The Hostal Persal is built in a building dating to 1871 which preserves its original structure, and has 80 bedrooms. It is located in the Barrio de las Letras, in the very heart of the historical and tourist centre of Madrid. 100 metres from the Puerta del Sol, beside the Plaza de Santa Ana and very close to the Plaza Mayor and the Prado, Thyssen and Reina Sofa museums.. The Hostal Persal is located in a pedestrianised area with access for taxis and private vehicles to its doorstep. There are two public car parks just 50 metres from the hostal (Plaza Santa Ana and Plaza Jacinto Benavente). The Plaza de Santa Ana is famous for being an area for tapas and nightlife.

March/2012 Someone from United States thinks:

  • Overall rating: 3.1
  • Would you recommend it? No
  • Positive: Clean
  • Negative: Rude staff, verrrrrry strict about any type of guests, I felt like I was treated worse than the other guests because I was younger, although I was still a paying customer
  • I RECOMMEND it for...

  • Common facilities and services: 7.5
  • Staff: Not rated The staff was the only reason I wouldn't go back. I had several incidents where they were extremely rude to and it was completely unwarranted. A friend of mine was attacked outside of the hostel very late at night, and the staff at the front desk not only did nothing about it but would not even let him enter to wash the blood off himself.
  • Quietness: 5
  • Room: 2.5 Fairly small but clean
  • Value for money: 2.5 The way I was treated was not worth the money. I felt that I was treated so differently as a younger person, and I believe an American (although I am well traveled and behaved myself as such), and for the price, that is unforgivable.
