Plan your stay at Hostal Hispalense

Guest house in Madrid with soundproofed rooms, air conditioning and family options, a few minutes’ walk from Plaza Mayor and Mercado de San Miguel.

Room types

The room options include double rooms with two single beds or one double bed, a single room and two quadruple configurations, all with private bathrooms and air conditioning. The rooms are 16 m², except for the single room, which is 9 m²; capacity ranges from one to four people. Soundproofing is included throughout, and some rooms overlook an interior courtyard.

The differences lie in the layout and a few details: one quadruple room has four bunk beds, while the other combines a double bed with two bunk beds. The double rooms have a TV, and one of them also has a fridge; the twin and single rooms overlook the courtyard. Tiled floors and a bathroom with a shower or bath complete this compact offering, suitable for solo travellers, couples and small groups looking to stay in central Madrid.
