El hotel es bueno,pero excesivamente ruidoso (ya que esta ubicado en una zona altamente concurrida por jovenes).El televisor de la habiitacion es muy antiguo y de 14 pulgadas a lo mas;ademas de ser blanco y negro y de tener solo 3 a 4 canales.Desayuno bien salvo que no hay fruta ni huevos revueltos. |

Las habitaciones superiores muy nuevas y modernas, el inconveniente del ascensor que no llega a las plantas superiores y hay que subir andando, el comedor para el desayuno en la ultima planta y muy pobre ademas eramos 6 personas y teniamos que desayunar en mesas separadas, no querian juntar dos mesas, poca amabilidad en el comedor. |

I was extremely pleased with the modern, high quality room and amenities it offered. It was the nicest room of my 3-country trip. The bathroon was huge and state of the art. The hotel was very central and in a busy area, however, the double-paned glass helped to keep the noise down. The rest of the hotel reflects an old world charm as it has not been renovated. The only disappointed was the breakfast as it was limited and not of the best quality. Overall, I would recommend Hotel Francisco and I would stay there again. This property was 3+ stars. |

In generale l'impressione è positiva, la doppia nella quale ero era di dimensioni normali e il letti confortevoli, il bagno sempre pulito, la colazione buona e abbondante.
Ma stanno ristrutturando l'hotel per cui la mattina si sentiva rumore. Il piano dove eravamo noi era attraversato da crepe piuttosto evidenti. I piani superiori erano probabilmente già ristrutturati e le camere apparivano moderne e confortevoli. La tripla che avevamo (eravamo in cinque) era troppo piccola per tre persone ma aveva la vista sulla via principale. Tutto il personale è molto gentile.

I went once for holidays and I was surprised by a really nice room. Recently I went back to Madrid for Business and I got a kip. Reason: they are remodelling the hotel, however you wont get any warning. |

Very clean hotel with an ideal location and very friendly staff. The only complaint would be the noise, as there was some refurb work being done when I was there and the builders would be starting at around 7.30-8am. This won't be all year round though obviously, and other than that i've no complaints about the hotel and would certainly stay there again. |

Excellent value for the location. Unpromising from the outside, but very quiet inside. Comfortable, well appointed room. A good night's sleep. Very clean. Staff extremely helpful. Only complaint - breakfast. Coffee weak, orange squash served in place of orange juice, small selection compared to most Spanish hotels.
Note - they are currently (April 2008) extending the 6th floor, so if you arrive early in the morning and need to sleep during the day you will experience builders' noise. |

As other reviews have stated this hotel is situated in an absolutely wonderfully central position in Madrid. Yes, the pedestrian precinct where the hotel stands, is a busy one and at night, like any capital city, there is noise.
The hotel itself is beautifully furnished. We had a newly refurbished twin room on the 5th floor with a glass ensuite which was a novelty! The lounge is very attractive likewise the dining room where we enjoyed a perfectly adequate continental bareakfast.
All the staff were extremely helpful and we would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to visit Madrid. We only hope we are lucky enough to find a similar hotel in as good a location when we try to book a few days in Instanbul in the summer and Rome in the autumn. |

Hotel Francisco 1 is superbly placed in the historic quarter, close to the Plaza Major and two Metro stations. The rooms are basic but spotless. The continental breakfast was plentiful and of good quality and available most of the morning. The hotel can be a little noisy at night, both from the adjacent pedestrianised street area and from other guests slamming doors, but this is no more than we have experienced elsewhere in the world in a city centre location. A very reasonably priced shuttle service is bookable through the hotel to the airport. We would recommend this as a good tourist class hotel. |

The hotel is ideally situated near the old centre. Our room overlooked a busy pedestrian street and so it was quite noisy at times but we were prpared for that and the view from the balcony was fascinating. The room was very clean and comfortable. |

the hotel is perfectly situated. due to the location within a pedestrian zone the noise from outside is restricted to peolple passing by. however still enough loud to make ear plugs undispensable (we had a room on the first floor). otherwise it was clean and apart from the night clerk people in the hotel were very friendly. the breakfast was very basic. |

we checked in at night and got a little small room right next to the big washing machine, who maked a lot of noise in the morning. The next day we changed room, and it was great. A cornerroom with a lot of light. The breakfast buffet is okay, nothing fancy. The personale were very nice. An okay hotel, if you dont expect too much. |

We happened to be lucky and were given a room in a new section of the hotel on the fifth floor that had just been completed. Unfortunately the elevator does not go to the fifth floor so we had to take our bags up one flight of stairs. It was noisy since our room faced the street and it was a holiday weekend with many people partying until the wee hours of the morning. All in all we enjoyed our stay, liked the hotel very much and would stay there again. The hotel is well located which was a big plus. |

La ubicación del Hotel es perfecta, a 2 minutos de Sol; en un paseo estás en el centro. Pero la gran desventaja del hotel: por la noche muchísimo ruido en la calle (hay varios pub)... Y cuando por fin termina el ruido exterior, comienza el escándalo en el pasillo.... El servicio de limpieza es extremadamente escandaloso. |
