Catalonia Las Cortes or Suite Prado Madrid?
Hi all,
Does anyone have a reco on which of these two Madrid hotels is a better choice? The Catalonia Las Cortes looks lovely, but we have the smallest room category and are afraid it will be tiny. The Suite Prado looks spacious, but of course will have lesser amenities. Has anyone stayed at either? We have reservations at both, and need to make a choice. We're in Madrid only three nights, and we're doing a day trip to Toledo, so convenience to the museums, etc is key.
Thanks!

The Hotel Suite Prado belongs to the Lope de Vega hotel group and is usually meant for longer stays. The Catalonia Las Cortes is better for shorter stays, but both are located close to the museums you're interested in visiting, as well as to Atocha station. The hotels are about a 3-minute walk from each other.

I stayed at the Catalonia Las Cortes for five nights in Oct 2011. My double bed room was a good size with a large, marble bathroom and juliet balcony. Don't think I had a room upgrade. Nice hotel and a great location for a first trip to Madrid.

Thanks for your replies.
BowenLinda, our double room is listed at 205 sq feet. Pretty small. I don't think it has a balcony. Perhaps you were upgraded or had a deluxe double? I really do love the look of this hotel.
Robert2533, any idea if the Suites hotel has helpful staff, etc? Is there another reason it's meant only for longer stays.?
Anyone else with knowledge of these hotels?
Thank you so much!
