"Think of a Best Western and you might think boring, typical, bare amenities, well, not here at the Arosa."
Star Service
"Gran Via is one of the top neighborhoods for tourists. Yes, the location is the biggest benefit here, but the rates are hard to beat in central Madrid." Full review

Frommer's
"The rooms of this boutique hotel and bar are bright and designer-ish, with a Moorish theme. The accommodation is set around a much more traditional courtyard." Full review

Make sure you get an upstairs room, either overlooking the street (great views but noisier) or the courtyard (quieter but smaller). Avoid the small ground-floor bedroom right beside the restaurant.
