung eines Doppelzimmers darauf gefasst sein, seinen Mitreisenden eventuell näher als beliebt kennenzulernen. In unserem Zimmer gb es leider keine Abgrenzung zwischen Bad und Bett.

comments The hostel is fantastically located between Gran Via and Chueca. A few steps nearer Gran Via and I'm sure it would be more expensive so its great value for money. Rooms basic but clean and staff helpful and accommodating. One of the guys carried my 22kg case up the six flights of stairs. Breakfust included was fine for what I paid. as much coffee and juice as you wanted a two pre-packed madeleines. Plenty of hot water and internet access. I have recommended it to people already.

comments great hostel! in the centrum, rooms are funny, nice furniture, cleaning every day, celan towels. breakfast: juice, cafe, some biskit and other prepacked cookies. one morning there was cornflakes too, so not continental breakfast, but ok :) u have to leave the key at the recepcion if u go out, but it was not a problem for us. important: it is in the gay district, so there is a lot of young people, gay bars etc. otherwise in the hostel u can not hear the people, so it is great. would go back to that hostel defenetely.

comments the hostel was fantastic! it was really more of a hotel. had own attached bathroom which had a window that looks up to the skies. our room was beautiful and the corridors were beautifully lit by heart shaped lamps! there are no lifts though so if u hv lots of baggage, it will be pretty bad. cuz its on the 5th floor. we were lucky enough that the receptionist helped with our baggage!24 hours receptionist so its good!

comments Having read some of the previous reviews I was unsure as to what to expect. The hostal was in an excellent location and near to all the main sights.The room was clean and cleaned every day.I had a single and there was ample space. The communal toilet/shower was clean, the shower was lovely and hot. The breakfast was an added bonus. All the staff were friendly. I have travelled extensively and for the location and price I could not fault this place. I would definately stay here again

comments ottimi il rapporto qualità prezzo e la posizione. Edificio modesto ma camere dignitose e pulite. Le stanze singole con bagno in camera hanno doccia, lavabo e vater nella stanza, intendendo che non sono divisi con una porta dal vano abitativo, ma lo spazio è ben sfruttato e la zona letto risulta comunque vivibile. Colazione inclusa; disponibili latte caldo e freddo, caffè, tè, cacao, merendine confezionate assortite. Personale disponibile ed ambiente giovanile, vivamente consigliabile se non cercate lo sfoggio.

comments The hostal was clean and the room was a good size. I found the atmosphere a little strange. I know it´s part of their theme, but the whole place (reception, hallways, rooms) was dimly lit and the main lights in my room were red and came from flower lamps mounted behind the bed. I wouldn´t go out of my way to recommend the place to someone, but it´s fine for it´s price and location.

comments Hostel was centrally located, right in the Chueca neighborhood. It's kind of kitchy--pink and red walls, but the important thing is it was very clean and the staff, despite not speaking much English, were very nice and helpful. This hostel was a great value--we stayed in a private double room without a bathroom, and my only gripe would be that we had to walk across the lobby to get to the toilet and shower. If our room had been closer to it I would give a 5/5. I would stay there again if I go back, for sure. It was about $50/night, I dont think we could have found something as central, clean, and comfortable as La Dolce Vita.

comments 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!

comments 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.

comments 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

comments Hostal Dolce Vita was not as clean as I expected. Had the bookassist.com highlighted this issues, I would have chosen another place to stay.

comments 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.

comments 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.

comments 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.

comments 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

comments 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.

comments 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!

comments 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.

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

comments L'hôtel Dolce Vita offre un bon rapport qualité prix. le personnel est sympa, la déco est soignée et très "romantique", les chambres sont grandes et l'ensemble est très propre. L'hôtel est bien situé en centre-villeet par rapport aux monuments (près du paseo del prado, de gran via...), dans un quartier très animé en particulier le soir. Les points négatifs: chambres assez bruyantes (donnant sur la rue très fréquentée le soir), hôtel au 4ème étage (il faut grimper! donc difficile quand on est chargé, âgé ou handicapé), et le ptit déj est frugal (jus de fruits, boisson chaude, corn flakes et biscuits secs).

comments Estuvimos estas navidades. Se encuentra muy céntrico y por tanto se puede ir caminando a la mayoría de sitios. Cálido encuanto al trato y económico, pero no pidaís una habitación doble con 2 camas, resulta extraordinariamente estrecha. Ah! y se pasa un poco de frio por las tarde.

comments Althoug our stay was satisfactory, I believe that it would help future customers to be more specific on certain details. For example, these facilites are located in the oficially gay sector of Madrid, not necessarily desirable for some families. The pictures are not too loyal to the ral thing ( the photos give you a different impression of this hostal which can at times be a little dark. Still, it´s not to be completely disregarded.

Para empezar las fotos de la web no sé a qué habitación corresponde, pero a la que nos tocó a mi marido y a mí, desde luego que no. El baño era muy pequeño y la ducha y la mampara estaban rotas. La habitación, las camas y la decoración necesitaban un toque más moderno y nuevo, el colchón era una basura de verdad

comments The Hostal is in a perfect location for shopping and nightlife although, it resides in a street teeming with bars so it's loud in the evening. I used the ceiling fan to drown out the sounds from outside, which was fine as it was a hot evening anyway. The single room I was in was really clean and comfortable, although basic. The shared bathroom was clean. The staff were helpful enough. Highly recommended if you are on a budget and want to stay in the midst of the Madrid action!

comments On arrival from Seville the Hostal was difficult to find using the directions provided. The staff were not inviting and the stairs to the accomodation were dangerous and needed replacing. I would not consider room value for money and considering it was supposed to be on suite the facilities were dire - the fan was broken, linen and towels were past their best and the noise within the hostel went on until after 4am keeping me awake all night and I conseqently booked out the following morning after breakfast which again was not up to standard.
