Nyx Hotel Madrid By Leonardo Hotels

The reception staff was incredibly professional and welcoming. The bed was unbelievably comfortable and the water pressure/shower setup was better than we usually get in the States let alone in Europe. A very funky and off-the-beaten boutique hotel.

No complaints.

We chose this hotel due to its proximity to the Quatro Caminos Metro train stop and the apartment where our daughter is living with a family while studying in Madrid. The location is absolutely fabulous because you can get to every location easily by either Metro or by walking or by taxis, it has a nearby shopping district with all the major stores (including Corte Ingles with its fabulous Gourmet market), and there are loads of charming restaurants right on or near the hotel’s street. We learned at the hotel that NYX is a boutique chain out of Germany and has only two hotels in Spain: This one and another in Bilbao. Loved their wild animal elevator decor theme. The staff was very very warm, welcoming and professional. Jose and Leo were so easy-going as were their many friendly colleagues. They are all great ambassadors for Madrid. The most comfortable beds and the shower and WATER PRESSURE WERE ABSOLUTELY DIVINE—Not so easy to find in Europe. And they installed very very thick double-paved windows so we heard no street noise at night.

Our only complaint was that the Wi-Fi was intermittent.
