The Sunotel Amaral is a mid-range property in the financial district, near the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. It has 116 bright, basic rooms with generic -- and slightly dated -- decor, along with flat-screen TVs, safes, and individual air-conditioning units. There's a nice outdoor pool open seasonally, but it is shared with the apartment building next door and the hotel only offers limited daily passes. Business travelers might find the location in northern Madrid convenient, but those who want to explore the city on foot might prefer a more centrally located property.

The 89-room Zenit Abeba is a modern, comfortable hotel in the fashionable Salamanca district. Rooms feature fresh decor including plush headboards, flat-screen TVs, and modern bathrooms. Additional hotel perks include free Wi-Fi, a big, cozy lobby with plenty of lounge space, a bar, casual restaurant, and a bright fitness center. While the color scheme might be on the dark side (and not to everyone's taste), this mid-range, up-to-date hotel offers great value. The stylish Zenit Abeba is within walking distance of several restaurants and shops, but most attractions require a drive or subway ride. Those looking to stay in the center of the action may consider Sol, where there are several mid-range options such as the Petit Palace Mayor Plaza.

Ideally located in the heart of Madrid across from the Parque del Retiro, the luxury boutique hotel Hospes Madrid is a high-design haven within walking distance of attractions, public transport, restaurants, and high-end shops. Spacious rooms follow the hotel’s theme of modern-vintage, with velvets, metallics, and soothing colors blending harmoniously. Large bathrooms are decked out in elegant marble tile-work, deep soaking tubs, and walk-in showers, although the lack of proper doors reduces privacy in a way that can be a turn-off for some. Outside the rooms, the hotel is equally luxurious, with a full-service spa with a hammam and pool, an award-winning restaurant/bar with outdoor seating, and bicycles to borrow. The over-the-top concierge services are a highlight, and the 24-hour room service and front desk are extra perks. On-site parking and shuttles cost fees.
