Fodor's Review:

Virginia Woolf was among the first luminaries to discover this hotel in the middle of the old city's bar-and-restaurant district. Since then, the Inglés has attracted more than its share of less-celebrated artists and writers. Half of the rooms were tiled and painted in 2005, and new bathrooms were installed, but the decor still resembles the ornate and outdated lobby. The suites, which are double rooms with a salon, are nonetheless a bargain. You get twice the space for what you'd pay for a standard double elsewhere. Also, if your room faces Calle Echegaray, you can get an unusual aerial view of the medieval quarter, which is all red tiles and ramshackle gables. Pros: Huge rooms by local standards, centrally located. Cons: Outdated decor, noisy street.
